💬 Unfortunately, I cannot say that the European Peace Facility has been unblocked, as it is being vetoed by the Hungarian side.

I would like to understand the reasons why Hungary does not want to help 🇺🇦 and thus favours the aggressor in this conflict.

Russia invaded Ukraine by land, air and sea on February 24, 2022, starting the largest armed conflict in Europe since World War II.

Tuesday marks the 1,000th day of Russia's war on Ukraine.

Poland, France and Germany work together as part of a trilateral cooperation platform known as the Weimar Triangle.
