EU Foreign Ministers unanimously supported the extension of sanctions against Russia, Orda reports, citing EU Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Kaja Kallas on Twitter.
Europe delivers: EU Foreign Ministers just agreed to extend again the sanctions on Russia.
This will continue to deprive Moscow of revenues to finance its war.
Russia needs to pay for the damage they are causing.— Kaja Kallas (@kajakallas) January 27, 2025
Meanwhile, Hungary backed down on its intentions to veto the extension.
Last week, Prime Minister Viktor Orban announced such intentions, demanding that the EU secure Kyiv's resumption of Russian gas transit to Europe.
Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto wrote on his Facebook page that Budapest "received energy security guarantees."
He added that the EU would seek guarantees from Ukraine to maintain oil supplies.
