Hungary blocks next tranche of military support for Ukraine under EU's peace facility

Hungary did not approve the disbursement of the next tranche of military support for Ukraine provided under the EU's European Peace Facility (EPF), the Hungarian government spokesman's office said in an emailed reply to Reuters on Tuesday.

"Hungary does not agree with the fact that the European Union, along with other existing tools, uses the European Peace Facility solely with regard to Ukraine as this does not allow sufficient funds to be channeled to promote the EU's interests in other areas," the government spokesman's office said.
