Britain's Prince Harry wins 15 claims in phone-hacking case against Mirror publisher
LONDON — Prince Harry has won 15 claims in his case accusing Mirror Group Newspapers of unlawfully gathering information for stories published about him.A judge has ruled in his favour on almost half of the sample of 33 stories used in his claims of phone hacking and other methods.A High Court ruling found evidence of "widespread and habitual" use of phone hacking at the Mirror newspapers.Prince Harry described it as a "great day for truth" and accountability.He was awarded £140,600 in damages and in a statement read out on the Duke of Sussex's behalf outside the High Court, his lawyer David Sherborne called the ruling "vindicating and affirming"."This case is not just about hacking — it is about a systemic practice of unlawful and appalling...

Hungary blocks €50bn of EU funding for Ukraine
BRUSSELS — Hungary has blocked €50bn ($55bn; £43bn) in EU aid for Ukraine hours after agreement was reached on starting membership talks."Summary of the nightshift: veto for the extra money to Ukraine," Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban posted on social media after talks in Brussels.EU leaders said talks on aid for Ukraine would resume early next year.Ukraine is critically dependant on EU and US funding as it continues to fight occupying Russian forces.The aid blocking was announced by Orban shortly after the EU leaders decided to open membership talks with Ukraine and Moldova and to grant candidate status to Georgia.Hungary has long opposed membership for Ukraine but did not veto that move.Orban left the negotiating room momentarily in what officials described as a...

Putin tells Russia his war objectives are unchanged
MOSCOW — Russian President Vladimir Putin has said peace with Ukraine will only take place "when we achieve our objectives".He was fielding questions from journalists and ordinary Russians in his first marathon news conference since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine began in February 2022.Much of the largely choreographed event focused on what he calls the "special military operation in Ukraine".He insisted the situation was improving throughout the front line.The "direct line" program, televised for more than four hours by most major channels, began with President Putin telling Russians: "The existence of our country without sovereignty is impossible. It will simply not exist."He added that Russia's economy was strong for a time of war and...

Viktor Orban accuses the EU of lowering the bar to let Ukraine in
Eyes on Hungary's Orban as EU leaders decide on support for Ukraine
BUDAPEST — If Ukraine is going to get anything out of an EU leaders' summit on Thursday, it will need the grudging backing of Hungary's Prime Minister, Viktor Orban.He has strongly resisted Kyiv's bid to join the EU and its pleas for aid."We are the voice of common sense in Europe," he told the Hungarian parliament on the eve of the summit.War, corruption, a big agricultural sector and mistreatment of its Hungarian minority disqualify Kyiv from joining the EU any time soon, he said.A symbolic invitation to Ukraine to start formal negotiations tops the agenda of the two-day meeting in Brussels, alongside a pledge of €54bn (£46bn; $58bn) in EU funds to tide the Ukrainian economy through 2024, and a further €24bn in military support.Hungarian objections threaten...

Serbians dreaming of EU membership feel betrayed by Vučić’s government
BELGRADE — Ten years after Serbia began talks to join the European Union, pro-Western, democracy activists in the country said they feel betrayed by their government and the EU for failing to move the process forward.Predrag Vostinic, a 48-year-old activist, has founded a grassroots movement in the Balkan nation as a way to fight back against the rising authoritarianism of President Aleksandra Vučić’s government, its corruption, and the organised crime gripping the country.The movement has led weekly protests against Vučić as part of a wider movement calling for the president to step down following two deadly mass shootings on May 3 and 4 that shook the nation.Nine students and a school guard were killed in the first shooting, when a 13-year-old opened fire at an elementary school...
