Hungary’s Orbán says he won’t back down and allow EU’s €90bn loan to Ukraine – Europe live
AI Summary
EU leaders are meeting in Brussels to address Hungary's continued block on a €90 billion loan to Ukraine. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán stated he will not support the loan until Ukraine allows Hungary access to oil via the Druzhba pipeline, which he claims is essential for Hungary's economic survival. Orbán insists this is not a political game but an existential issue for his country. Other EU leaders, like Finland's Petteri Orpo, are criticizing Orbán, accusing him of using Ukraine as a weapon in his election campaign. The summit will also address the situation in the Middle East and its potential impact on Europe, including rising energy prices.
