Hungary and Slovakia Block New EU Sanctions on RussiaThe 18th EU sanctions package faces opposition from Hungary and Slovakia due to their reliance on Russian energy sources.
- Hungary and Slovakia oppose the EU’s 18th sanctions package against Russia over concerns about energy security.
- The sanctions focus on Russia’s energy sector, including a $45 per barrel price cap on seaborne crude oil.
- Both countries maintain warm ties with Moscow and depend heavily on Russian gas and oil imports.
- There is still hope that disagreements might be resolved during the upcoming two-day EU summit.
Together with Slovakia, we have prevented the adoption of the sanctions package.— Hungarian Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó, during a press conference regarding the opposition to the EU sanctions on Russia.

Swiss President Restricted to National Languages AbroadA parliamentary motion mandates Swiss President to use only German, French, Italian, or Romansh in official international communications.
- The House of Representatives approved a motion requiring the Swiss President to communicate internationally in one of the national languages only.
- This decision followed the Financial Action Task Force’s choice to use English for Switzerland’s upcoming evaluation.
- Opponents argue this could lead to additional interpreter expenses and practical difficulties at international meetings.
- Despite these concerns, the motion passed with 93 votes in favor, 81 against, and 15 abstentions.
I will no longer have the right to speak in English with leaders of other countries and organisations.— Karin Keller-Sutter, the Swiss finance minister, comments on the new motion that restricts her from speaking English.

Controversy Over Employer Views on Minimum WagesRoland A. Müller claims companies already fund social security via taxes, sparking sharp political backlash in Switzerland.
- Roland A. Müller stated employers should not be required to ensure living wages since corporate taxes support social security.
- His remarks arose amid discussions about whether federal authorities should overturn cantonal minimum wage laws.
- Müller cautioned that excessive minimum wages might eliminate jobs in sectors with insufficient profitability.
- Employers warn that varied cantonal wage standards could create a patchwork endangering the wage system's stability.
One cannot demand that employers or the economy provide for basic living needs. At some point, it has to stop.— This statement was made by Roland A. Müller during a hearing before the Economic Commission of the National Council.
