EU budget proposal: a modern budget for a Union that protects, empowers and defends

The Commission proposed on Wednesday a pragmatic, modern, long-term budget for the 2021-2027 period. Regarding transport investments, the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) has been recognised as delivering European added value and the EU continues to invest in connectivity and in connecting Europe. The future programme will deliver connected, smart, sustainable, inclusive, safe and secure mobility. The proposed budget for CEF transport is €30.6 billion including a general envelope of €12.8 bn, and a cohesion fund allocation of €11.3 bn. In addition, the Commission proposes that the Union enhance its strategic transport infrastructures to make them fit for military mobility. A dedicated budget of €6.5 billion is foreseen through the Connecting Europe Facility.
