CNN Prima News | Orban backs down, EU to help Ukraine

To the surprise of many experts, Orbán decided not to prolong and complicate the negotiations at the EU summit, which in record time reached a unanimous decision on another aid package for Ukraine. Our senior research fellow Vít Havelka spoke about the situation on air.

"It was very quick. I think that Viktor Orbán was put in an impossible situation and the pressure on him was so great that I could not imagine that he would be able to continue in his position."
