Hungary has come under massive pressure due to its blockade of new EU military aid for Ukraine. Following a meeting of EU foreign ministers in Brussels, EU Foreign Policy Chief Josep Borrell spoke of an unusually „heated“ debate. The dispute had „gone very far,“ said Lithuania’s Foreign Minister Gabrielius Landsbergis. This was indirectly confirmed by Hungary. The „supporters of war“ had „shouted“ at the meeting, said Hungarian Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó. However, his government will not give in to the pressure.
