The EU's yearly budget must align with the Union's political priorities. Yesterday, @Europarl_EN adopted its position on the 2027 draft annual budget, last one under the current MFF. With @EUCouncilPress, they now have until 27 Oct to reach an agreement: europa.eu/!7RxjVP

The 2027 EU budget needs to provide predictable funding for agreed programmes and EU priorities, while leaving room for emergencies. Good to discuss these priorities today in Strasbourg with MEPs and @ThomasByrneTD as budget talks continue.

A modern #EUbudget is not about โ€œhow much do I put in, and how much do I get out?โ€ It is about what we can achieve together that no Member State can achieve alone. That is European added value. Read the text of the speech here: ec.europa.eu/commission/presโ€ฆ

In Jean Lemierre's view, Europe has the savings, the skills and the projects. From AI and digitalisation to the energy transition and defence, the challenge is not a lack of resources. It's connecting Europe's savings with the investments that will drive future growth. That is why connecting representatives from institutions, investors, and policymakers at an event like the Annual Capital Markets Seminar, is so important.
