Financing of the annual action plan in favour of the United Republic of Tanzania for 2026

✦ AI Parliament objected to the Commission's plan to finance the 2026 annual action plan for Tanzania, blocking the measure. MEPs argued the draft decision exceeds the Commission's implementing powers and is inconsistent with EU law. They also said the plan fails to address Parliament's earlier concerns about human rights and accountability in Tanzania. Parliament called on the Commission to withdraw the draft and submit a new one that protects basic services, human rights, democracy and civil society.

InvestEU Fund strategic investments in the field of defence

✦ AI The Commission delegated regulation of 28 August 2025 broadens the definition of eligible strategic investments under the InvestEU Fund to include more defence technologies and products for military use, and extends eligibility to entities in associated countries or controlled by non-associated countries under certain conditions.

Parliament had asked the Commission to refrain from using delegated acts to change InvestEU's scope and to submit any further changes as a legislative proposal under the ordinary legislative procedure.
