The European Union has greenlit a major 90-billion-euro loan package to support Ukraine in addressing its economic and military requirements over the next two years. The decision came after Hungary lifted its veto, which had been a significant barrier.
In addition to financial support, the EU announced a new series of sanctions against Russia, marking another chapter in the complex geopolitical tensions. These measures were prepared earlier this year but had faced opposition from Hungary and Slovakia.
The financial aid is crucial for Ukraine, whose economy has been severely impacted by the ongoing conflict. This move by the EU aims to strengthen Ukraine's resilience against Russian forces, providing timely support for immediate budgetary needs.
