"The funding for the EU's external policy instruments is being cut the most (about 17%), as well as funds allocated for competitiveness, scientific research, security, and defense (about 13%). Meanwhile, funding for agriculture and cohesion policy, which already make up the largest part of the EU budget, is set to be reduced by only 3%." According to MEP Rasa Juknevičienė, even though the future EU budget would be about 30% larger than the current one, it would not be enough to address the current challenges. #ESbiudžetas #Airija #Europarlamentarai (translated)
