Proposals for the next EU budget

The next EU budget (MFF), the cornerstone of the EU’s policy action, must respond to today’s multiple challenges by directing public spending towards building a more resilient, just and sustainable economy. It must also focus on making good use of the EU’s limited financial resources by following the horizontal principles of solidarity, cohesion, a just transition, human rights, transparency, partnership, ‘do no significant harm’ and ‘leave no one behind’.
