EU Proposes Economic Measures Against Hungary Over Ukraine Aid Dispute
• EU has proposed plans to damage Hungary's economy if it blocks $42.6 billion aid package for Ukraine • Proposals include triggering run on Hungary's currency, collapsing investor confidence, and hitting "jobs and growth" • Hungary vetoed earlier $42.6 billion Ukraine aid plan in December; threatens to block it again • Hungary open to using EU budget for Ukraine aid if given veto power over it • EU has threatened economies before over rule of law disputes, but not to this extent of directly trying to crash a member state's economy
