Changed20.

Changed34. Notes that the evolving geopolitical environment requires even more unity and solidarity among the Member States, especially when taking into account the security concerns of the EU and its Member States; considers that strengthening Europe’s security by reducing strategic dependencies remains essential to safeguarding the Union’s long-term resilience; supports the Commission’s efforts to move towards a more coordinated approach to defence; notes that the Security Action For Europe (SAFE) instrument establishes a loan facility of EUR 150 billion to support Member State investments in defence; regrets the fact, however, that the SAFE instrument was based on Article 122 TFEU, limiting parliamentary oversight; welcomes the fact that the net expenditure indicator excludes all national co-financing of EU-funded programmes, providing increased fiscal space for Member States to invest in the EU’s common priorities, as laid down in Regulation (EU) 2024/126311,2024/1263, thus helping to strengthen synergies between the EU budget and national budgets, thereby reducing fragmentation and increasing the overall efficiency of public spending in some areas, such as defence; stresses that Member States’ commitment to increase defence spending should not come at the expense of other EU common priorities;
