Germany demands hundreds of billions in EU budget cuts

Original: Germany renews its hard stance on EU budget demanding hundreds of billions in cuts

Germany has renewed its hard line on the EU's long-term budget, demanding cuts worth hundreds of billions of euros. The stance sets up a clash with other member states and the European Commission, which face growing demands for spending on defence, climate policy and agriculture. Negotiations over the next multiannual financial framework are expected to be contentious.

Why now: EU budget negotiations are under way and Germany's insistence on major cuts directly affects every member state's funding.
