   Ajouté: (22 a) On 9 March 2025, 11 Union Health Ministers signed a letter stating that the Critical Medicines Act must be expanded into an effective, full-scale strategic programme, backed by EU defence funding, to secure the continent’s strategic autonomy and that anything less would be a grave miscalculation that could turn the Union's dependence on critical medicines into the Achilles’ heel of Europe’s security. In that context, it is essential that the Critical Medicines Act and the newly proposed Critical Medicines Security Fund act as robust instruments and that part of their funding be embedded in broader EU defence spending plans, including the financial mechanisms in the new Rearm Europe Plan.
