Revamped EU long-term budget for a changing world
This report calls for a revamped long-term EU budget to address new global challenges and meet citizens' expectations for a more responsive Union.
The budget affects all EU citizens by aiming to finance European public goods and support major challenges like security, climate change, and economic competitiveness.
Key changes include a call for increased resources beyond the current 1% of GNI, a focus on European added value, and better coordination with national spending.
The report stresses the need for enhanced crisis response capacity, simplified rules for beneficiaries, and a stronger link between the rule of law and access to EU funds.
