Christophe HANSEN, European Commissioner for Agriculture and Food, and by Céline IMART (EPP, FR), André RODRIGUES (S&D, PT), Rapporteurs, close the joint debate on CAP. The proposed changes to current EU common agricultural policy (CAP) rules seek to relieve farmers of unnecessary and time-consuming administrative obligations. To cut the red tape still further and make the rules clearer, MEPs want more flexibility in how farms can apply the CAP’s environmental rules and propose to increase the maximum limits for support for small farmers. The amendments to the rules on the common organisation of markets in agricultural products (CMO) would strengthen farmers’ contractual position in the food supply chain and thus stabilise their income. In their report, MEPs clarify when agricultural products can be called “fair” or “equitable” and when to use the term “short supply chain” on labels or in advertising.

MEPs call on the EU to use frozen Russian assets to support Ukraine and accelerate the phase-out of Moscow’s energy. During the first debate with representatives of the Polish Council Presidency and the European Commission MEPs are set to renew their calls to move from freezing Russian assets to seizing them and using them to support and rebuild war-torn Ukraine. Following Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, the EU, the U.S. and its allies froze over 300 billion U.S. dollars in Russian sovereign assets, with roughly 200 billion dollars held in the Belgium-based securities depository Euroclear. In July 2024, the EU made available the first €1.5 billion transfer of interest generated from immobilised Russian assets to support Kyiv, which was channelled through the European Peace Facility and to the Ukraine Facility to support Ukraine's military and reconstruction efforts.

Roberta METSOLA, EP President, participates in the ceremony for the commemoration of the 80th Anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge. This news item shows extracts from the ceremony at the American Military Cemetery of Hamm (Luxembourg). On 16 December 1944, German units attacked the American front line in the Ardennes, which covered the North of Luxembourg and the East of Belgium. It was the prelude to one of the bloodiest battles of the Second World War: the Battle of the Bulge. Thousands of American and German soldiers lost their lives in the unforgiving combats that took place in one of the harshest winters in known history.
