An ambitious budget for a stronger Europe: 2028-2034

These are not temporary but reflect systemic geopolitical and economic shifts that require a strong and forward-looking response. 

Hence, the European Commission presented today its proposal for an ambitious and dynamic Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF). This framework will equip Europe with a long-term investment budget matching its ambitions to be an independent, prosperous, secure, and thriving society and economy over the coming decade.

At the same time, the Commission is launching a structured reflection process for the review of the EU Anti-Fraud Architecture. The review complements the preparatory work on the next MFF. Its aim is to ensure a strengthened and more efficient protection of the Union’s financial interests.

President Ursula von der Leyen stated: 

“Our new long-term budget will help protect European citizens, strengthen Europe’s social model and make our European industry thrive. In a time of geopolitical instability, the budget will allow Europe to shape its own destiny, in line with its vision and ideals. A budget that supports peace and prosperity and promotes our values is the best tool we can have during these uncertain times.”
