Budgetkommissæren bruger dette krav til at retfærdiggøre EUs endnu uhyrligere pengekrav fremsat før budgetforhandlingerne. Morale: Ret ikke ind efter vedtagne budgetter, hvis du er EU. Brug løs. Pengene tager vi bare på en (eller 2) efterbevillinger.
"The demand for extra (€4 billion) money, which comes just months after MEPs and ministers agreed to provide a further €7.3 billion to the original budget, is based on information submitted by governments estimating how much money will be needed to cover payments related to cohesion policy.
In a statement on Wednesday (25 September), EU budget commissioner Janusz Lewandowski said that the figures vindicated the European Commission’s demands for more resources."
