Kuleba commented on Hungary's blocking of the oil embargo

If the sixth package of EU sanctions is adopted without an oil embargo, EU unity will be destroyed because of the position of one country, Hungary, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said.

 

"We are all looking forward to the outcome of the drama in the EU related to the adoption of the sixth package of EU sanctions. If this package is adopted without the oil embargo, I believe President Putin can celebrate. Because it will be the first time when the unity of the EU will be broken because of the position of one country - Hungary. That is why we believe and hope that the EU will succeed in reaching a consensus," Kuleba told the media in Lubeck on Friday, where he attended a meeting of G7 foreign ministers.

 

The minister noted that Ukraine does not find Hungary's arguments for refusing to accept the embargo convincing.

 

"We see that it is more politics than economic arguments in Hungary's position," Kuleba added.
