European Commission to Tweak Fiscal Rules to Boost EU Defense Spending

Von der Leyen apre alla Conferenza sulla sicurezza di Monaco allo scorporo delle spese per la difesa europea dal Patto di Stabilità

EU/EN - Since the three-day Munich conference in Germany was a security conference, the main topic of discussion was how to end the war in Ukraine. European top diplomats discuss what a plan for Ukraine could look like. 

The controversy over the tariffs announced by Trump seemed overshadowed in Munich by the uproar caused by the statements of US Vice president Vance, who came to Germany for the important summit. Meanwhile, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz rejected working with the far right after a divisive speech by US VP Vance on Friday. His implicit support for the right-wing populist Alternative for Germany (AfD) party was seen by Scholz as an unprecedented intervention in the domestic politics of an allied country, just over a week before the German elections.

Also in the foreground was the discussion on investments and resources to be deployed for greater strategic autonomy of the European Union. Shaken by the criticisms of US Vice President Vance of EU policies of recent decades, Commission President Von der Leyen did not shy away from the discussion on the need for the EU to independently take care of its own military defense. In this context, Ursula Von der Leyen sensationally opened up to a separation of defense spending from the European Stability Pact.

The aim is to free up and allocate resources to strategies for consolidating military coordination between the armies of EU countries, with a view to a common defense. The announcement confirms that the European executive considers possible the prospect, feared by Trump, of a progressive reduction in the US contribution to NATO in Europe, with a consequent request for greater funding from European allies.

 

IT - Essendo la tre giorni di Monaco in Germania una conferenza sulla sicurezza, si è parlato principalmente di come metter fine alla guerra in Ucraina. Le polemiche sui dazi annunciati da Trump sono apparse offuscate a Monaco dal clamore suscitato dalle dichiarazioni del vicepresidente Vance, giunto in Germania per l'importante occasione. 

Le critiche di Trump  alle politiche Ue degli ultimi decenni sono state ripetute a Monaco dal vicepresidente Usa Vance, alimentando un confronto più concreto tra le Capitali europee sugli investimenti e le risorse da mettere in campo per una maggiore autonomia strategica dell'Unione europea.  La presidente della Commissione Von der Leyen non si è sottratta al confronto sulla necessità dell'Ue di badare in autonomia alla propria difesa militare. In questo quadro, Ursula Von der Leyen ha clamorosamente aperto ad uno scorporo dal Patto di Stabilità europeo delle spese per la difesa.  

Von der Leyen ha parlato di liberare e destinare risorse a strategie di consolidamento del coordinamento militare tra eserciti dei Paesi Ue, in vista di una difesa comune. L'annuncio conferma che l'esecutivo europeo reputa possibile la prospettiva, paventata da Trump, di progressivo ridimensionamento della contribuzione statunitense alla Nato in Europa, con conseguente richiesta di maggiori finanziamenti degli alleati europei.
