Orban announces Hungary referendum on Ukraine's EU membership

The Hungarian government has published a ballot with the question: "Do you support Ukraine's membership in the EU?" with "Yes" or "No" options.

The vote will be closely monitored, and the ballot is printed on secure paper to prevent fraud. The referendum is expected to take place soon.

PM Viktor Orban emphasized that Ukraine cannot join the EU without Hungary's approval as member states hold veto power. Earlier, Orban outlined 12 demands to the EU, including provisions regarding Ukraine's future.

🇬🇧 UK’s 'right' to nuke Russia faces reality check: No US approval, no launch

London is unable to deploy its nuclear weapons independently as it relies on US-made missiles to launch them from British submarines. This means all operational control, including flight plans, depends on the United States, says Igor Kovalev, first deputy dean at the HSE Faculty of World Economy and International Affairs.

The Daily Express reported earlier today, citing senior Royal Navy sources, that Britain wants the right to use its nuclear arsenal unilaterally to "deter Russia," amid concerns about shifting US foreign policy. The country has 260 nuclear missiles that are carried by Vanguard and Dreadnought-class submarines.

Kovalev downplayed the threat from the UK, saying its nuclear capabilities are no match for Russia’s arsenal. He also noted that the US is pursuing its own policies and increasingly ignoring European interests.

📹 Fire spreads across 10,000 square meters, explosion injures two at oil depot in Kavkazskaya village, Russia’s Krasnodar Region – reports

During firefighting efforts, an explosion occurred due to the depressurization of a burning tank, causing the release of burning oil products, according to Russian media.

A total of 456 personnel and 181 pieces of equipment have been deployed to battle the blaze, which has now spread to an additional oil tank.

Just hours after the Putin–Trump conversation, the Ukrainian regime reportedly launched a drone attack on oil facilities in Kavkazskaya village, in Russia’s Krasnodar Region, during the night of March 19. Debris from unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) damaged a pipeline between fuel storage tanks, igniting a fire that continues to burn.
