The Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, Enzo Moavero Milanesi, met with the European Commissioner for Budget and Human Resources, Gunther Oettinger today at the Farnesina.\u00a0The talks focused on the EU Multiyear Financial Framework 2021-2027.<\/p>\n
The Commission\u2019s present draft \u2013 said Minister Moavero \u2013 appears to be inadequate because it does not sufficiently address the concerns and expectations of the citizens. Minister Moavero and Commissioner Oettinger agreed to proceed with the work while intensifying consultations on the policy objectives and the related priority budget targets.<\/p>\n
The Minister deems it advisable for the Commission to show greater courage in singling out additional sources to cover the financial resources of the EU budget. It is no longer justifiable that they mainly depend on the single contributions of each Member State as this takes resources away from national budgets. Instead, it would be opportune to develop new EU-originated \u201cown resources\u201d. For example, it could launch the systematic issue of especially designed EU financial instruments to be used to implement tangible investment projects to foster competitiveness. Another option could be to pass measures promoting a fair fiscal system on the basis of which those subjects that now skilfully dodge it by \u201cdribbling\u201d between the Member States\u2019 different tax systems could contribute to the EU budget.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
With respect to the expenditure for EU policies, Italy deems it essential to focus more attention on migration, primarily through the allocation of much larger resources for the socio-economic development of the Countries of origin and transit of migrants. In this respect, Minister Moavero pointed out that it is necessary to reverse the deplorable trend recorded in the last 30 years to reduce the flow of European funds to African countries. Also in respect of the EU\u2019s important public policies in favour of European regions and agriculture, the Commission\u2019s proposal does not adequately reflect Italy\u2019s needs, especially in its attempt to quickly make up for the divide that grew during the global economic crisis, especially in the South of Italy and in several agricultural sectors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, Enzo Moavero Milanesi, met with the European Commissioner for Budget and Human Resources, Gunther Oettinger today at the Farnesina.\u00a0The talks focused on the EU Multiyear Financial Framework 2021-2027.
