Josep Borrell hopes another EUR 500 mln military support for Ukraine to be approved

23 May , 2023  

High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Josep Borrell hopes that a decision will be found this week to unlock another tranche of EUR 500 million in military support for Ukraine.
He said this at a press conference after a meeting of the Council at the level of defense ministers of the member countries of the European Union in Brussels on Tuesday.
Borrell said this issue is still under discussion. He said any hurdles to approve this amount will be overcome this week and it was the subject of discussion at the technical meeting of the committee.
As it is known, the allocation of this amount is blocked by Hungary, arguing that one of its banks is on the Ukrainian “black list.”
