‘Choices need to be made’: EU Commission to propose simpler, more focused long-term budget

The European Commission is offering a,request for its next long-term budget (between 2028-34), aimed at simplifying the current 1.2 trillion euros MFF (€12,000 billion), which is a mere 1% of the European Union’s GDP (excluding post-pandemic recovery funds). The EU aims to reduce the budget by selecting “fewer, more focused” programs, emphasizing strategic sectors, technologies, and projects of common interest. Piotr Serafin admitted the budget should provide greater support for strategic investments while balancingpayer funding with public goods.

The current budget aims to tackle the socio-economic gap, prioritizing agriculture and social policies. However, this approach may face challenges with increasing investments in areas like security and defense, necessitating more resources. The EU’s priorities are shifting to include these traditionally neglected areas, which now demand more spending on global competitiveness. The EU must ensure every euro spent contributes meaningfully to EU priorities, advocating for a balanced approach that meets its fundamental mandate of maximising EU impacts.

The EU’s new proposal, detailed in the upcoming MFF, includes building a robust revenue base to address potential funding shortfalls. This includes potential options like(newValue研发) or forward entrepreneurship, as well as creating new “European exports.” The Commission emphasized the need for a “stronger revenue base,” highlighting that the current budget could fall short ofThis requires building a //stronger revenue base// €248 billion a year to meet the EU’s growing expenditure needs while incrementally addressinguate and accountability issues. To achieve this, the EU could explore稳步透明的技术升级且强调技术协同作用,以增强其在共同的欧洲利益中的领导地位。

Spain’s decision to double its budget by 2025 is a keyollection point, offering €30 billion annually, more than 20% of the main budget and similar to the investment capacity from post-pandemic recovery funds (approximately 1.7%). Spain is cautiously considering issuing debt for long-term projects, including strategic investments in defence and public goods, ambiguous by the Prime Minister’s Emilia-Romagna policies. This writ large is irresponsible, with critics suggesting it may jeopardize young EU generations and adolescent employment.

The EU’s plan for the next MFF is avoiding excess by advising smaller programs and a better-posed budget. The Previous design was much smaller and less recognized by EPWM, yet the EU这个人可能会担心 its future pays later. According to a new report from Eurekib Meghanetic Studies, the EU executives are in the final stages of drafting a “fewer, more targeted” budget proposal, with a Focus on “manageable projects” that can be scaled up without forcing gymnastics.

By highlighting these key points, the proposal seeks to “realign the EU budget with its core policy needs,” ensuring it remains balanced and manageable. This shift aims to prepare the EU for future challenges while prioritising the benefits of the MFF as the country transitions to a new era of global governance. The EU remains committed to a “stronger revenue base,” future innovation, and a high-quality assessment of its public projects. This vision is essential to sustain它的 future health and resilience in the face of increasing complexity.
