## Resource

European Union leaders aim to strengthen sanctions against Russia by extending their duration from six months to a full year. This change is proposed following the departure of Hungarys former Prime Minister, Viktor Orbán, who often used the six-month renewal as leverage. The new plan is expected to be presented by the European Commission in June, with leaders voting on it during a key council meeting.
