EU Foreign Ministers Set to Extend Russia Sanctions on January 27 as Hungary Lifts Opposition
The European Union is poised to extend its sanctions against Russia, with Hungary indicating it will lift its opposition to the move. EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas expressed expectations for a decision to rollover the existing sanctions, which are set to expire at the end of January. Hungary's readiness to agree to the extension comes after it had previously expressed reservations, linked to its energy security concerns. The EU has been negotiating with Ukraine on natural gas supplies to Europe, with Hungary and Slovakia included in these discussions. The extension of sanctions is part of the EU's strategy to maintain pressure on Russia over its war against Ukraine. EU foreign ministers are set to meet on January 27 to discuss the issue, following a meeting of EU ambassadors aimed at overcoming Hungary's veto threat.
