“BJP is losing terribly in Himachal,” the Deputy Chief Minister added. Satyendar Jain was arrested today so that he could not travel to Himachal. He’ll be released in a few days because the case is a hoax.”
In January, Arvind Kejriwal stated that his sources informed him of Mr Jain’s impending arrest by the ED.
“From our sources, we have learned that right before Punjab polls, in the following few days, the ED is going to arrest Satyendar Jain,” Mr Kejriwal remarked to reporters before the AAP’s victory in the Punjab elections. They’re more than welcome. Satyendar Jain had already been raided by the centre, but nothing was found,”
“I don’t believe we’ll be able to come to an agreement today.” We’ll aim to reach an agreement by the June summit, which is the most realistic strategy at this point,” Kallas added.
The next summit will take place on June 23rd and 24th.
Some people were furious at the lack of a deal.
“We’re getting a little mired down in all of the intricacies,” Latvian Prime Minister Krisjanis Karins stated.
“It’s just money,” he remarked, adding, “We can and must help them, if only out of self-interest, since only when Russia is beaten will we in Europe feel safe.”

According to a draught text obtained by Reuters, an ultimate sixth package of EU sanctions will include a restriction on seaborne oil imports, with pipeline oil supplied to landlocked Hungary, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic to be sanctioned at a later date.
The leaders will not, however, finalise a deal on this at this time; instead, they will ask ambassadors and ministers to find a solution that ensures fair competition between those who continue to get Russian oil and those who have been cut off.
“These are not simple decisions,” Belgian Prime Minister Alexander De Croo remarked, adding, “I have no doubt that judgments will be made within the next days, weeks.”
Hungary’s prime minister, Viktor Orban, indicated as he arrived at the EU summit that things were not looking good on an oil embargo. Hungary is the key holdout on a compromise on a Russian oil restriction.
“At this point, there is no room for compromise,” Orban stated. “We are prepared to back the package… If there are answers for the security of Hungarian energy supply, we don’t have them yet.”
In any case, one tangible conclusion of the conference should be agreement on a package of EU loans totaling 9 billion euros ($9.7 billion) for Ukraine to keep its government running and pay employees for around two months, with a modest component of grants to cover part of the interest. However, a decision on how to proceed is required.
