In Brussels, were the eyes, in the last few days, mainly focus on the European herstelfonds, but in the meantime, population of the 27 heads of government are also on the EU budget for the next seven years. Night-time meetings, abandoned the negotiations. But what was that exactly? Five questions about the eu's multiannual financial framework (MFF).

Before the end of this year, the parties have reached an agreement on the new Eu multi-annual budget.

What is the height of the MULTIANNUAL financial framework be determined?

At this point, there is a proposal on the table from the Commission, which, in the long-term budget comes out to 1.074 billion euros. That is only a few tens of billions of dollars more than the previous budget. The negotiations for the MULTIANNUAL financial framework are known to be a difficult process. Even before the outbreak of the COVID-19 is passed, the negotiations are very difficult.

In may 2018, the European Commission presented its first proposal for the new MULTIANNUAL financial framework. In February 2020, reduced by the Commission in its MFF proposal, with tens of billions of euros. Currently in negotiations with the Eu heads of government, under the leadership of Council president Charles Michel, the contribution of the member states of the European union's budget.

The EU budget of the current MULTIANNUAL financial framework, which will run from 2014 to 2020, which amounts to around 1000 billion euros. That's about 1% of the total Eu gross domestic product (gdp). Gdp is the total gdp of all the member states of the eu.

What is the role of the coronaherstelfonds in the MULTIANNUAL financial framework? < / p> The coronaherstelfonds is linked to the long-term budget. European leaders have agreed to negotiated, therefore, at the same time, both of these packages. The costs of the MULTIANNUAL financial framework and the herstelfonds amount, together, in the order of 1.8 billion euros. In both of these procedures, member states could use their veto power, which allows individual member states to an agreement may apply. The netherlands participated in the two negotiations is very critical.

The coronaherstelfonds it was the last period of time to enter for the purpose of discussion. Countries such as the Netherlands, Denmark, Austria, the netherlands, Finland, norway, and Sweden, were not prepared to make more than 350 billion euros of gifts to accept. In addition, it demanded, among others, Mark Rutte, that the herstelfonds accompanied by reforms in the various European countries, such as Italy and Spain.

How does the Dutch government in the debate on the MULTIANNUAL financial framework? < / p> Prime minister mark Rutte revealed in the last time period is one of the most critical of European leaders on the EU budget. As the leader of the " fuel-efficient four-the Netherlands, Denmark, Austria, the netherlands, and Sweden), the Netherlands had been very critical of the eu's MFF proposal and the associated herstelfonds. For example, these countries are not in agreement with the increased the EU's budget. The Brexit should be less states to pay a higher EU budget.

As a guideline, and lowered Charles Michel, the European union's budget, recently, in order to meet the needs of critical countries. Also, you should 'contributors', such as the Netherlands, which is more about the EU than they are in subsidies to receive their rebate on the rebate of the EU-contribution will be preserved. This is for the Netherlands an important precondition for an agreement on the next MULTIANNUAL financial framework.

What will happen if no agreement is reached prior to the end of the year?

If, on January 1, 2021, no new MULTIANNUAL financial framework has been presented, the EU is still on a budget. A special line of writing to the European Commission each and every month as one-twelfth of the annual budget for the previous EU budget, must spend. The terms and amounts of the MULTIANNUAL financial framework by 2020, it will be maintained. The Board may also decide, in consultation with the Commission, the expenditure of more than one-twelfth of the annual budget to be approved.
