This move is aimed at addressing Hungary&#8217;s opposition to providing aid to Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>The European Commission had previously excluded Hungary from the EU&#8217;s economic stimulus plan due to concerns about corruption and the perceived erosion of democratic checks and balances, particularly under the leadership of Prime Minister Viktor Orban.<\/p>\n<p>To counter Budapest&#8217;s veto on aid to Ukraine, the EU has taken this step to release the funds.<\/p>\n<p>Hungary&#8217;s objections had led to a deadlock on EU decisions scheduled for next month, including a proposed \u20ac50 billion economic aid package for Ukraine until 2027 and the initiation of accession talks with Kyiv.<\/p>\n<p>Charles Michel, the president of the European Council, emphasised earlier that assisting Ukraine in joining the European Union is viewed as a &#8220;question of moral duty.&#8221; This move reflects ongoing diplomatic efforts to address disagreements within the EU and support Ukraine&#8217;s economic and political aspirations.<\/p>\n<p><b>THIS IS A LIVE BLOG.
