Spain issued a strong warning that one of the EU's flagship environmental funds risks losing its impact if it is absorbed into broader funding structures as negotiations over the multi-annual budget intensify, according to a document seen by Euronews.
In the document circulated ahead of environment ministers' meeting in Brussels on June 25, Spain called on EU countries to examine how the LIFE environmental fund — the bloc’s main funding instrument for climate and environmental action — can be safeguarded in the EU’s next long-term budget for 2028–2034.
