Upbeat Blair to hold budget talks with EU newcomers

British Prime Minister Tony Blair will hold budget talks with EU newcomer states in visits to Estonia and Hungary later this week, his spokesman has announced, citing "gathering momentum" for a deal.

Blair, who currently holds the rotating presidency of the European Union, will visit Tallinn and Budapest on Thursday and Friday as he battles to strike a deal on the bloc's 2007-2013 budget at a mid-December summit.

The 10 countries which joined the EU last year are particularly pushing for a deal, since it will release much-needed funds to help their relatively poor countries catch up with western Europe.

"We believe we are at a significant time," said the official spokesman, confirming Blair's travel plans as he arrived in Barcelona to co-host a summit of the 25-nation EU's leaders with their Mediterranean-rim counterparts.

In Tallinn, Blair will meet with the three Baltic EU newcomers: Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, while in Budapest he will hold talks with the Visegrad countries: the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia.

"We are going to go for a deal," said the spokesman, adding: "What is important is that there is a gathering momentum in terms of everybody having to step up to the plate."

The budget standoff is blocked in particular by Britain's refusal to give ground on its long-cherished EU rebate, as well as French resistance to reform of the bloc's generous farm aid system, of which France is the main recipient.

EU foreign ministers are to hold a special conclave on December 7 in a bid to break the budget deadlock ahead of a December 15-16 summit in Brussels.

The British EU presidency is due to make new budget proposals for the conclave.

The British government spokesman added that Blair is also due to travel to Kiev on Thursday for an EU-Ukraine summit.
