#HorizonEurope must remain focused on excellent research, including collaborative research. It should not be repurposed as a tool to deliver industrial or short-term political objectives.

To continue to drive excellent research, the ERC must be safeguarded from political steering. While the Commission’s proposal to expand the ERC is welcome, proposed changes like the reduction of the President’s term are concerning.

Framework Programme #FP10 should as be open as possible & as closed as necessary.

We need to define:
- association criteria more clearly, reflecting geopolitical context & values
- appropriate mechanisms to respond
- min. 🇪🇺 standards for research security & risk assessment
