    Le Fonds européen de défense doté de 7 milliards d'euros

    Le Fonds européen de défense sera doté de 7 milliards d'euros pour la période 2021-2027, une somme nettement inférieure aux 13 milliards appelés par la France. Le Fonds vise à «favoriser la compétitivité, l'efficacité et la capacité d'innovation de la base industrielle et technologique de défense européenne, en soutenant des actions de collaboration et de coopération transfrontalière dans toute l'Union, à chaque étape du cycle industriel des produits et technologies de défense», indique le Conseil Européen. Le budget dévolu à l'espace sera quant à lui de 13,3 milliards d'euros (constants 2018) pour la période 2021-2027. Le projet initial était de 16 milliards d'euros courants, soit environ 14 milliards d'euros constants 2018. Ensemble de la presse du 22 juillet
