巴黎，9月29日：法国欧洲事务部长本杰明·哈达德周二表示，欧盟应将欧盟对谷歌处以的数十亿欧元罚款所得，用于减少成员国对欧盟预算的出资。
PARIS, Sept 29 : The European Union should use the proceeds of the billions of euros in fines imposed on Google to reduce the contribution of member states to the EU budget, France's Europe Minister Benjamin Haddad said on Tuesday.
- “这是欧盟的一项新收入来源——金额达46亿欧元——应该会自动降低所有成员国的预算缴款。”哈达德在接受Franceinfo电视台采访时说。
• "This is a new revenue source for the European Union — worth €4.6 billion — that should automatically lower the contributions of all member states," Haddad said in an interview with Franceinfo TV station.
- 欧盟各国首都对预算规模及支出重点存在分歧。
• EU capitals are divided over both the size of the budget and spending priorities.
- 谷歌7月因违反旨在遏制大型科技企业影响力的欧盟规则，被欧盟处以总计8.9亿欧元（10.1亿美元）罚款。
• Google was fined a total of €890 million ($1.01 billion) in July for flouting European Union rules aimed at reining in the power of Big Tech.
- 这些最新罚款使欧盟近二十年来因反竞争行为对谷歌处以的罚款总额增至103.8亿欧元。
• The recent fines pushed the total penalties imposed on Google by the EU for anti-competitive practices to €10.38 billion over nearly two decades.
- 欧盟各国政府正在就2028年至2034年的预算进行谈判，其中包括将在10月、11月和12月举行的峰会，以争取在年底前达成协议。
• EU governments are negotiating the budget for the 2028 to 2034 period, including at summits in October, November and December in an effort to secure a deal before year-end.
- 欧盟委员会提议，预算规模应为2万亿欧元，即欧盟国民总收入的1.26%；其中约1680亿欧元（相当于国民总收入的0.11%）将用于偿还欧盟为疫情后复苏基金借款所产生的债务。（1美元=0.8806欧元）
• The European Commission has proposed the budget should amount to €2 trillion or 1.26 per cent of EU Gross National Income, of which some €168 billion, or 0.11 per cent of GNI, is to service the EU's borrowing for the post-pandemic recovery fund. ($1 = 0.8806 euros)
