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~

‘That’s A LIE’:Booker Vs Cruz Explodes In Senate Over Judge Threats | Booker RAGES Over Protest Laws [Video]

‘That’s A LIE’:Booker Vs Cruz Explodes In Senate Over Judge Threats | Booker RAGES Over Protest Laws

Senators Cory Booker and Ted Cruz engaged in a fiery exchange during a Senate Judiciary Subcommittee hearing on threats to federal judges. As Cruz accused Democrats of remaining silent during threats against conservative justices, Booker pushed back, calling the remarks “dangerous” and a “patent lie.” The tense back-and-forth highlighted rising political divisions over judicial safety, enforcement of protest laws, and the legacy of Trump-era rhetoric. The hearing, titled "The Supposedly Least Dangerous Branch," underscored growing concerns about the politicization of the judiciary and partisan responses to violence and intimidation. #BookerVsCruz #JudicialThreats #SenateClash #CoryBooker #TedCruz #FederalJudges #SCOTUS #PoliticalDivision #JudiciaryHearing #TrumpEra #DemocratsVsRepublicans #SenateFireworks #USPolitics #PartisanRift #LegalNews #SupremeCourt #DobbsDecision #JudgeSafety #SubcommitteeHearing #CapitolHill #LawAndOrder #DOJ #Protests #FreeSpeechDebate #SenateShowdown #BreakingNews #AmericanPolitics #JusticeSystem #Schumer #Kavanaugh #BookerStrikesBack #CruzVsBooker Also Read Zuckerberg’s testimony before social-media unsavvy gerontocrats & shrewd politicians :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/mark-zuckerberg-testimony-congress-social-media-unsavvy-gerontocrats-ted-cruz-2675671.html?ref=DMDesc Ted Cruz will vote for former rival Donald Trump :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ted-cruz-will-vote-for-former-rival-donald-trump-2217831.html?ref=DMDesc GOP Convention turns ugly as Ted Cruz faces insults for not endorsing Trump :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/republican-convention-ted-cruz-faces-insult-not-endorses-trump-2158995.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.103~GR.125~

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~

India has crossed 7,000 active COVID-19 cases, with Kerala reporting the highest spike and three new deaths. The XFG variant, a sub-lineage of Omicron with strong immune evasion, has been detected across the country, raising global alarm. Originating in Canada, the variant carries four spike protein mutations. Globally, SARS-CoV-2 activity is rising, especially in South-East Asia and Eastern Mediterranean regions, with test positivity rates matching last year’s peak.

Trump’s BIG STATEMENT on Trade Deal with India | ‘India a good friends...just can’t do that’

U.S. President Donald Trump has hinted at a possible trade deal with India but warned of steep tariffs if no agreement is reached by August 1. Calling PM Modi a "friend," Trump criticized India’s high tariffs on U.S. goods, threatening 20–25% duties if talks stall. The U.S. had earlier imposed a 26% tariff, now suspended during negotiations. With the fifth round of trade talks just concluded, officials say discussions continue as the deadline nears, with another round slated for August 25. #IndiaUSTradeDeal #TrumpOnIndia #ModiTrump #TradeTalks2025 #TariffThreat #USIndiaRelations #TrumpStatement #TradeDealUpdate #BilateralTalks #HighTariffs #USIndiaTrade #TrumpModi #TradeDeadline #EconomicPolicy #TrumpTariffs #BreakingNews #GlobalTrade #IndiaUSAgreement #TradeNegotiations #WashingtonTalks #PMModi #Trump #August1Deadline #TrumpWarnsIndia #TrumpSpeech #ModiDiplomacy Also Read Trump Reaches Silver Jubilee of India-Pak Ceasefire Claim, PM Totally Quiet: Cong :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-reaches-silver-jubilee-of-india-pak-ceasefire-claim-pm-totally-quiet-cong-7807665.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Accuses Obama Of 'Treason,' Without Providing Evidence :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-accuses-obama-of-treason-without-providing-evidence-7807491.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Announces Japan Trade Deal With 15% Tariff On Imports :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-announces-japan-trade-deal-with-15-tariff-on-imports-7807489.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.346~GR.125~
