L’intervista a @CoR_President Kata Tütto: «La Coesione deve restare una politica europea con una dotazione autonoma. L'Italia è centrale nel negoziato sul bilancio Ue post 2027» https://t.co/JYQkxGSGmK

[Kata Tüttő @CoR_President]

I reject the labelling of Cohesion Policy as a “policy of the past”. It is a competitiveness investment policy that sees places, builds their capabilities and connects them to Europe’s economy.

The next #EUBudget risks replacing that ambition

[Kata Tüttő @CoR_President]

Europe’s promise is shared prosperity: that every region has a chance to contribute to —and benefit from— our competitiveness. Cohesion Policy keeps that promise alive. Breaking it makes Europe fragile. A clear message from 17 Member States that the next EU budget must heed.

[Kata Tüttő @CoR_President]

Today’s #SOTEU contains an important recognition: Europe’s transformations are experienced differently from one territory to another.

AI opportunities are unevenly distributed. Climate vulnerability is territorial. Industrial transformation happens in places.

It is a huge honour to receive on behalf of the @EU_CoR the Carlos V award #PremioCarlosV

At a time of multiple challenges, local leadership is key to strengthen the EU. This award recognizes the essential role of local leaders in that mission.

El accidente de tren en Adamuz es una terrible tragedia.

Los líderes locales y regionales de la UE nos solidarizamos con las víctimas, sus familias y toda Andalucía. Compartimos su dolor y expresamos nuestro apoyo a los servicios y responsables que ayudan en el terreno

At #COP30 in Brazil meeting mayors delivering climate action 🌎

[António Costa @eucopresident]

Tomorrow, for the first time, the European Council will hold a discussion on housing policy.

This is crucial to strengthen our social and democratic cohesion and to enhance the competitiveness of our economy.

In the #SOTEU Cohesion is already gone.
Just days ago @vonderleyen said it belongs to the heart of the EU

And the budget proposal rips the heart out, slices it into 27 pieces, and hands it in a bag to the capitals.

Europe left with a brain in a jar.
Draghi totally misunderstood

“Ceci n’est pas un budget EUROPÉEN” - @CoR_President sur le sujet de la proposition de la Commission 🇪🇺 pour la cadre financier 2028-2034 pour @sauvonsleurope https://t.co/sTd4JNzV9G

Jacques Delors’ 100 anniversary🇪🇺

We remember his words: Cohesion is the desire to ensure that the (EU) Community takes responsibility for reducing disparities between regions (…) because it is a condition of European unity, a condition for the realization of the single market

[European Newsroom (enr) @enr_newsroom]

In @enr_newsroom's Question Corner, @CoR_President said the European Commission's EU budget proposal ushered in "a big wave of centralisation".

She said she "will fight for a stand-alone long-term cohesion policy".

Watch the latest edition of #enr_eu's Question Corner👇

[Kata Tüttő @CoR_President]

Now we understand the secrecy: from behind the simplification smoke a MONSTER plan emerges to swallow cohesion policy and crack its backbone by nationalising and centralising

[Kata Tüttő @CoR_President]

🇹🇷 As President of the @EU_CoR, I am deeply concerned by the wave of arrests targeting opposition mayors in Türkiye.

We stand ready to intensify our cooperation with all our Turkish partners to promote local democracy, stability, and social peace.

[Kata Tüttő @CoR_President]

Great to read this article by @sarirautio: Putting regions at the heart of Europe’s next budget

We need strong engagement of regional and local authorities in the design and delivery of EU funds and policies in the next MFF

[Kata Tüttő @CoR_President]

I have the bad feeling that from behind the smoke of simplification and efficiency a "Big Ugly Bill" will emerge in form of a smaller, weaker #EUBudget post 2027

[Kata Tüttő @CoR_President]

I strongly condemn today's developments as a breach of local democracy. I stand with Mayor @ekrem_imamoglu and support a vibrant democracy in Türkiye.

[Kata Tüttő @CoR_President]

The arrest of @ekrem_imamoglu & some 100 other people marks a disastrous day for Türkiye & another dramatic step in the erosion of the rule of law and local democracy.

I express my full solidarity & reiterate the @EU_CoR call to respect and protect democratically elected mayors.

[Kata Tüttő @CoR_President]

Ukraine is holding the frontline of freedom.

Neither Ukraine nor freedom are for sale.

We stand by Ukraine 🇪🇺🇺🇦
