Shared Priorities in the EU Multiannual Financial Framework Negotiations

  • For the governments of Estonia and Latvia to reaffirm their commitment to cooperate in the EU Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF) negotiation process to secure EU financing for common key priorities. These include increased funding for defence readiness, cross-border connectivity, earmarked EU funding aimed at addressing the challenges of economic and social convergence, resilience, and security faced by our countries and regions bordering Russia and Belarus and securing convergence of payment levels in Common Agricultural Policy (CAP).
  • For the governments of Estonia and Latvia to reaffirm commitment to strengthen our individual and collective defence and fill critical gaps in European defence as a matter of urgency. In this light, ongoing bilateral and regional efforts aimed at strengthening regional security, cybersecurity and crisis preparedness will continue. This includes coordinated efforts to secure EU support and funding, as well as activating working groups established under existing regional memorandums of understanding. 
  • For the governments of Estonia and Latvia to continue their steadfast support for Ukraine in its fight against Russia’s illegal and unjustified aggression.
  • For the Ministries of Interior to renew the Bilateral Agreement between the Republic of Estonia and the Republic of Latvia on Cross-Border Cooperation in Combating Crime by the end of 2025. 
  • For the Ministries of Interior to prepare a joint action plan to counter cross-border drug trafficking and organised crime by 15 October 2025.
