Multiannual financial framework adopted and recovery package

On 17 December 2020, the EU Council adopted the regulation laying down the EU’s multiannual financial framework (MFF) for the years 2021-2027. Combined with the “Next Generation EU” recovery instrument, it will enable the EU to provide funding of an unprecedented amount of €1,800 billion to support the recovery after the Covid-19 pandemic and the EU’s long-term priorities.

The cohesion policy budget for 2021-2027 will amount to €330 billion (in 2018 prices). In addition, four of the five texts relating to 2021-2027 cohesion policy were adopted, notably the regulation laying down common provisions, the regulation concerning the ERDF and the regulation on European Territorial Cooperation (ETC, Interreg programmes).
