EU leaders reach 7-year budget deal

After more than 24 hours of negotiations, European Council President, Herman Van Rompuy, announced Friday that the 27 members of the European Union have reached agreement on the EU budget framework for the next seven years. Van Rompuy's plan proposed to limit new spending commitments by Brussels to €960 billion, versus the €1.03 trillion originally sought by the European Commission and €12 less than the previous proposal. This way, the 2014-2020 budget agreement involves a €34 billion cut from current budget cycle, set at €994 billion. Analysts interpreted the agreement as a victory for the United Kingdom and net contributors to the EU budget.

It will be the first net reduction to the EU's long-term budget in the bloc's history, representing a decrease of around 3%on the last budget and shaving spending in areas from infrastructure to administration and scientific research. Even though the deal is done, the EU budget is not official yet, not until the European Parliament gives its approval, but leading legislators have already expressed opposition. The cuts agreed on Friday fell mainly on spending for cross-border transportation schemes, energy and telecommunications networks as well as the EU officials' salaries. On the other hand, spending on rural development has been increased by €1.5 billion. While Rajoy welcomed the deal and said it is beneficial for Spain, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said budget deal combines growth and consolidation and it is a good sign for investors. She said all 27 members backed budget agreement.-FXstreet.com
