EU Parliament pushes for bigger long-term budget, new taxes
The European Parliament has voted to increase the EU's 2028–2034 long-term budget by 10% (adding nearly €100 billion to the European Commission’s proposed €2 trillion plan) and introduce new revenue streams—including digital levies, online gambling taxes, and cryptocurrency gain taxes—to prioritize funding for agriculture and poorer regions. This stance has clashed with member states like Germany and the Netherlands (part of the "frugal group"), which reject higher spending amid tight national budgets, calling for a smaller, prioritized budget focused on competitiveness against the US and China.
