The EU would improve the quality of life of city dwellers in the European Union
European Union ministers meeting in Amsterdam have endorsed a “Pact of Amsterdam” aimed at improving living conditions in towns and cities throughout the EU28.
With 70 percent of the EU's 500 million people living in urban areas, the deal signed Monday gives cities more influence in EU legislation and easier access to funds for urban projects. The Dutch government says key themes include integrating migrants into urban populations, improving air quality and tackling poverty. (MTI)
