Hungary Vetoes EU Statement on Nicolás Maduro's Re-election
Jul 31, 2024, 10:26 AM
Hungary has vetoed a European Union statement that was intended to express concern over the recent presidential elections in Venezuela, which saw the re-election of Nicolás Maduro. The EU statement aimed to highlight alleged shortcomings and irregularities during the voting process. This move by Hungary has prevented the EU from issuing a unified response to the situation in Venezuela. Viktor Orbán, Hungary's Prime Minister, has previously blocked about 50% of all EU votes. Sources suggest that Orbán's decision is linked to his ongoing disputes with Brussels rather than any ideological support for Venezuela's socialist government. In response, the head of European diplomacy, Josep Borelj, issued a separate statement.
