Charles Michel: « Belgium is the center of the world this week »

The Red Devils, who will face the French team on Tuesday night in the semi-finals of the World Cup football, « are a beautiful business card for Belgium, » said Prime Minister Charles Michel, interviewed in Morning First, on The First and BX1.

« I have confidence, and I am convinced that we can win, » continued the Prime Minister, according to which « Belgium is gathered behind a cause that puts aside all our differences and leaves the community issues in the fridge. »

« Abroad, we often have a more positive image of Belgium than we have of ourselves, here in the country. Our assets are recognized. We must take advantage of it, » added Charles Michel, for whom the country will be « the center of the world this week, » additionally because of the NATO summit scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday in Brussels. For this, « the police are mobilized and everything is done to keep the situation under control, » said the Prime Minister.
