Improving the implementation of cohesion policy through the mid-term review to achieve a robust cohesion policy post 2027 (debate)
Very good question. Because it's much easier to spend it on defence than to spend it on housing. The second thing is that I'm worried about who will control the spending in defence when on the national level, the Member States will say, but we have our security laws which are protecting us from disclosing the information on spending in defence. So, I see that for Member States it's much easier to grab into the defence than in the housing and energy transition.
