EU vows to give Ukraine aid despite Hungary veto | BBC News
EU leaders have said that Ukraine will not be left without support, after Hungary blocked €50bn (£43bn) in aid.
Ukraine is critically dependent on EU and US funding as it continues to fight occupying Russian forces.
A $61bn defence aid package from the US has also been delayed because of major disagreements between Democrat and Republican lawmakers.
Long delays in financial aid for the country would cause big problems for Ukraine’s budget, economists have warned – while Russian President Vladimir Putin congratulated Hungary for blocking the EU aid package.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

if that happens the EU credibility will be further lost, but not only, it will mean that the EU citizens should try their best to go around the laws and avoid paying VAT or TAX like these leaders are trying to do and try to avoid the EU rules.
These leaders had been appointed to safeguard the EU laws not to try to find loopholes of how to go about these laws. It is their duty, to amend and law whit loopholes instead of using those loopholes for their personal gains because seeing all this effort one cannot but assume there is personal gain involved

As long as majority of the Russians in Russia continue to love, adore, and worship Putin, then he will again win the election because, usually, it is the majority who decides the leadership of a country.

I love how a war started by the United States and has crippled Europe is still being financed by the EU.
Geemany has its infrastructure blown up by Americans (Nordsteam), is on the road to de-industrialization, is paying more for energy than ever before and who's economy is in a downward slide, but they still support this nonsense.
This same situation is happening añl.over Europe.
Who benefits from all this mess???
Well of course its the United States.
The people who have been fighting against Russian oi imports into Europe for almost a decade.
And Why??
So they could import expensive LNG at four times the price of Russian natural gas.
Are these europan leaders so blind that they are literally hollowing out their own econmies to bendit only one nation??
Are European people so stupid that they cant see this??
Europe, you have an ennemy, bit its not Russia. Its the country that is completely controlling this situation.
Its the country that happily provided expensive gas to you after they did everything to stop cheap Russian gas.
Its the country that meddles in your democracies and taps the phones of your elected leaders.
Its the country tbat pushes huge amounts of propaganda.
Its not Russia tjat is destroying Europe, its the United States.

Vladimir Putin, president of the great, magnanimous and victorious Russian nation over would-be global dominators, will once again be a candidate for election. NATO, EU and UK breathe a sigh of relief, as they already know him and if another candidate were to be elected they could be destroyed. Only the media believe they can place an infiltrated Englishman or even one of their journalists as president in Russia.

Traitor zelensky should ask the EU for diplomatic help in getting to the negotiation and saving what it could still be saved from what is left of nazi Ukraine. Hungary is a great, proud country with leaders who still have a backbone. Currently, Ukraine’s options are trending to zero. Just like traitor zelensky’s status: from “hero” to ZERO. The easiest and most patriotic option is that the Ukrainian people should get rid of this dictator. He must be put on trial for high treason for destroying the country and sending to death hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians. This traitor transformed the country into a graveyard. He could transform Ukraine into a great and prosperous country if he had been patriotic enough to choose neutrality. Instead, the traitor chose the money from his masters. His greed for money destroyed Ukraine and killed hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians.
