Seime pasirodžius iniciatyvai keisti LRT direktoriaus atleidimo dėl nepasitikėjimo procedūrą, premjerė Inga Ruginienė tikina, kad šis siekis neturėtų būti siejamas su laisvesniu vieno ar kito vadovo keitimu. Visgi, Vyriausybės vadovė pabrėžia, kad skiriant ar atleidžiant visuomeninio transliuotojo vadovą turėtų būti užtikrinamas slaptas balsavimas.

Birštone rengiantis pėsčiųjų tilto per Nemuną statybai, kitame upės krante vasarą valstybės žemėje mįslingai išdygo kelios dešimtys kartoninių namelių be langų ir durų. Taip bandyta naujam gyvenimui prikelti sovietmečiu statytus namelius ir iš valstybės perimti ypač vertingu tapsiantį žemės sklypą. Tyrimą atlikusi statybų inspekcija paskelbė griežtą verdiktą: nameliai iškilo neteisėtai, juos surentusiems verslininkams liepta visus šiuos statinius nugriauti iki gegužės pabaigos.

EU chemicals and pesticides legislation focuses on protecting human health and the environment, while facilitating trade. It includes rules on chemical product marketing, restrictions on hazardous substances, and protocols for accidents and exports. Key achievements include the Classification, Labelling and Packaging (CLP) and REACH Regulations. The ongoing revision process aligns the legislation with the European Green Deal, particularly its sustainability and biodiversity strategies. In 2025, newly announced proposals and action plans aim to enhance safety, simplification and innovation in the regulation of chemicals and pesticides. Source : © European Union, 2025 - EP

EU policy for research and technological development (RTD) supports scientific excellence, innovation, and global competitiveness. The policy is rooted in early European legislation, it and was extended in the 1980s with a European framework programme for research. In 2014, most EU research funding came under the umbrella of Horizon 2020 (2014-2020). Its successor, Horizon Europe, is the EU’s main research and innovation funding programme for the 2021-2027 period, with a budget of EUR 93.4 billion. Source : © European Union, 2025 - EP

Sweden's national recovery and resilience plan (NRRP) is financed under the EU Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF). The NRRP's total volume is €3 445.7 million, financed entirely through EU grants. This amount reflects the downward revision of the national RRF envelope in June 2022, and includes €198 million in additional grants under the REPowerEU chapter, as well as a €66 million transfer from the Brexit Adjustment Reserve. The plan represents 0.4 % of the RRF and 0.7 % of the country's gross domestic product (GDP) in 2019 (the RRF represented 5.2 % of EU 27 GDP in 2019). Sweden is set to receive payments in five instalments. To date, the European Commission has disbursed €1 646 million, covering the first two instalments and corresponding to 47.8 % of its total grant allocation, which is below the EU average of 56.5 %. In June 2025, Sweden submitted a revised plan, to ensure full implementation before the RRF ends in August 2026. The revision is currently under Commission assessment and pending Council approval. The plan contributes 43.6 % of resources to climate-related objectives, surpassing the minimum target of 37 % set in the RRF Regulation. At 21.2 %, its allocation for digital expenditure also exceeds the threshold, which was set at 20 % of resources (excluding the REPowerEU chapter). The European Parliament has been a major supporter of establishing a common EU recovery instrument, and takes part in interinstitutional settings to cooperate, discuss and scrutinise implementation of the European Commission's work. This briefing is one in a series covering all EU Member States. Fourth edition. The previous edition was written by Eckhard Binder. The 'NGEU delivery' briefings are updated at key stages throughout the lifecycle of the plans. Source : © European Union, 2025 - EP

After 'constructive discussions' in Geneva on 23 November between representatives of the US, Ukraine, France, Germany and the UK to 'update and refine' the 28-point Russia–Ukraine peace plan proposed by US President Donald Trump, the President of the European Council, António Costa, called a special meeting of EU leaders to take stock of the latest developments. The aim was to draw on the 'new momentum for peace negotiations' by carrying out 'additional work' on major issues left unresolved. EU leaders stressed that the solution should be just and lasting, and expressed their readiness to support the process by working closely with Ukraine, the US and NATO. While reiterating their commitment to provide Ukraine with all the diplomatic, military, economic and financial support it needs, they also insisted that issues concerning the EU directly, such as sanctions and immobilised assets, required an EU decision and its full involvement.

Ireland's national recovery and resilience plan (NRRP) has the fourth smallest allocation in absolute figures under the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF). Following the European Commission's 2022 update of national allocations, the initial €989 million allocation was adjusted to €914.4 million in grants, to be disbursed in five instalments. In 2024, Ireland introduced in its plan a new REPowerEU chapter to accelerate the green transition; this brought Ireland's new total to €1 153.8 million in grants. In November 2025, Ireland submitted a new revision aimed at streamlining implementation. Ireland has so far received €679.6 million in three payments. Relative to the size of its economy, Ireland's RRF grants are not large, at around 0.3 % of the country's 2019 gross domestic product (GDP), while the total RRF amounts to 5.2 % of 2019 EU 27 GDP. Given also that spending is spread over the years up to 2026, the plan is not expected to have a significant direct impact on Ireland's key macroeconomic indicators. А more significant indirect impact is expected from the overall boost to the EU economy and the associated cross-border spillover effects (slightly over 1 % of Ireland's 2023 GDP). The plan's overall objective is to contribute to a sustainable, equitable, green and digital recovery. It complements the government's broader domestic efforts under the economic recovery plan, underpinned by the national development plan (NDP) of €165 billion, for 2021 to 2030. Although the RRF allocation amounts to less than 1 % of the total NDP investment, the plan's 19 investments and 10 reforms focus on strategic EU priorities. The Irish NRRP allocates 50.2 % of funding to climate-related measures (boosted by REPowerEU) and, excluding REPowerEU, 34.2 % to digital measures. The European Parliament participates in interinstitutional forums for cooperation and discussion on the implementation of the RRF and scrutinises the European Commission's work.
