European Union flags outside the EU headquarters in Brussels. Archive photoBERLIN, May 25. Discussion of the sixth package of sanctions at the upcoming extraordinary summit of EU leaders on May 30-31 is not planned yet, a source in the German Cabinet told reporters. «Discussion of the sixth package of sanctions is not yet provided,» said the interlocutor.According to her, the approval of the sixth package of sanctions continues, and Berlin hopes that «these negotiations will be completed quickly.» She added that the summit of EU leaders in this context is not an appropriate format for discussing technical details. At the same time, EU leaders will discuss developments in Ukraine, energy, and economic issues. Earlier, the Financial Times reported that Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban notified the head of the European Council, Charles Michel, which considers it counterproductive to discuss the package of EU sanctions against the Russian Federation at the level of leaders in the absence of consensus.
