"The European Parliament is finally approving the draft amending budget that will allow EUR 670 million to be mobilised for the areas of Emilia-Romagna affected by last May’s earthquake. The EU Solidarity Fund was mobilised more swiftly on this occasion than in the past, even though there is room for further reform and improvement. Agreement on the EU budget as a whole was endangered by insensitive opposition to this amendment by some Member States. We often hear the word ‘solidarity’ bandied about at European level, but when it comes to concrete action, everybody looks to their own interests. This assistance from Brussels will help stimulate full economic recovery and a return to normal life for this hard-hit region. I hope similar assistance can soon be provided to my native Tuscany, where the damage caused by recent flooding is still very evident."@en1
