Commission President von der Leyen wants to radically restructure the EU budget. This will only strengthen the capitals and the EU Commission, warns the President of the Committee of the Regions, Tüttő – at the expense of regional funding.
Ms. Tüttő, the European Commission plans to present its proposal for the 2028-2034 budget on July 16. The regions are alarmed. Why?
Something is brewing that goes to the heart of regional policy. And it worries me all the more because the budget isn't being drawn up with the involvement of all EU Commissioners and those affected, but rather as a kind of secret project by von der Leyen.
