Ukraine gets US$106B loan package from EU after Hungary changes vote - National | Globalnews.ca
The measures were prepared early this year and set to be announced in February to mark the fourth anniversary of the conflict, but Hungary and Slovakia had opposed the move.

Nice to see the shackles off the EU thanks to Hungary

I am curious what this means for Ukraine’s EU and NATO membership. I’m thinking it’s positive!

No change for NATO - won’t happen any time soon. For the EU membership it’s definitely positive but it’s still years away.

Also wartime is terrible for democracy, Ukraine will need time to adjust but they will manage eventually.

Not before they stabilize and fix their corruption problem - EU and NATO would fear the repeat of the Hungary case. No one knows how cooperative Ukraine would be without Zelensky and this unknown is not some easy obstacle to ignore.

At this point Ukraine is less corrupt than some NATO members.

NATO articles state that a prospective member cant currently be engaged in ~~combat~~ territorial disputes. The war will have to end before they can join or NATO ammends its rules to allow them anyway. Edit: NATO articles dont mandate it but it is a requirement in practice. My other comment explains more.

purekillforce1 Apr 24, 2026 +1
I think it's specifically territory/boundary disputes. So as long as Russia can keep that going, they can keep them out of NATO.
1
ChangsManagement Apr 24, 2026 +3
Decided to look it up.  >"In practice, diplomats and officials have stated that having no territorial disputes is a prerequisite to joining NATO, as a member with such a dispute would be automatically considered under attack by the occupying entity. However, West Germany joined NATO in 1955 despite having territorial disputes with East Germany and other states until the early 1970s." [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enlargement_of_NATO) So, as I understand it, the requirement is not legally mandated by the treaty but arises from the fact that any member state can bring up issues with a potential member. Territorial disputes being a shared concern by many members.  It ends up being about the same as what you said though at the end of the day. Russia can keep them out as long as Europe doesnt want to go war (they really dont, except maybe Poland).

EU chances improve, but I'm doubtful they'll take them in while involved in hot conflict.  NATO... the blocker there is the US

RyanBLKST Apr 24, 2026 +38
Ukraine will not join any defense treaty pact while actively fighting Russia.
38
Stlaind Apr 24, 2026 +15
Nor realistically without either regaining or giving up claim on the territory occupied by Russia.
15
Consistent-Throat130 Apr 24, 2026 +4
That's an entirely separate matter from even being allowed into mutual defense agreements.  That piece of turf, alone, isn't going to end this conflict.  If they're fighting someone, mutual defense becomes a non-starter. 
4
Stlaind Apr 24, 2026 +10
It actually is going to prevent them from joining NATO even were the conflict to end today. NATO has only once allowed countries in when they aren't territorially complete - when Greece and Turkey joined at the same time. And neither was allowed in until it was both being accepted jointly. And it's been a something that has haunted NATO ever since with both countries acting very provocativly to the other with hopes that the other goes too far ever since.
10
Lirael_Gold Apr 24, 2026 +2
They *can't* take them in during a hot conflict, for reasons that are quite obvious. They were kinda sorta on the "okay well sort your shit out and we'll talk" list in 2015, they are absolutely not on the list at all now, not with Russia occupying a swathe of Ukrainian territory and actively waging war against them. Induction into NATO *requires* that the new member not be part of an ongoing conflict because NATO's treaties require that *all* members of NATO come to to any members defense. Ukraine cannot join NATO because it would immediately trigger Article 5 and uh, nobody else in NATO wants to throw hands with Russia right now (or ever)

Chucknastical Apr 24, 2026 +12
New PM of Hungary is weary of Ukraine's full EU membership. Opposes fast-tracking Ukraine into EU. Still playing up the nationalist rhetoric around treatment of Hungarian minority community in Ukraine. Recognizes Russia as the aggressor (huge step forward) but is lukewarm on military solutions to conflict compared to other EU nations. Looking for diplomatic solutions (between the lines, likely supports and will push for Ukraine ceding territory). Generally, he's way better for Ukraine than Orban but he's not exactly a "Pro-Ukraine" politician either.
12
Lowjack_26 Apr 24, 2026 +34
They're not pro-Ukraine, but - critically - they are no longer **anti-Ukraine.** Hungary really only mattered because they were holding up other countries trying to help; now that's no longer their game.

