The European Union does not have a "Plan B" for Orban's veto of the 90 billion euro loan for Ukraine, their only hopes are that the elections in Hungary will lead to a change in the country's government. This was said in the program "From the Day" on BNT by former Deputy Foreign Minister Milen Keremedchiev, quoted by novini.bg.
He noted that the war of the US and Israel against Iran is already affecting the war in Ukraine.
Russia announced a freeze on the trilateral negotiations. We also see the entire concentration of the world community on the war in the Middle East. On the other hand, raising fuel prices is pouring money into Russia's military machine - $10 billion a month in additional revenue, Keremedchiev said.
Also, in the strikes against Iran, the US is using a huge number of high-tech missiles, which until now were provided to Ukraine through the European Union. It is very likely that we will also see a reduction in the provision of military assistance to Ukraine. At the moment, this war is having a negative impact on Ukraine's ability to defend itself, the former deputy foreign minister pointed out.
It is interesting that Russia and China have abandoned Iran in this situation, as they previously abandoned Venezuela. The main loser in this conflict, apart from Iran, which will still suffer economic damage, is China. If they take over Kharkov Island, this will mean that the US will lay hands on China's two main oil suppliers - Venezuela and Iran. China's nervousness could be a factor in starting negotiations, Milen Keremedchiev also commented.
