Victor Negrescu, leading negotiator on the EU budget 2025 for the Parliament, said:
“This is the first annual budget after the recently revised Multiannual Financial Framework of the EU for the period 2021-2027. Our group regards it not as spending but as an investment in people and business in times of growing uncertainties and populism both in Europe and the rest of the world
“The numbers speak for themselves: EU budget 2025 works for people and provides adequate funding for their needs. Today, the member states approved, in the Council of the EU, the political agreement we had reached on next year’s budget."
