The EU heads of state and government want to call on the European Investment Bank (EIB) to spend more on security and defense. The European defense industry must have better access to private and public funding, „including through the European Investment Bank, inter alia by reconsidering the definition of dual-use goods and the lending policy to the defense industry,“ according to a draft of the conclusions for next week’s EU summit in Brussels, available to Table.Briefings. However, there is no call for dedicated funding for weapons and ammunition.
