Draft guidelines reviewed by Euronews suggest that Hungary may be affected by new rule of law requirements for payments in the upcoming budget cycle, which were put out by European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen on Wednesday. These requirements may potentially shut off further financial sources from Brussels.
Unconditional adherence to the rule of law is required, and this applies to all EU budget bases. We’ll go beyond, though, with the upcoming multiannual budgetary framework,” von der Leyen stated. We are prioritising the rule of law and fundamental rights for change and as a requirement for investment in the National Regional Partnership Plans. She went on, “This will be about smart conditionality.
Von der Leyen pointed out that the National and Regional Partnership Plans (NRPs) package is the largest item in the seven-year budget plan, accounting for approximately half of all spending, or €865 billion, provided the budgetary estimates are approved as proposed.
In order to be granted projects, a member state will need to adhere to EU basic principles, according to the draft regulations that Euronews was able to access. Article 2 of the EU Treaty on Fundamental Rights, which is cited in this regulation, stipulates that member states are not permitted to disregard the principle of gender equality.
