"The European Parliament is an institution that represents all European Union citizens and, as such, must play a specific role in determining the next multiannual financial framework. In particular, it is worth actually thinking of cohesion policy as an EU investment policy that helps to achieve a systematic rise in the population’s standard of living. That is why it is also better to avoid earmarking as much as 25 % of regional funds for the European Social Fund, as, however important its role in promoting employment and tackling social exclusion, it is cohesion policy that serves more effectively to achieve the goals of the Europe 2020 strategy. At the same time, special EU support programmes benefiting the poorest should be maintained. The multiannual financial framework 2014-2020 should also bring us closer to achieving full convergence of direct payments across the EU under the common agricultural policy. However, even rural development measures financed by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD) differ in nature depending on the size and state of development of rural areas in the individual Member States. For that reason, country-specific allocations of EAFRD monies should be retained. Parliament must also firmly oppose all attempts to reduce rural development funding as contrary to the objective of social and economic cohesion within the EU."@en1
