"We reject it from the start, as it does not take into account the new priorities" "The European Parliament firmly rejects the cuts proposed by the Irish Presidency of the EU Council to the future multiannual budget of the European Union. The negotiation package regarding the future multiannual budget of the European Union, presented today by the Irish Presidency of the EU Council, ahead of the European Council next week, provides for an 8% reduction compared to the initial budget proposed by the European Commission. At the same time, the proposed package does not consider the moderate 10% increase in the budget voted by the European Parliament in April. As the chief negotiator of the European Parliament, I send a clear message: this negotiation position cannot be accepted by Parliament. We reject it from the start, as it does not take into account either the new priorities, such as defense and competitiveness, or the traditional priorities, such as agriculture and cohesion,” said MEP Siegfried Mureșan in a message posted on his Facebook page on Saturday. #BugetEuropean #Irlanda #Romania (translated)
