Professor Spyros Blavoukos discussed the European Union’s recent maneuver to use unallocated funds from the Cohesion Fund to support Ukraine amidst ongoing conflicts. He noted this shift is not a comprehensive solution but will facilitate infrastructure projects, enhancing military mobility through the construction of bridges and roads. While Germany and other nations will benefit from these funds, the challenge lies in their effective usage. This initiative promises mutual advantages but still encounters significant delays in fund absorption, which has traditionally characterized EU funding frameworks.
