160,000 Chinese hybrids and nearly €3 billion for Ukraine — how closely did you follow this week's EU news?

EU sanctions, a gas-market grace period for Hungary, aid for Ukraine and Chinese hybrid cars — test how closely you followed this week's developments in the European Union.

  1. Who did the EU sanction on Thursday, after France expelled her in August over alleged 'pro-Russian narratives'?
  2. How long does Hungary get to avoid applying an EU gas-market rule at the Serbian border, after the European Commission approved the Hungarian regulator's request?
  3. How many of the 95 targets did Ukraine meet to receive the EU's eighth payment of nearly €3 billion?
  4. Roughly what share of the EU's diesel imports currently comes from the United States — which is why Washington's 90-day export ban is so concerning?
  5. How large a cohesion fund, frozen over rule-of-law concerns, did Ursula von der Leyen propose to unfreeze?
  6. Only 659 full hybrid cars were sold in the EU in 2022 — roughly how many sold in the first seven months of this year?
  7. True or false: Zelensky said the EU made a huge mistake by removing two Russian oligarchs from its sanctions list.
