Willkommen bei Europa Kompakt. In der heutigen Ausgabe: Die Haushaltsverhandlungen sind entscheidend für die Glaubwürdigkeit des Europäischen Parlaments, Liberale und Konservative werben um den neuen Präsidenten Rumäniens, Ylva Johansson spricht über ihren neuen Job.

Die Europäische Union hat sich gegen Israels Bestrebungen, im Iran einen Regimewechsel herbeizuführen, ausgesprochen und erneut eine diplomatische Lösung des eskalierenden Konflikts im Nahen Osten gefordert.

Euractiv traf die ehemalige EU-Innenkommissarin Ylva Johansson, die nun als EU-Sonderbeauftragte für Ukrainerinnen und Ukrainer nach Brüssel zurückgekehrt ist und direkt an Migrationskommissar Magnus Brunner berichtet.

On 25 June, from 14:30 to 16:15, the FISC Subcommittee will host a joint public hearing with the SEDE Committee on "The European Defence Union: Tax Matters". The hearing will focus on the legislative framework governing VAT exemptions for defence-related activities carried out under the EU’s Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP).
It will examine the 2015 Council Decision granting VAT exemptions to NATO and EU agencies for defence efforts supporting the implementation of Union activities, and assess how effectively Member States are applying these provisions.

In particular, the discussion will explore the cooperation mechanisms between the European Commission, national Ministries of Finance, and Ministries of Defence in ensuring consistent and compliant implementation of the VAT exemptions. The panel will also address the operational and administrative challenges encountered in the field. The insights gathered will contribute to the broader debate on strengthening the fiscal framework underpinning European defence initiatives, including the European Defence Industry Programme (EDIP) and upcoming measures under the ReArm Europe Plan and Readiness 2030 strategy.
