Hungary Blocks $54 Billion Aid Deal As EU Opens Door to Membership Talks
Hungary Blocks $54 Billion Aid Deal , As EU Opens Door to Membership Talks.
On Dec.
14, EU leaders convened in Brussels to authorize
$54 billion in aid for Ukraine, but it was not approved
because of Hungary, the only member state to object.
.
We still have some time, Ukraine is not
out of money in the next few weeks.
I am
fairly confident we can get a deal early
next year.
We are thinking of late January, Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte, via statement.
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor OrbĂĄn has
close ties with Russia, 'The Hill' reports.
In October, he had a controversial in-person
meeting with President Vladimir Putin.
Prior to the aid deal being blocked, the EU
officially opened accession talks with Ukraine.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky
called the development a "victory.".
This is a victory for Ukraine.
A victory
for all of Europe.
A victory that
motivates, inspires and strengthens, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, via X.
However, OrbĂĄn also objected to beginning
accession talks with Ukraine, reportedly trying for
hours to get other EU members to vote against it.

Iran has firmly rejected the European Unionâs renewed call for nuclear talks, with Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi slamming the Westâs stance as âhypocriticalâ and âlegally baseless.â Araghchi accused EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas of disregarding international law and supporting Israeli aggression in the region. Citing the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and UNSC Resolution 2231, Tehran insists it has the right to develop nuclear technology for peaceful purposes. Araghchi further declared the EU and UK irrelevant in future negotiations and warned that Western pressure will only deepen mistrust. As tensions rise and the JCPOA framework continues to unravel, is the door to diplomacy closing for good?

Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg made a surprise appearance at Budapest Pride, turning the annual LGBTQ parade into a loud political statement against Viktor OrbĂĄnâs right-wing government.
Speaking at the march, Thunberg accused the Hungarian leadership of trying to âban loveâ and labeled the event a protest against what she called âfascistâ attacks on human rights. Her presence quickly drew backlash. BalĂĄzs OrbĂĄn, political director to the Prime Minister, took to X (formerly Twitter) to mock Thunberg as a âyoung, angry personâ offering âunsolicited advice,â also referencing her âfailed Gaza activism.â
The event highlights the deepening tensions in Hungary over LGBTQ rights and government control, as critics say OrbĂĄn's policies continue to shrink civil liberties. The government insists it is defending traditional values. Thunbergâs visit further fuels the culture war now at the center of Hungaryâs politics â and one that's drawing international attention.

Former President Barack Obama has issued a stark warning about the direction of U.S. democracy, accusing Donald Trump and his allies of weakening democratic norms and echoing authoritarian tactics. Speaking at an event in Connecticut and in a separate interview, Obama compared the U.S. to nations like Hungary and Russia, where elections happen but leaders ignore the peopleâs voice. He urged judges, officials, and citizens to protect the Constitution and reject misinformation, warning that when truth is lost, dictatorship begins to take root.

In a stunning development, Russian President Vladimir Putin has announced he will speak with U.S. President Donald Trump by phone. The announcement came during a business forum on July 3, 2025, with Putin offering no details on the agenda before leaving abruptly for the call. Minutes later, Trump confirmed the 10 AM ET conversation on social media, sending shockwaves through the international community.
This high-stakes call comes at a critical moment in the Russia-Ukraine war. Russian forces have been making significant territorial gains, recently claiming full control over the strategic region of Luhansk. This major blow to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's government has been exacerbated by a slowdown in crucial military support from the United States. Moscow has intensified its aerial attacks, and the geopolitical landscape appears to be shifting, with both NATO and the U.S. seemingly easing their harsh rhetoric against Putin's actions.
Speculation is now rampant over the purpose of the Putin-Trump discussion. Key questions remain unanswered: What will they discuss? Will this call formalize a Russian victory and signal the end of the war? This move is particularly significant given Trump's previous vow to end the war in "24 hours," a promise he has struggled to fulfill since taking office. The world is watching to see if this phone call will reshape global security and determine the final fate of Ukraine.

