Before the meeting of the EU foreign ministers in Brussels, the head of the German Foreign Ministry said that the Russian Federation with the Putin regime remains the biggest threat to the security of European states.
According to Bärbock, therefore, the main task of the EU remains to continue to support Ukraine, because the Kremlin dictator is attacking the European peace order, writes NBN with reference to Ukrinform.
Talking about the “peace initiatives” of the head of the Hungarian government, Victor Orban, the diplomat recalled that proposals to end the war are on the table every day, but the Russian leader continues to attack Ukrainian cities instead of withdrawing his troops from the territory of a foreign state.
Also, the head of the German Foreign Ministry spoke about a possible blockade by the representative of Budapest providing assistance to Kyiv from the EU. The minister assured that with this development of events, the organization will find an opportunity to continue supporting the Ukrainians.
Berbock recalled that Berlin proposes that the European Union abandon the practice of unanimous decision-making and introduce the practice of approving decisions on the organization’s foreign and internal security policy by a majority of members . The corresponding initiative of the German side will be discussed in the coming weeks.
Recall that after Orban’s visits to Moscow and Beijing, members of the European Parliament demanded that Hungary be deprived of the right to vote in the EU Council.
