EU recovery money reaches Poland as Tusk delivers on key promise: Warsaw received the first tranche from the Next Generation EU fund after the European ...
euractiv.com/section/politics/news/eu-recovery-money-reaches-poland-as-tusk-delivers-on-key-promise/
Quick Glance: Poland's Strategy for EU Recovery Grants and Law Change to Boost Investments
- With a little over two years left to spend European Union recovery money, Poland is firmly focusing on maximizing the smaller grants portion of the program, while viewing cheap loans as a secondary component.
- Poland is expected to receive 6 billion euros from recovery funds on Monday, and Prime Minister Donald Tusk's government is revising the national reconstruction plan to list projects and reforms aimed for approval by Brussels this month.
- To expedite investments, the Polish government is also working on amending existing laws to avoid converting all incoming euro-denominated funds into Polish zlotys, with a decision expected either this month or next.
- However, some economists caution that investor optimism regarding the inflow of funds may be excessive, especially with the upcoming Polish presidential elections next year potentially impacting the implementation of necessary reforms to ensure the continuous flow of funds.

Quick Glance: Von der Leyen’s Re-election Chances Impacted by €17k-a-Month Job for Ally
- Ursula von der Leyen’s bid for a second term as president of the European Commission has been marred by accusations of favoritism in the selection of a fellow party member for a lucrative new job.

- The commission defended the appointment, showing confidence in the procedure's compliance. The intervention of senior EU politicians marks the first sign of trouble for von der Leyen's re-election campaign.
- Member states are expected to back her post-election, but her reappointment will likely require approval from socialist and liberal groups for a majority vote.
