EU chiefs assure Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy they have the tools to unblock the funds.
The EU will deliver on its promise to give Ukraine a much-needed €90 billion loan, despite Hungary attempting to derail the effort at the last minute, top officials said on Tuesday.
Speaking in Kyiv with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and European Council chief António Costa both insisted that the loan would go ahead soon.
“We will deliver on our word one way or the other,” von der Leyen told reporters. “Let me be clear. We have different options and we will use them.”
Well then you need an article that reads something along the lines of:
“Should a member state of the EU repeatedly and consistently act in the interests of states that are outside of the EU, or against the common interest of the defense of the EU, the remaining member states may invoke Article [whatever number is next}, and may hold a vote to expel the hostile member state. The vote needs a 90+ to 95+ % of the representatives to vote in the affirmative, but at that time EU membership and all security clearances are immediately revoked.”
It’s also a toothless defense pact if one hostile actor can undermine the defense of every other country in, and surrounding, the EU.
