MEPs approved EU aid amounting to €280 million from the EU Solidarity Fund for Austria, Poland, Czechia, Slovakia, Moldova, and Bosnia and Herzegovina to assist in recovery from severe floods in 2024. The funds will be used for infrastructure repair, temporary accommodation, protecting cultural sites, and clean-up. The EU should prioritize addressing climate change. This aid demonstrates the EU's commitment to providing swift and effective support during natural disasters and calls for increased funding for the Solidarity Fund.
