Bani mai mulți pentru estul României. Europarlamentar român: „Cofinanțarea trebuie să ajungă la 95%”

Romania may receive additional EU funds for its eastern border regions, with enhanced financing conditions for infrastructure and security projects. Proposed co-financing could reach 95%, or 100% for critical projects. Three development regions—North-West, North-East, and South-East—are affected by the Ukraine war and are targeted for these funds. Dan Motreanu advocates for increased funding without reducing current cohesion allocations, requesting a 30% pre-financing to ease local budget contributions. He also suggests dedicated allocations from relevant EU budgets and increased state aid for investing companies. The European Commission's EastInvest initiative aims to support investments in neighboring regions affected by geopolitical tensions.
