EU in Turmoil? Hungary REJECTS EU’s Ukraine War Plan |Orban Warns ‘Ukraine Can NEVER Beat Russia’ [Video]

EU in Turmoil? Hungary REJECTS EU’s Ukraine War Plan |Orban Warns ‘Ukraine Can NEVER Beat Russia’

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has vowed to block the EU’s new budget plan, refusing to support additional funding for Ukraine’s war effort. Orbán slammed the proposal as a “budget of hopelessness,” arguing it would harm European farmers, blackmail Hungary, and waste resources on a conflict Ukraine cannot win. He warned that 20–25% of the EU’s upcoming budget would directly go to Ukraine, leaving Europe weaker and divided. As Brussels pushes for unity, Orbán insists Ukraine should remain a partner, not a full EU member. #ViktorOrban #Hungary #EU #UkraineWar #UkraineCrisis #RussiaUkraine #EUPolitics #EuropeanUnion #EUConflict #OrbánVsEU #UkraineFunding #EUrope #Brussels #WarFunding #Geopolitics #HungaryNews #OrbanSpeech #BudgetOfHopelessness #UkraineSupport #RussiaWar #EuropeanFarmers #EUBlackmail #OrbánStatement #GlobalPolitics #UkraineUpdate #HungaryEUClash #PoliticalDrama #OrbánBlocks #UkraineAid #WarEconomy Also Read Mark Zuckerberg's Meta Says It Won't Sign Europe's AI Agreement :: https://www.oneindia.com/artificial-intelligence/mark-zuckerbergs-meta-say-it-wont-sign-europes-ai-agreement-011-7805923.html?ref=DMDesc Denmark Takes Legislative Action Against AI-Generated Deepfakes To Protect Personal Identity Rights :: https://www.oneindia.com/artificial-intelligence/danish-government-amends-copyright-laws-ai-generated-deepfakes-011-7801255.html?ref=DMDesc Mexico and European Union Revamp Trade Agreement Ahead of Trump's Inauguration to Counter Tariff Threats :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/mexico-eu-revamp-trade-agreement-before-trump-inauguration-011-4045545.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.103~

Canada BOWS DOWN to Trump’s PRESSURE | Rescinds Digital Tax after Trump ‘KILLED’ Trade talks [Video]

Canada BOWS DOWN to Trump’s PRESSURE | Rescinds Digital Tax after Trump ‘KILLED’ Trade talks

Canada has officially scrapped its controversial 3% Digital Services Tax after former U.S. President Donald Trump halted all trade talks and threatened new tariffs. The tax, set to target tech giants like Amazon, Google, and Meta, faced intense U.S. backlash. Finance Minister Champagne said rescinding the tax is essential to reviving stalled negotiations. Ottawa had previously vowed not to yield, but with over 80% of Canadian exports reliant on the U.S., the rollback clears the way for renewed talks ahead of a July 21, 2025 deadline. #Canada #DigitalTax #Trump #USCanadaTrade #TradeTalks #Amazon #Meta #Google #TechTax #TariffThreat #DigitalServicesTax #Ottawa #MarkCarney #USExports #TradeFreeze #BreakingNews #EconomicPolicy #TradeDeal #CanadaUSRelations #FinanceMinister #TradeReversal #DigitalEconomy #CanadaBacktracks #TrumpTariffs #TaxRollback #BilateralTalks #GlobalTrade Also Read Canadian’s Viral Post Slams Sky-High Bengaluru Deposits: ‘I Could Buy A Thar Instead!’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/bengaluru/canadian-s-viral-post-slams-sky-high-bengaluru-deposits-i-could-buy-a-thar-instead-7786205.html?ref=DMDesc Indian Student Chants ‘Shankar Bhagwan Ki Jai’ At Graduation In Canada, Video Goes Viral :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/indian-student-chants-shankar-bhagwan-ki-jai-video-goes-viral-canada-011-7785461.html?ref=DMDesc ‘Great American Pilots Very Upset’: Trump Flips Again on Iran Strike Damage :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-debates-us-strikes-impact-on-iran-nuclear-programme-011-7783495.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.103~

Shefali Jariwala's Sudden Death at 42 Sparks Panic | Goverment Says COVID Vaccines NOT to Blame

Actor Shefali Jariwala's sudden death at the age of 42 due to cardiac arrest has reignited widespread fears about COVID-19 vaccine safety. Amid a surge of speculation, the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare has broken its silence — citing ICMR and AIIMS studies that debunk any link between COVID-19 vaccines and sudden heart attacks. In this video, we break down the government's official findings, what experts say about cardiac risks post-COVID, and why misinformation can be more dangerous than the virus itself. #ShefaliJariwala #COVID19Vaccine #HeartAttack #VaccineMyths #ICMR #AIIMS #PublicHealth #VaccineFacts #COVIDTruth #HealthMinistry #CardiacArrest #COVIDSideEffects #FactCheck #MedicalScience #IndiaNews #OneindiaNews ~HT.410~PR.274~ED.102~

Alaska is set to host former U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin in Anchorage on August 15 for their first face-to-face meeting since 2022. Locals are divided—some see the summit as historic with the potential to influence the Ukraine war’s outcome, while others fear it could make Alaska a target for attacks.

BREAKING: Zelensky Urges PM Modi to Meet at UNGA as Trump Threatens India Over Russian Oil

In a high-stakes diplomatic moment, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky spoke with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and proposed a meeting on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in September. The call comes as India faces escalating tariff threats from Donald Trump over its continued purchase of Russian oil — a key source of funding for Moscow’s war machine, according to Washington. Zelensky expressed gratitude for Modi’s warm words but urged stronger support from India, hinting at a potential turning point in New Delhi’s balancing act between East and West. With the Ukraine war dragging into its fourth year, global pressure is mounting.
