Amendments (1)
Amendment 35 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 7
Paragraph 7
7. Considers that these new own resources are necessary to avoid the next generation of Europeans paying the price for the repayment of the principal and the interest of the funds borrowed under NGEU, either through an increased burden on taxpayers or via cuts in regular EU programmes directly affecting beneficiaries and project-holders; notes the legitimate demand by Europeans for more social and tax justice; reiterates its strongly-held position that the costs of EURI borrowing and the repayment of debt should be placed over and above the MFF ceilings and warns against any attempt to reduce funding for ordinary EU policies to make space for the repayment of EU debt, as this would endanger long-term EU goals, such as economic convergence, research and innovation or the green transition;
