EUROPEAN Union head Ursula von der Leyen today said she was “confident” of getting Hungary to drop its veto on a €50 billion (RM256.3 billion) aid package for Ukraine at a crunch summit in two weeks.
Hungary’s right-wing Prime Minister Viktor Orban – Russia’s closest EU ally – refused in December to sign off on the assistance to prop up Kyiv’s state spending over the next four years.
