Summary/Abstract: The new proposal for the 2021-2027 EU budget includes debt issuance by the European Commission (EC) to support economic recovery in the Union. The Next Generation EU mechanism aims to raise €750 billion from financial markets. However, the consent of all Member States will be required. The main points of contention are how the funds will be distributed - in the form of grants or loans - and conditionality for the support. The proposal takes into account the increased funding for the Just Transition Fund or the Common Agricultural Policy for Poland.