AgedAmbergris Apr 25, 2026 +1
Exactly. And it's the difference between a party that spouts nationalist rhetoric while selling out the country to the Kremlin and one that seems to actually mean it.

Jamaz Apr 24, 2026 +14
They are anti-Russian interference and anti-cocksucking Putin at least. "We wish you the best, but not our problem," is a million times better than "Ukraine must lose so that our PM can keep receiving bribes!"

Kahgar Apr 24, 2026 +3
As long as he’s not actively blocking the rest of the EU with vague quid pro quo or stalling support packages for his Russian overlords. The EU as a whole is 10 steps forward.

Implausibilibuddy Apr 24, 2026 +3
> New PM of Hungary is weary of Ukraine's full EU membership Sorry to correct you, but it does change the meaning significantly: it's wary. If anything, until recently it was Ukraine growing weary of Hungary's EU membership.

Beepulons Apr 24, 2026 +2
NATO membership will probably never happen, I'm afraid. Since that requires total unanimity and there is unanimity for that
2
AgedAmbergris Apr 25, 2026 +2
NATO membership isn't going to happen while there's a hot war. However, that's not going to stop European nations from looking to Ukraine, with its rapidly expanding defense industry, for defense partnerships. Funding Ukraine has always been a high ROI proposition for any European country within glide bomb range of Russia, but as Ukraine is gradually becoming an exporter specializing in exactly the technologies EU nations need to counter Russian aggression, the returns are more tangible.
2
echokalos Apr 24, 2026 +3
Why do people think Ukraine will join any of these? Im pro Ukraine, but as long as they are at war there's no way of them joining any, and there's is not even a point to them joining EU now, they get funding to keep fighting. After the war they would need to make many changes before starting long process of EU candidate. Many things can change until that point, but it's years or decades away. And for NATO membership, why do you think they would ever get it?

The Veto aught be three (3) cuntries. Sorry, typo. I am leaving it, fukkit. But seriously? Say we get the Netherlands, a land about the size of Canada's Lake Ontario, to decide all of europe is to sit and shit for eternity. What then? NL gotcher by da nutzak, zorry. je kan nix doen. Grapje. That sucks and then some. What if Luxembourg does it? A small town between there and there? Beyond silly, sorry. Edit: i miss that NL language! Such a silly yet profoundly expressivel tongue. It is like sand... it gets... everywhere.

PixelsGoBoom Apr 24, 2026 +48
GDP wise the Netherlands ranks 5th of the 27 EU members... Honestly, I feel they have very little say in the EU of which they were a founding member. But I agree that a single country blocking the will of 26 others is asinine. Hungary was pretty much a rogue EU member, preventing it from operating properly.
48
__Yakovlev__ Apr 24, 2026 +17
That's a horrible comparison because the Netherlands is actually one of the healthiest countries in the EU, a net contributor and one of the founding members. Unlike a shit hole like Bulgaria.

Fickle-Economist4724 Apr 24, 2026 +2
The problem is, each member having a veto has probably been a contributor to the fact only the stupid pricks in the UK have been the only ones to leave the union so far. If the veto were raised to three countries we’d probably see frustration and dissatisfaction creep in faster, not necessarily to say more would have definitively left, but the sentiment that lead to Brexit would be prolific throughout Europe I’m not saying the veto isn’t bullshit, but there needs to be a mechanism by which countries can oppose policy without needing backing from others, otherwise there will come a point where one country has been steamrolled so often that they find membership isn’t worth it anymore

Quazimojojojo Apr 24, 2026 +3
Bulgaria's New leader isn't nearly as Putin loving as you seem to think. And he's more pro EU and pro Nato than Pro -Putin, so he's very unlikely to be a constant thorn in their side like Orbán was. He isn't willing to risk the relationship by blocking things constantly.  He's hardly a Ukraine champion, but he's not the enemy Orbán was

