Brussels, obsessed with helping Kiev, is furious at Budapest.
For years now, Hungarian PM Viktor Orbán has been the man that Brussels’ Globalist establishment loves to hate – but now it’s getting even worse.
European ministers harshly criticized Hungary today (23), over Budapest’s plan to block the EU’s latest round of sanctions against Russia.
Luxembourg’s FM Bettel complains about Hungary over sanctions block: ‘it’s not FAIR’
‘We usually have to find a checkbook… like a market with them’
‘They block and if they get what they want, they’ll agree’https://t.co/6OwqmNHybqpic.twitter.com/jfIo0UvTfq

“The bloc’s top diplomats gathered in Brussels to discuss approving the 20th package of sanctions against Moscow. The EU had hoped to get the package approved in time for Tuesday, the fourth anniversary of Moscow’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and European Council President António Costa will head to Kyiv to mark the occasion.
But Budapest vowed in advance to block the measures unless Kyiv allows Russian oil deliveries to continue flowing to Hungary and neighboring Slovakia.”
Needless to say, Politico’s reporting still insists on Kiev’s absurd narrative that Russia attacked and destroyed its own pipeline.
