EU country leaders meet in Brussels. They talk about Ukraine. Ukraine needs money for defense. The EU wants to give 50 billion Euros to Ukraine. But Viktor Orbán says no to this. He is the leader of Hungary. He blocks the help for the country.
Friedrich Merz strongly criticizes Viktor Orbán. Merz is an important politician from Germany. He threatens Hungary with hard results. If Hungary stops the help, there will be consequences. Other countries are also angry about Viktor Orbán. Hungary often uses its veto in votes.
The state controls many media in Hungary. The news there often praises Viktor Orbán a lot. Critics say: This is propaganda. The media spread only the view of the government. This makes working together in Europe harder. The EU leaders now look for a solution without Hungary.
