The European Union on Wednesday began the process of clawing back hundreds of millions of euros in funds meant to go Hungary after its ant-migrant government refused to pay a huge fine for breaking the bloc’s asylum rules.
In June, the EU’s top court ordered Hungary to pay 200 million euros ($223 million) for persistently depriving migrants of their right to apply for asylum. The court imposed an additional fine of 1 million euros for every day it failed to comply.
The European Court of Justice described Hungary’s actions as “an unprecedented and extremely serious infringement of EU law.” Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán slammed its ruling as “outrageous and unacceptable.”
Well yes, of course, just as Zelenskyy could end the people fleeing Ukraine by accepting a peace deal.
The same applies to the west not accepting Ukraine’s extradition requests of its draft dodgers so far.
Every bomb and soldier that enters the conflict, on either side, is a bad day for someone, statistically mostly civilians.
just as Zelenskyy could end the people fleeing Ukraine by accepting a peace deal.
But no bona fide peace deal has been put on the table. Putin’s demands have and that’s it.
So not the same things at all.
Zelensky is just as capable of ending this as Putin is.
Are you suggesting that if Ukraine let go of the Russian-speaking parts of Ukraine that Russia occupies, people living in those areas would flee, or that people would flee Ukraine proper in the event of peace?
Neither scenario makes sense to me, why would you expect more people would leave if the bombs stopped?
The first one. Many people wouldn’t want to live under Russian regime, also they would be afraid of retribution for resistance. Russian speaking is not the same as Russian.
