lpv:translated text	"According to Eurostat 21.4% of young people in Europe are unemployed, 28% of those are long-term unemployed. In the last ten years the number has been in the region between 15 and 20%. The Commission estimates that 21% costs society today EUR 2 billion per week or 1% of the EU’s economic output. These are mere figures and do not portray the real tragedy among young people who face serious difficulties finding any job. The informal Council of 30 January has agreed to re-allocate funds from the structural and cohesion funds to fight high youth unemployment, especially focusing on the most affected countries such as Spain with 46% and Ireland and Portugal facing rates around 29%. The Member States together with the Commission must rapidly work out a concrete re-allocation plan, to be presented to and discussed with all actors involved. It is crucial to create new flexible job schemes, additional quality apprenticeship and traineeship possibilities both for young people who enter the job market, but also for those who need the opportunity to re-enter. Europe needs its young people more than ever and today’s crisis gives the opportunity for the EU to show flexibility in budgeting and finally seriously target this long-term problem."@en1
