What Happened
European Union officials expect progress this week on Ukraine aid and Israeli settler sanctions following Viktor Orban's electoral defeat in Hungary. The bloc aims to release a 90-billion-euro loan to Ukraine and impose sanctions on violent Israeli settlers. A Wednesday meeting will seek consensus on the budget amendment before final adoption. Hungary's incoming leader Peter Magyar signals openness to both initiatives previously blocked by Orban.
