"The principal aim of cohesion policy and of the policy on the internal market is to organise policy initiatives directed towards smart, sustainable and inclusive growth, encouraging an economy with a high rate of employment that favours social and territorial cohesion.
Nevertheless, the initial conditions in which the outermost regions (ORs) find themselves present an obstacle to, and a brake on, achieving the objectives that have been set, in particular, in the Europe 2020 strategy. As the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) provides, the ORs have a right to be treated differently, which enables them to benefit from the maximum level of aid, irrespective of their level of development.
In this sense, I welcome the Commission’s plan to include a budget line for ‘Outermost regions and regions with a very low population density’ in the multiannual financial framework 2014-2020. I fully agree with the advisability of outermost regions pursuing the main objectives defined in the Europe 2020 strategy. However, I consider that we must emphasise the need to modulate the objectives in accordance with each outermost region’s own situation, taking into account their regional diversity, their structural conditions and their potential benefits."@en1
