Parliament easily backs measure aimed at restraining Hungary’s EU presidency

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 21:00:32 GMT

BRUSSELS — The European Parliament on Thursday approved a resolution questioning Hungary’s ability to helm a key EU policymaking apparatus in the second half of 2024. The nonbinding measure easily cleared Parliament by a 442-144 vote, earning support from five political groups spanning from the far left to the center right — a sign of the discontent with Hungary’s track record on democratic backsliding in recent years. The overwhelming vote is the culmination of days of conversation about whether Brussels may take steps to hem in Hungary’s upcoming turn overseeing the Council of the EU, a power center in Brussels where government ministers hash out EU policy. Countries take six-month turns helming the Council’s rotating presidency, giving them the authority to chair meetings, set agendas and negotiate policy texts. The Parliament resolution passed Thursday only offers vague proposals for restraining Hungary’s scheduled presidency. It “quest...

Boris Johnson got ‘bored’ with COVID, former aide claims

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 21:00:32 GMT

LONDON — Boris Johnson declared himself “epileptically bored with COVID” in 2022 as he mulled scrapping free tests for the virus, according to his former communications chief.Guto Harri, who served as a senior aide to Johnson in 2022, told his Global podcast series that the U.K.’s then-prime minister grew to see the pandemic as an “irrelevance,” and made those views known in tense government debates about whether to keep using state cash to provide Brits with free tests for the virus. Harri said that there was “an almighty row” over the issue between Johnson and his Health Secretary Sajid Javid, who eventually resigned in the summer of 2022 in a move that dealt a mortal blow to Johnson’s struggling administration.According to Harri, Johnson was concerned that providing free tests was “dwarfing the budgets of entire departments,” and argued that the U.K. should instead focus on trying to “spot the next COVID.”The...

Parliament backs EU funds-for-ammo plan

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 21:00:32 GMT

The European Parliament on Thursday voted in favor of a Commission proposal aimed at diverting EU funds toward ramping up the production of ammunition.The move has attracted criticism because it represents a shift in resources away from green and digital projects. It still needs the approval of the bloc’s national governments.Legislation was presented in April as part of a three-track plan agreed by EU leaders to provide Ukraine with one million pieces of ammunition in 12 months. It’s another step toward using the EU budget for defense purposes — despite “expenditure arising from operations having military or defense implications” technically being banned by EU treaties.Officials argue the budget is not being used for military operations but to boost the bloc’s industrial capacity.This bill, known as the Act in Support of Ammunition Production (ASAP), is part of a bigger push, spearheaded by France and French EU Defense and Industry Commissioner Thierry Br...
