In Finland, the indicator increased by 4.6 percentage points, to 82.1%. Significant growth was also observed in Slovakia (59.7%), Estonia (23.6%), Austria (81.8%) and France (113.1%), where the increase was more than 3 percentage points.

France, Italy (135.3%), Belgium (104.7%) and Spain (101.8%) also had debt exceeding the volume of their economies. At the same time, the national debt of Romania, Finland, Latvia, Estonia, Luxembourg and the Czech Republic turned out to be the largest in the last 10 years.