Quazimojojojo Apr 24, 2026 +3
I am not the most informed by a long shot, so I'm waiting for more reporting, but my current opinion is taken from this reporting. The channel does a pretty good job of digging under the sensationalism and describing pros and cons from the perspective of the group/country/person they're describing, so I trust them as a fact-focused news source.  https://youtu.be/krlNj7vTCbg?si=3arBSlI0PWHe5p-i I also hope it's right, but time will tell. Orbán was kind of uniquely blunt in his attempts to help Russia.  And the EU is talking about reforming the unanimous voting requirement for foreign policy now that Orbán is gone. Like, quickly.

I am so relieved that Ukraine has access to more support. I wish there was a way to ensure that sanction loopholes are closed for Russia. Maybe if Vance visited Putin more it might lead to the Russians raising up and throwing Putin out.

Vance would probably be too liberal for Russians honestly. He's not homophobic, racist, or aggressive enough to capture their attention.  This is a country where a prerequisite for running it is that you have to be as evil as possible. I'm pretty sure 5/7 of their leaders in the last century have committed a genocide.

Yes, of course, that is true now. But there have been ways Russia circumvented some of the US sanctions the entire time.

Jerzylo Apr 24, 2026
The point of sanctions was never to completely block Russia but the fact that circumventing them is expensive. They have to go through middle men who all want a cut. Of course in an ideal world more pressure would be applied but Russia is suffering under the current sanctions too
0
Allaboutpeace2022 Apr 24, 2026 +1
This is all very true. Unfortunately, it does not seem that the economic pressure has led to rethinking the war and withdrawing. I am hopeful that at some point that Russia will have a moment like they did with Afghanistan and decide that they just want out. My understanding a lot of the pressure came from families with dead or injured soldiers. However, that took forever and Putin seems to have a much greater ability to silence dissent.

Optimal-Ad-7074 Apr 23, 2026 +84
this is why all the "kick Hungary out"ers were wrong:  because Hungary was always going to be there, but Orbàn was not.   coulda kicked them out and let them team up with Russia outright.  
84
maybelying Apr 24, 2026 +58
Doesn't change the underlying problem of one single corrupt government being able to undermine the entire EU from within. Kicking Hungary out would have, at least, sent a message. I get that it's not fair to the Hungarians that never supported Orban, but it is a serious issue. Change the rules so that newly admitted countries can't arbitrarily veto or something similar, and then readmit Hungary. It would certainly force countries like Bulgaria of Slovakia to rethink how they're willing to engage with everyone else.
58
LokiBG Apr 24, 2026 +29
This is just a recipe for complete EU disintegration. I agree that the rules should be changed so that a single country shouldn't unilaterally block an issue, but kicking one out to "send a message" is crazy talk. Who is sending message to who? Western European countries are fine, but the others need a lesson? Should we kick France out if they go far right? Not to mention getting countries out of the EU and NATO, especially from its former sphere of influence, is exactly what Russia wants.

I hear you, but otoh, the definition of "arbitrary" is in itself a grey call.  and long-established member nations can go bad too.   ditch every country that (mis?) uses veto and I think it would incentivize Putin, if anything.   it's hard to deploy tough love safely when there's a real strongman waiting around your margins.

Not really his actions against Ukraine, but rather his antagonism towards the EU. Voters felt that this was an important decision on whether we want to be part of the west vs the east of Europe. Considering our history, this was an easy choice for a lot of Hungarians and a blunder from Orban to make this an issue that people felt was important.

