A large number of EU resolutions on Ukraine are being blocked by Hungary, said Lithuanian Foreign Minister Gabrielius Landsbergis.

Hungary is digging in and refusing to wave through billions in military aid for Ukraine, prompting growing dismay among other EU countries.

"I have to calm myself [when] I talk about this issue, because it’s getting really ridiculous now,” a senior EU diplomat said of the standoff with Hungary, speaking before Monday’s meeting of EU foreign ministers. “What’s happening is outrageous.”

Diplomats had hoped to have a new €6.6 billion package ready ahead of this week’s meetings of foreign and defense ministers in Brussels. The deal included €860 million for arms procurement, reported by POLITICO last week.

      I’ve reported all disinformation spreading comments with “Disinformation”, and one insulting one with “Insult”, so I’m not sure what you’re talking about flagging things.

      Considering that the news submissions were the only thing that was at least half reliable on the fediverse, I guess it now lost its entire point by now. Tankies here, Nazis on Reddit. No thanks.

        You can call it whatever you like. It is not against the community rules to say something untrue in a comment and we mods do not have the time to vet every flagged comment for veracity.
