@klaralindstrom.bsky.social & #NicolinaNilsson Ukraine faces the monumental task of reintegrating up to 5 million veterans and their families – nearly 10% of its population – once Russia’s war has been brought to a full stop. @sceeus-ui.bsky.social @fbafolke.bsky.social @nordicukraine.bsky.social

Orbán will not be convinced by arguments concerning Ukraine’s readiness to join the EU, since his opposition to Ukraine is based not on substantive issues, but on domestic political concerns. Clear and confident measures will therefore be needed to prevent Orbán from blocking Ukraine’s EU accession.
