The Foreign Minister of Ukraine commented on the “European drama” regarding the introduction of a ban on Russian oil.
Minister for Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmytro Kuleba believes that Hungary's blockade of the European Union's decision to impose an oil embargo against Russia could be the first case of destroying the unity of the EU. He said this after a meeting of the G7 foreign ministers.
We are all waiting for the end of the European drama with the introduction of the sixth sanctions package. For the first time, European unity will be shattered through one country, Hungary, “Kuleba said.”/p>
“I think, in theory, if Hungary does not support the decision, it will deal a big blow to the EU itself,” he said. Earlier it was reported that some European Union countries are ready to postpone the oil embargo on Russia indefinitely due to the principled position of Hungary, which refuses to support sanctions against the aggressor state. The EU believes that this will speed up the introduction of the sixth package of sanctions, at least to a limited extent. Will a clause on a full embargo on Russian gas be approved in the next Western sanctions package? Why has Europe become dependent on Russia? About this and other things in the article by Mikhail Gonchar “Europe in Russia's energy trap: how to overcome dependence?” .
