The European Commission has proposed its largest-ever budget for 2028–2034, totaling nearly €2 trillion, aiming to boost defense, support Ukraine, and enhance competitiveness. However, the plan has triggered widespread criticism across the EU, with major countries like Germany and Finland rejecting the proposal over concerns about spending priorities and fiscal responsibility. Environmental groups and farmers are alarmed by cuts to biodiversity and agriculture funding, fearing setbacks for sustainability and rural livelihoods. The budget also shifts more funds to newer eastern member states and doubles aid for Ukraine, while introducing new taxes and capping farm subsidies. Intense negotiations are expected as member states and stakeholders push back on the Commission's vision for Europe's future.
