Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has stated that European leaders are close to agreeing on the 18th package of sanctions against Russia. During a recent address, Zelenskyy emphasized the importance of unity among EU nations in addressing the ongoing conflict with Russia.
However, Zelenskyy also pointed out that there are still significant misunderstandings with Hungary regarding the implementation of these sanctions. The Hungarian government has expressed concerns about the potential impact of the measures on its economy and relations with Russia.
Despite these challenges, Zelenskyy remains hopeful that a consensus can be reached soon. The successful adoption of the 18th sanction package would mark a significant step in the EU’s efforts to hold Russia accountable for its actions in Ukraine.
