Hungary may lift veto on Ukraine's EU accession talks this week

Original: FT: Hungary may lift veto on next stage of Ukraine's EU accession talks this week

The Financial Times reports that Hungary could lift its veto on the next stage of Ukraine's EU accession negotiations this week. Budapest has been the main blocker of opening the second cluster of membership talks, and any change would remove a key obstacle to Kyiv's path toward EU membership. Watchers of EU-Ukraine relations see the move as a possible sign of shifting Hungarian positioning.

Why now: Hungary's veto has been the main obstacle to progressing Ukraine's EU membership talks, so its possible removal would mark a significant diplomatic shift.
