The European Union (EU) foreign ministers have not reached an agreement on providing a new tranche of aid to Ukraine from the European Peace Fund. However, they have acknowledged the necessity to continue support. Hungary's opposition to the allocation of aid to Ukraine has created tensions within the EU. The EU is seeking to raise €15 billion for Ukraine from Russia's frozen assets, with the European Commission planning to utilize the proceeds of Russian assets frozen in the EU to help Ukraine. There are discussions about emergency funding for Ukraine to bypass the general budget due to Hungary's position. Additionally, Hungary has indicated a willingness to withdraw its veto on EU funding for Ukraine in exchange for billions of euros that the EU is withholding because of Hungary's democracy problems. The aid to Ukraine is a major topic at the upcoming EU leaders' meeting in Brussels, where discussions will also focus on long-term funding for Kyiv and Ukraine's potential accession to the EU.
