Re Our proposals allow MS to use #Cohesion funds to support large enterprises (because innovation & added-value in these sectors are often led by larger firms)
However, this is limited to:
🔹less developed & transition regions
🔹developed regions only in MS w/ GDP/head <EU average

Re Support to innovation & deep tech is part of funds’ mission.
It remains totally voluntary. Regions are ones deciding.
Proposals create better conditions for those who want to do it & above all give chance to fiscally weaker MS/regions to invest in key sectors of future economy.

If we want our democracies to keep on working, we cannot leave people behind.
The EU was so much aware of it that special funds & instruments were created very early on to support weaker countries & regions compete in the 🇪🇺 single market➡️that's what #CohesionPolicy is about! https://n.respublicae.eu/France24_en/status/1672239457146216449

Glad to exchange w/ @EP_Regional on role of #CohesionPolicy funds in supporting 🇪🇺regions to invest in strategic technologies #STEP.
This remains voluntary &amp; mostly targeted to ensure competitiveness &amp; convergence. Cohesion logic is fully safeguarded.

Very happy to address the Coal Regions in Transition Initiative, at their Annual Political Dialogue.
A just transition for EU’s coal regions is key for the energy transition.
