EU Budget

Ahead of Commission's announcement on the recovery fund and EU budget to fight the economic fallout of the pandemic, we look at what the EU has put forward so far to help European countries rebound from the crisis.

While EU leaders asked the Commission to come up with a plan on the long-term recovery, they've signed off on a previously agreed 540 billion euro package to deal with the short term consequences of the economic downturn and insist it’s functioning by June 1st.

After a failed summit, the EU budget battle continues, but when will they meet again and what parts of the budget face the chop?

Portugal's PM António Costa is among leaders who do not want to see the EU's budget cut post-Brexit.

It could get fiery: European leaders are meeting in Brussels to agree the EU's next long-term budget.

Progress, but not big breakthrough. Trying to create a budget across the 19 economies of the eurozone is always a challenge.
