After almost a month of Market Stall, appeals to responsibility and discussions about any “Plans B” that would have further divided Europe, Poland me Hungary seem willing to overcome the veto on the next budget of the Union to which Recovery Fund 750 billion of which Italy is the main beneficiary. Although it is still unclear if the rest of the EU will have to surrender and on what terms. Konrad Szymaski, The Polish Minister for Relations with the European Union, in fact, has made it known that “the German presidency has agreed with the Polish executive and has modified the content of the provision“Regarding the mechanism of conditionality on the rule of law, contested by the two countries of the Visegrad bloc. To the Prime Minister, Giuseppe Conte, “We can see a positive flash in the negotiations.” Also the President of the European Council, Charles Michel, said he was “confident that we can reach an agreement on a common package that will allow the rapid implementation of both the 2021-27 MFF and the Recovery Fund.”

According to Financial times we are working on an “interpretive rule” that allows the EU not to cancel the ea clause Viktor Orban me Mateusz Morawiecki to claim (at home) a political victory, stepping out of the corner they found themselves in after Brussels began work on the alternative plan for a “25” recovery fund. Although Orban claimed that he does not need the recovery funds that “are just loans”, the two countries are among the largest recipients of European funds each year and giving up the whole pie would be a boomerang.

In the morning, the Polish Deputy Prime Minister Jaroslaw Gowin, quoted by Bloomberg, had spoken of “an agreement between Warsaw, Budapest and Berlin”, which holds the rotating presidency of the Council of the EU. “I think the agreement can include the others 24 European capitalsBy Friday, at the end of the European Council, he had anticipated it. The turning point came on the eve of the crucial European council called to discuss coordination on Covid 19, but also how to proceed after the refusal of Budapest and Warsaw to link European funding to the respect for the rule of law. The news was not commented on by Germany or by the heads of government of Hungary and Poland. Gowin, who was the biggest supporter of abandoning the veto threat On the Polish side, he declined to go into detail, saying only that it holds “sovereign Poland and the EU united.”

The Italian premier, in his speech in the Senate with a view to the European Council, wanted to give an anticipation: “I anticipate you, diligently but with the utmost caution, that in the last hours it would seem that there is a positive opening in the negotiation – he said – I invite you to be careful because until the end we hope to read the proposal an interpretative declaration, shared by the two countries, on the conditionality of the rule of law. We cannot at all renounce what is already recognized and affirmed on the subject, it would be absolutely incompatible with the objectives and principles already enunciated ”.

Yesterday Orban, after the spokesman of the EPP group in the European Parliament Manfred weber had opened his expulsion from the party, wrote him a letter claiming that he wanted him relax relationships between your party Fidesz and the Popular Party group. The letter, published in the newspaper Nepszava, speaks of “differences of interests and communication problems” between Fidesz MEPs and the group’s presidency, for which less close relations will have to be reached in the future. Fidesz has been suspended from EPP for 2 years and Orban does so in first step out.
