Holland provides an extension to the armies – Liberation

It is decided. Following an exceptional Defence Council for deciding to provide additional budgetary resources to the armed François Hollande announced that there would be an extension to allow the defense to complete his income while continuing its indoor and outdoor missions. The amount: 3.8 billion additional euros by 2019 (Defense asked 5 billion). It will cohosh in a programming updated bill, presented by the Cabinet on May 20

So, 18,500 jobs will be saved on the 34,000 cuts planned by the military program law. What “sustain” 7000 military mobilized in France following the attacks in January. An antiterrorist operation renamed “Sentinel”. The question is on what these budgets 3.8 billion will be found as the government has ruled out raising taxes by 2017.

Sliced ​​also the issue of “project companies” . One solution proposed by the Minister of Defence, Jean-Yves Le Drian, to fill a shortfall of 2.3 billion euros in its budget due to the delay of wireless 700 MHz auctions. These new structures would have allowed the army to sell military equipment (multimission frigates and Airbus A400M) and then take the rental immediately and retrieve the cash it needs by next August. In January, Holland had voted for. He even wished that this device is “implemented this year” . “[These companies] will acquire equipment in more flexible terms, more fluid, resulting in a quick setup means whose forces need” , he explained on 14 January the aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle when his vows to the armies.

Three and a half months later, astern. Faced with opposition from Bercy, the head of state was content Wednesday to reassure Le Drian on its cash needs: “In 2015, the Department of Defense appropriations 31.4 billion euros and it will be safe havens of budgetary appropriations, without any use of external resources “, he explained. Either: we drop the solution Le Drian. “This means that the Defense Ministry is sure to be able to have these credits in the year 2015″ , added Holland. The solution chosen is that of the Ministry of Finance, preferring to credit the Armed rather than engaging in a complex mechanism and, according to his tenant, Michel Sapin, presented “some disadvantages” .
