EU Council Approves €90 Billion Loan for Ukraine
Brussels is celebrating the vote that grants Kyiv massive funding during a war whose end is nowhere in sight.

Brussels is celebrating the vote that grants Kyiv massive funding during a war whose end is nowhere in sight.

After months of deadlock on both the pipeline and EU funding, the sudden convergence of solutions raises as many questions as it answers.

The German government is confronting a fresh energy challenge as Moscow prepares to stop the transit of Kazakh crude oil through Russian territory.

It’s a miracle! Following the Hungarian election results, Kyiv officials claim technical conditions now allow oil transit to resume, potentially removing a major barrier to the EU’s €90 billion support package.

The outgoing PM reiterated Budapest’s position, stating “No oil = no money”.

Slovakia and neighbouring Hungary—both near-reliant on Russian crude—have expressed concern over the ongoing ‘Friendship’ pipeline disruptions.

Brussels insists it can only mediate, but affected member states say that response is no longer sufficient.

PM Robert Fico accused Kyiv of failing to allow the pipeline to resume operations despite assurances that repairs were possible.

The disruption of supply caused by the Israeli-U.S. war on Iran has caused oil prices to skyrocket.

Critics of the diehard pro-Kyiv stance highlight that the Hungarian PM is standing up for his own country’s interests, and should be backed by Brussels.
