Paragraph 2
2. Underscores that there is a clear consensus among the institutions that, in the wake of the unprovoked and unjustified invasion of Ukraine, the EU should provide the strongest possible social, economic and financial assistance to Ukraine, while addressing the economic and social consequences of the crisis within the Union and delivering the necessary support to its citizens; underlines, in this context, the shared Union goals of delivering on the socially just European Green Deal and the digital transition, scaling up defence cooperation and coordination, improving its strategic autonomy and energy independence and security, ensuring food security, and addressing the challenges caused by high inflation, notably for households at the lower end of the income distribution;

Amendment 218 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 25
Paragraph 25
25. Stresses that the MFF revision must not lead to any downwards revision of the pre-allocated national envelopes; emphasises the fact that the late agreement on the MFF for 2021-2027 and on the cohesion policy package, coupled with the COVID-19 crisis, led to a slow start to the programming process and the disruption of well-functioning projects, but not because of the policy itself; underlines that the delayed start does not in any way call into question the pivotal role and added value of cohesion policy as the essential Union investment policy and convergence instrument;
