In this article, the author refers to many things that the Prime Minister of Belgium has said. The Prime Minister is to address foreign investors with a new message, "Belgium is back and strong." The author talks of how Belgium has regained its financial stability. Belgium has restored its financial credibility and has high hopes for the future. Not all is well though, as there are many bankruptcies and unemployment rates are high. However, things have improved greatly from the Belgium we saw two years ago.
I believe Belgium is experiencing a strong period of economic activity in their country. They are soon to flourish and grow. There are some facts that don't agree with this statement, such as the bankruptcies. Also there are the unemployment rates. However, foreign investment from companies looking to pursue investments in Belgium may assist with this.

This relates to Belgium's politics because it shows how the decisions made by Belgium's officials have been for the better. Things didn't just change on their own. There must have been a scheduled agenda. This would have come from their government. This means that Belgium must have a strong government to increase their financial standpoint as they have.
