Can Europe’s budget keep up with its ambitions and how do we build a one that’s fit for the future?
In this episode of the Liberal Europe Podcast, Ricardo Silvestre welcomes Lukas Sustala,Head of the Think tank at NEOS Lab, to unpack the ELF-NEOS Lab publication “Future-proofing the European Budget.” They dive into why the EU’s current budget is no longer fit for purpose, what reforms are needed for the 2028–2034 Multiannual Financial Framework, and how smarter, future-oriented spending could reshape Europe’s role in defense, innovation, and beyond.
