Germany said that the EU budget cuts of €159 billion are not enough
The Irish presidency of the EU Council proposed cutting the bloc’s next seven-year budget for 2028–2034 by about 8% and reducing it by €159 billion in current prices compared with the European Commission’s nearly €2 trillion proposal. Germany and its allies in the «frugal» group said that this is not enough for an agreement.
