Long-reads

Here are eight reasons why the new Media Law should be considered one of the most important parliamentary achievements of the year.

"European Pravda" has found out on what conditions the EU will transfer Kyiv €18 billion...

The most complicated issue that the Germans have to overcome is that the murders, rapes, and other war crimes in Ukraine support the vast majority of Russians.

The ECtHR decision should legally establish that Donbas has been occupied by the Russian Federation since 2014. This is beyond important from the point of view of the inevitable financial punishment of Russia.

Ukrainians believe more in joining NATO than the EU! Eurosceptic regions tend to equalise European integration and reforms.

The defeat of Russia in Ukraine does not mean the liquidation of the army in Transnistria... When Kyiv acts on it, it is important not to collapse the economy of Moldova...

"Ukraine is alive and kicking. We defeated Russia in the battle for minds of the world. We have no fear. Nor should anyone in the world have it."

Kyiv progresses in implementing all the European Commission recommendations. But none of them has been fully implemented yet.

Hungary has faced a financial crisis capable of collapsing its economy... Europe has never been as negative towards the Hungarian government as it is now...

There is more than a ball in the EU court now. The fact that the reform of the selection of CCU judges is a "candidate requirement" determined for Ukraine gives the European Union leverage.

It has been a sudden flare-up of "letter terrorism" in Spain. In two days, high-ranking officials and foreign diplomatic institutions received several dangerous parcels with a flammable substance. They all share one trait - they are involved in helping Ukraine in the fight against the Russian aggressor.

No surprise that after showing tangible progress in the summer, Ukraine found itself bogged down in agreeing on detailed steps with Brussels and in internal discussions.

It makes more sense for Putin not to launch nuclear weapons but only to use it as a threat... The West sees the decline of the direct nuclear threat...

Kyiv has been desperately fighting to start formal EU accession negotiations in previous months. The Ukrainian government got outraged by the fact that the European Commission had postponed by a year the assessment of Ukraine's progress in the implementation of the so-called "Seven requirements" defined by the European Commission. Without their fulfillment, it is impossible to start accession negotiations.

Ukraine plans to merge some ministries and establish the Ministry of European Integration, which is responsible for joining the EU and possibly NATO. The uniqueness of the decision is that the Ministry of Culture and Information Policy is preparing to "absorb" the Ministry of European Integration.

With the full-scale war, the Hungarian government led by Viktor Orbán not only did not cut off ties with his Russian friend Vladimir Putin but, on the contrary, is getting even closer to him.

One of the most common associations with the European Union is Eurobureaucracy and slow decision-making procedures. However, the rapid and rather decisive - despite the pressure of skeptical governments - the Union's response to the Russian Federation's aggressive war against Ukraine came as a surprise to many.

The G20 Heads of State and Government Summit will kick off in Indonesia in exactly one week. "European Pravda" learned the draft decisions of this meeting and discovered that it carries a serious, albeit hidden, danger for Ukraine and the world. The Western partners do not realise they are handing the trump cards to the Russian aggressor.
