 EU leaders agreed on February 1 to allocate macrofinancial assistance to Ukraine totaling €50 billion, Charles Michel, president of the European Council, said this. He noted that all 27 EU member states adopted the decision. This locks instead fast, long-term, predictable funding for Ukraine. The EU is taking leadership and responsibility in support for Ukraine. We know what is at stake, Michel said. Other reports indicate that EU leaders are considering incorporating the idea of annual reviews of the planned €50 billion aid package for Ukraine into the EU summit resolution to secure Hungary's support. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán proposed a compromise deal to unblock the €50 billion in EU funding for Ukraine. He said the compromise involves his agreement to allocate funds to Ukraine under the following condition, a guarantee that the decision to continue sending money will be reviewed every year. In practice, this will essentially give Hungary another opportunity to hold up aid each year.
