Frugal states led by Germany push to cap EU budget ahead of summit

A coalition of six fiscally conservative EU member states, led by Germany, is mobilizing to oppose increases in the European Union's multiannual budget ahead of the October 15-16 European Council meeting. They will confront the 'Friends of Cohesion' group, which advocates for maintaining or increasing spending, setting the stage for a contentious negotiation over the bloc's financial framework.
