The Irish Prime Minister said that “for the sake of the greater good” we need to support EU decisions

He recalled that the EU has a system of unanimity for important decisions. 

“However, it works on the basis that everyone acts in good faith and is willing to compromise, and is also willing, for the sake of the greater good, to sometimes accept things that we do not necessarily support,” he was quoted as saying by RIA Novosti.

The head of diplomacy of the European Union, Josep Borrell, previously said that the Hungarian authorities are not opposed to increasing arms supplies to Ukraine, but Budapest does not intend to participate in this.

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban accused the EU of an ideological war against Hungary.

According to Orban, the European Union is getting closer to imperialism and less and less like a community of sovereign states.

Prior to this, the Financial Times, with reference to an EU document, wrote that the EU could sabotage the Hungarian economy if Budapest does not lift its veto on aid to Kyiv at the summit in Brussels on February 1.