In a stunning development, the U.S. has halted a critical weapons shipment to Ukraine that had already been staged in Poland, according to a bombshell report by the Wall Street Journal. The cache includes over two dozen PAC-3 Patriot missiles, more than two dozen Stinger air-defense systems, Hellfire missiles, and 90+ AIM air-to-air missiles designated for Ukraineâs F-16 fighter jets. U.S. administration and congressional officials reportedly confirmed the freeze, which aligns with the ongoing strategic review under the âAmerica Firstâ doctrine. The move comes amid rising Ukrainian frustration, with officials accusing Washington of endangering their defense readiness. The freeze has triggered intense geopolitical anxiety, with Kyiv urging clarity while Moscow eyes an advantage.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has announced Ukraine is now fully aligning with European Union sanctions on Iran. In a dramatic statement, Zelenskyy accused Iran of supporting external terror campaigns, engaging in brutal domestic repression, and forging a dangerous alliance with Russian President Vladimir Putin. The move marks Kyivâs most aggressive stance against Tehran, extending Ukraine's sanctions policy beyond Russia to its geopolitical backers. Zelenskyy labeled the Iranian government âone of the most brutal regimes in the worldâ and said Ukraine would contribute to targeting Iranian individuals, companies, and entities involved in both weapons production and regional destabilization. He emphasized the global importance of sanctions against both Russia and its partners. The announcement comes as Iran and Russia deepen defense ties amid the ongoing Ukraine conflict.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has issued an urgent appeal to NATO and the E5 members, highlighting the unprecedented scale of Russian drone warfare. With over 28,000 Iranian-made Shahed drones launched against Ukraine since the invasion beganâand 2,736 in June aloneâZelensky is demanding stronger air defense systems, economic retaliation, and full political isolation of Moscow.
In a powerful address, Zelensky calls on the EU to impose a $30 oil price cap, block Russiaâs shadow fleet, and make this war too expensive for Putin to sustain. Backed by soundbites and footage from the frontlines, this report dives into Ukraineâs escalating fight to defend Europeâs eastern flank.

Speaking before the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, Zelensky signed a landmark accord to establish a special tribunal to prosecute top Russian officials for crimes of aggression. Zelensky didnât hold back: âThe Hague is waiting. Hunt every war criminal â start with Putin.â The move sends a powerful signal to Moscow â that international justice is coming, and accountability will not be avoided.
Will Europe and the international community back the tribunal? And how will Russia respond to this unprecedented legal offensive?

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen reminded Donald Trump that the EU remains open for a trade dealâbut the U.S. President made it clear: China and India come first. Speaking after sealing deals with Beijing and hinting at a "very big" one with India, Trump gave no indication of engaging with Europe anytime soon. The EU, once a top U.S. economic partner, is now seemingly sidelined as Washington pivots eastward. The diplomatic slight leaves Brussels waiting in lineâbehind two of the worldâs biggest emerging powerhouses.

At NATOâs 2025 summit in The Hague, U.S. President Donald Trump hijacked the global stage â demanding 5% defense spending, mocking Iran and Israel as âkids in a schoolyard,â and claiming NATO leaders secretly praise him.
But the real shock? NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte calling Trump a âtruly extraordinary peacemakerâ â even repeating the bizarre line:
âDaddy, youâre my daddy.â
European diplomats were stunned, embarrassed, and silent â as Trump turned a strategic summit into a personal victory lap.
Critics say the event was scripted to feed Trumpâs ego, not focus on Ukraine, Iran, or NATOâs long-term survival.
So⊠is NATO collapsing under political flattery? Or is Trump just reshaping it on his own terms?

In a bizarre twist at the NATO summit, Secretary General Mark Rutte defended U.S. President Donald Trumpâs foul-mouthed outburst over the Iran-Israel ceasefire collapse â calling it âdaddy using strong language.â The expletive-laden rant came just hours after Trump announced a truce that quickly fell apart. During a press conference, Trump compared the two nations to schoolyard kids, prompting Rutte to chime in with the now-viral âdaddyâ remark. Trump doubled down with jokes and leaked private texts showing Rutte praising his leadership. What does this mean for global diplomacy â and NATO's tone under Trump?
