There will be a large debt to pay. The regions are dealing with economic decline and the exodus of their youth. The unemployment rate is rising.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3966810\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Why does the government not take advantage of historically low interest rates to boost the power and financial capacity of all our regions, not just urban areas?</p>",
