France proposes using Google fines to reduce EU budget contributions

Original: EU should use Google fines to cut member state contributions to budget, France says

The proposal would redirect revenue from antitrust penalties against the US tech giant into the bloc's finances rather than national coffers. The idea is likely to fuel ongoing debates over how EU competition fines should be shared and spent.
