Romania may struggle to fully utilize the estimated €60.2 billion for 2028-2034 due to technical provisions in the upcoming funding mechanism, warns MEP Victor Negrescu. He emphasizes the need for regional authorities to play a significant role in investment priorities and calls for reduced bureaucracy. Negrescu advocates for investments in infrastructure, health, education, and local development, citing the challenges faced during the National Recovery and Resilience Plan. He stresses the importance of early consultations and project preparations for the next EU budget cycle, while EU lawmakers push for an ambitious budget addressing economic and security challenges.
