Amendment 86 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 17
Paragraph 17
17. Reiterates that, despite Parliament’s demands to place the EURI over and above the ceilings, the refinancing costs are paid from within Heading 2b; notes that, in a context of rising interest rates, the line dedicated to the EURI financing costs is likely to be needed in full and needs may well exceed the budgeted amount; deplores the fact that this has a de facto impact on programmes under the same heading by constraining the Commission’s ability to propose above-financial programming reinforcements where they are needed; notes that EURI financing costs should not be taken from special instruments, which are intended to tackle unforeseen challenges, such as the consequences of the war in Ukraine and the energy crisis; reminds in this respect, that cohesion and Common Agricultural Policy cannot be the source of the financing, since this would endanger the implementation of long-term objectives;

Points out that implementation of NextGenerationEU programmes after three years of the start of the COVID-19 pandemic is still lagging behind, e.g. only 100 billion euros have been allocated from the Recovery and Resilience Facility; reminds again in this respect of the high inflation rates and increasing energy prices, as well as an economic crisis threatening the European Union; urges the European Commission to accept and immediately start financing the implementation of national recovery plans; calls in this respect for all EU funds to be transferred immediately to the Member States without conditions.

46. Emphasises the need to increase funding for Western Balkan countries in the framework of the Instrument for Pre- Accession Assistance to support economic growth and employment and also as a geopolitical priority, especially in the context of Russia’s unprovoked war of aggression against Ukraine, which resonated strongly across the region, but insists on the conditionality requirements regarding rule of law for every euro committed in the 2023 budget;
