ČRo Plus | Slovakia and Hungary face oil supply issues and file a complaint against Ukraine with the European Commission

What role does the Association Agreement with Ukraine play in resolving this dispute? Viktor Daněk, Deputy Director of EUROPEUM Institute, comments on the situation.
24. July 2024
