**TLDR SUMMARY**
Hungary and Slovakia vetoed a proposal for EU sanctions against Georgian officials in response to the violent crackdown on pro-EU protests. This situation arose after Georgia suspended its EU membership talks until 2028. The sanctions, proposed by EU foreign affairs chief Kaja Kallas, aimed at targeting officials involved in repressing the demonstrations but required unanimous approval from all EU member states. Despite the objections from Hungary and Slovakia, the EU is considering suspending visa liberalisation for holders of Georgian diplomatic passports.
Meanwhile, due to human rights abuses and government corruption, the Baltic states have taken independent action by sanctioning significant Georgian leaders, including Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze. The ongoing political crisis in Georgia is rooted in disputed elections and controversial legislation undermining EU values.

We need to get rid of veto system (and establish some other system to ensure that smaller countries won’t be tramped by the bigger economies. I am thinking council that would be composed solely from the representatives of smaller countries like baltics and balkans where the majority of votes would decide if the law is compromising for the smaller nations)
Hey at least I am proposing *some* solution, if it’s bad or good that is for the discussion

Here is what our russian asset said about the decision: “The European Union has set a world record for political hypocrisy regarding Georgia,”He criticized Brussels for targeting Georgia simply because “a peace-oriented, patriotic, conservative party” won elections instead of liberal forces. Minister Szijjártó highlighted Georgia’s progress under the Georgian Dream party, which has governed for 12 years: average incomes have tripled, per capita GDP has doubled, and foreign investments have grown significantly. “No one in Brussels has the right to question the will of the Georgian people,” he emphasized.

Missing the democratic transition of Russia has to be the biggest failure of contemporan History.
Democratic and peaceful Russia would have made a thriving Europe.

Slovakia’s foreign policy is a schizophrenia at it’s finest. On one side, Slovakia is glad of Romania and Bulgaria being in the Schengen, but on the other side, vetoes sanctions against Georgia’s pro russian government

In any way. Hungary and now Slovakia only have 2 goals: destroy the west and enrich the fascist pig that is in charge. Law, rules and democracy do not work just like with Russia, you have to hit them and hit them hard.
