EU Legislative Proposals: Discussion
2:00 am
Ms Niamh Ní Bhriain:
If Poland gets the money, how does Poland spend it? This comes to the 65%-35% piece which is that if Poland gets €46 billion and goes to spend it, 65% has to be in the European market or in one of the security and defence partnership countries, which could include the seven that I listed. We do not know because the national plans are not in yet. They will be in November, but I imagine it would again go to the biggest European arms countries, namely, France, Germany and Italy.
