Question 25295 — foreign policy

Summary

Mr. Jean François Mbaye questions the Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs on the use of the Solidarity Fund for Development (FSD) within the framework of the finance law for 2020. Created in 2005, the FSD makes it possible to channel innovative financing such as the solidarity tax on plane tickets or the financial transactions tax (TTF). As part of the 2020 budget, this fund will be credited with 738 million euros. There The creation of the FSD was initially intended to finance multilateral health aid, then it was gradually extended to issues linked to climate and the environment. Thus, the recent announcements by the executive regarding, on the one hand, the increase in the French contribution to the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, and on the other hand the doubling of investments in the Green Fund will be materialized by the through the FSD. However, the provisions of the finance bill for 2020 do not propose an increase in the FSD, despite the various amendments having been tabled for this purpose. Therefore, he would like to question him on how the Government intends to achieve the above-mentioned increases despite this lack of increase.
