The EU has given preliminary approval for a €90 billion ($105.4 billion) loan to Ukraine, ending months of blockage by Hungary . The funding — two thirds earmarked for military needs — is meant to support Kyiv as it faces Russia’s full-scale invasion . Final approval is expected Thursday after Ukraine repaired the Druzhba oil pipeline, restoring Russian oil flows to Hungary and Slovakia. EU states also cleared a delayed 20th sanctions package to curb Russia’s war financing.