Anyone wondering, Orbán is still in power. The new government will form in early May. It's just Orbán trying to save some face, but it's really funny ngl. The main message of their propaganda was that the opposition will bankrupt the country by sending all our money to Ukraine, yet here he is approving it. So moronic
2
auchinleck917 Apr 24, 2026 +2
Most of the money will be used to place orders with military industries such as Rheinmetall, and then transferred to Ukraine. Ukraine will then accumulate debt, and a portion of the funds will likely go unaccounted for.
2
Retroranges Apr 24, 2026 +5
The hard truth the saber rattlers won‘t see. It‘s all funding for the war machine. And the military industrial complex wants to keep it that way, they have vested interest in it.

New-Detective5096 Apr 24, 2026 +2
exactly, in the end, all this money is for weapons and will go to the owners of Rheinmetall and Co.

auchinleck917 Apr 24, 2026 +1
If we focus solely on money without considering Russia or Ukraine, then taking on too much debt is pointless and will only lead to hardship after the war. And this money will enrich the defense industry before going to Ukraine. It's money that kills two birds with one stone.

I was thinking the same thing? Are they giving actual cash or they giving most of it in weapons valued at that? Also, do they require accounting for it if it is cash or do they request money for X thing and then they write them a check for it like a credit line? Not saying it’s not good just curious about the details.

Go Ukraine! Kick the Russians asses now. Keep developing those incredible long range strike drones against Russia and show the dump admin what they missed out on. All those incredible new technologies and battlefield tech to launch a combined ground and air drone assault. I mean it’s asinine the U.S. doesn’t / didn’t want that and to see how poorly we’ve performed against Iran in the Middle East. You would think the pentagon would be “chomping at the bit” to get ahold of that new c**** affordable stuff to launch it in mass and be able to handle drones defensively as well as offensively.

And right after that, they bombed part of the Hungary pipeline. It's funny, if you don't live in Hungary.

Not True. There was this demon named Orban who kept using his veto the whole time. Believe me, most people have wanted this for a very long time. My electric bill has doubled because of this war, and even if I had to pay five times as much, I would still do it to stop the Russian aggression, like most people in the Netherlands would.

Why do users like think you sound smart by saying the dumbest f****** shit... Their efforts were always blocked by Putin's other asset, Orban who recently lost the election in Hungary

So 20% of Ukraine was taken over by Russia. Then they signed 50% of right to resources to Trump and Co for who knows what and now the rest goes as collateral for this loan who everyone knows will never be paid back.

Honteux de verser autant d'argent de contribuables européens à un pays qui est le plus corrompu d'Europe depuis très longtemps. Les 3 quarts partent dans les poches des politiques, de leurs proches, des militaires. Il n'y a qu'à voir le nombre d'Ukrainiens millionnaires de partout dans le monde actuellement, à Monaco, en Suisse, Dubaï, Côte d'Azur, etc Argent volé par un des dirigeants qui haïssent leur propre peuple, sa langue, sa religion, son histoire, ses racines. Zelensky et ses sbires agissent en tant qu'administrateurs coloniaux, pillant le pays pour enrichir leurs maîtres et d'enrichir au passage. Le financement de l'Ukraine est le plus grand schéma de corruption entre dirigeants occidentaux. En résumé, argent pris aux citoyens européens, envoyé en Ukraine, et reversé partiellement aux dirigeants occidentaux. Les arrestations très temporaires de hauts fonctionnaires européens il y a quelques mois, affaire vite étouffée bien sûr, était en rapport avec ce schéma de corruption.

Unbelievable. Keep the War Machine alive and well while the young men are dying in the millions and are disabled in the many millions, and cities destroyed.

You want millions of Ukrainians to be killed and tortured in silence don’t you?

Exactly. Keep going until either all the russians are dead. Or they could simply leave Ukraine. It would all end if russia simply stops.

If you got Putin to remove all Russian troops from all of Ukraine, including Donbas, then no more young men *and women* would be dying or getting disabled and no more cities would get destroyed. __ \*edited to add: F*** Putin and f*** everyone who supports him (and also to add "*and women*").

Probably because the new government is coming in soon, so what’s the point of blocking it?

Mewhomewhy Apr 23, 2026 +12
It was blocked by Orban who is out of power. Nothing to do with a new government or it being pointless.
