Postponing important decisions leads to an inefficient budget shaped by competing national interests. Without a responsive budgetary policy that focuses on the EU as a whole, the MFF negotiations will provide plenty of high drama and fine rhetoric, but few real benefits that might boost Europe’s recovery.
这就是问题所在。政治领导要求远见和勇气。中止重要决定导致国家利益的相互竞争，产生低效的预算。如果没有专注于作为整体的欧盟的响应预算，MFF谈判将徒有其表，而不会对欧洲复苏带来多少实质的裨益。
