Problemet er, at vi til trods for et ganske fornuftigt budget, som kræver 115 milliarder i betalingsbevillinger, hvilket svarer til 1,04% af vores BNP, står over for et urokkeligt, stoisk Råd, som kun tænker på et, nemlig at der ikke skal røres ved de nationale budgetter!
However, the problem is that, despite a very reasonable budget, which requires EUR 115 billion in payment appropriations – a figure corresponding to 1.04% of our GDP – we will find ourselves confronted with an imperturbable and stoic Council, which has only one thing to say: hands off my national budgets!
