"The Erasmus programme is one of the most successful programmes at European level but is currently at risk for lack of EU funding. At a time of serious financial difficulties for young people, it is fundamental to continue to support the mobility of thousands of students between various countries. During negotiations on the EU budget for 2012, the Council decided to reduce payment authorisations by EUR 3 billion, having also undertaken to release the budgetary funds if it became necessary. During the current year the Council and the European Commission approved many projects in different areas such as the National Strategic Reference Framework, the common agricultural policy, the Fisheries Fund, Research and Innovation (Seventh Framework Programme) or Erasmus programme projects. In order for the EU to meet all the financial requirements in the most varied areas of economic and social activity, the EU budget must be increased by approximately EUR 8.3 billion and the European Commission has already presented a proposal to that effect. I think it is fundamental to respect the commitments entered into with the beneficiaries and to finance the projects which were approved by the European institutions. We cannot put the Erasmus programme at risk – a programme it took years to consolidate and which is fundamental for the future of new generations."@en1
