"The government will strive to improve the economic performances achieved in 2012, thanks to the reduction of the budget deficit of 24%", he said, on the other hand, noting that this government will opt for strengthening the state's revenues, thanks to a better tax and non-tax recovery rate.
Additionally, the new government will strive to reduce the disparities between the regions and overcome the difficulties impeding the implementation of several public projects, he added.
The government, he went on saying, will also endeavour to multiply job opportunities in the public and private sector, in such a manner as to create 90,000 jobs from now till the end of the year.
