Strangely absent from the last European elections, the budgetary stakes should however make the Brussels news of the coming months. The European Council of December 2018 set the objective of adopting the multiannual financial framework (MFF) for the period 2021-2027 in the autumn of 2019; that of 21 June 2019 has postponed the horizon “before the end of 2019”.
