Siegfried Mureşan, Carla Tavares

A revamped long-term budget for the Union in a changing world

(2024/2051(INI))

Motion for a resolution

Paragraph 70 a (new)

Motion for a resolution

Amendment

70a. Draws attention to the fact that, in recent years, the Commission has been funding an increasing number of non-governmental organisations (NGOs) that are engaged in political activities, as the European Court of Auditors’ report has also highlighted, while the funding of NGOs has been carried out in a non-transparent manner; highlights the fact that this practice strongly contradicts the values of a genuine civil society; considers, therefore, that it is important for the requirements of transparency to be fully applied to contracts concluded by the Commission and all other EU institutions; demands that the funding of organisations that engage in political activities should be carefully scrutinised to avoid distorting European democracy and thus undermining voters’ faith in democratic values;

Paragraph 72 a (new)

Motion for a resolution

Amendment

72a. Demands that securing the EU’s external borders must be a top priority in the post-2027 budget, with a focus on preventing illegal migration, stopping the activities of human trafficking networks and putting in place an effective return policy; calls for stronger financial and operational support for frontline Member States’ border protection efforts, particularly those most affected by migratory pressures, while ensuring that border security remains the sovereign responsibility of national authorities;

Paragraph 72 b (new)

Motion for a resolution

Amendment

72b. Calls for the mobilisation of substantial Union funds and means to support Member States in reinforcing external border protection capabilities and infrastructure such as walls, means of surveillance, including aerial surveillance, and equipment; proposes that costs be covered to build and maintain physical border barriers that are an essential part of a comprehensive migration policy, which should aim at detaining asylum seekers at the external borders, preventing illegal entry and stopping human smuggling and hybrid attacks;

Motion for a resolution

Paragraph 76 a (new)

Motion for a resolution

Amendment

76a. Recalls with grave concern that the former Commissioner entrusted with negotiating the anti-corruption framework and the rule of law with Member States over the preceding five years is currently the subject of a criminal investigation for alleged money laundering and other corruption-related offences; condemns in the strongest terms the instrumentalisation of rule of law conditionality for politically motivated ideological assaults on Member States; emphasises that in these assaults, the Commission has demonstrably utilised and financed NGOs and left-leaning media outlets through Union funds; consequently demands an immediate cessation of these attacks against national sovereignty, which are perpetrated through the misuse of the rule of law conditionality;

Motion for a resolution

Paragraph 76 b (new)

Motion for a resolution

Amendment

76b. Expresses its firm opposition to the perpetuation of the current ‘rule of law conditionality system’ and, furthermore, to any proposals aimed at its reinforcement or expansion; recalls that any initiative seeking to strengthen or extend such conditionalities undermines the crucial objectives of simplification and enhanced competitiveness by imposing greater complexities and protracted delays on Member States seeking access to vital funding;
