Background:
-
On 14 December the EU leaders supported the start of negotiations between Ukraine and Moldova.
-
Even though the decision was being blocked by Hungary for a long time, its veto was neutralised when Hungary’s PM Viktor Orbán was asked to leave the room during the voting and thus abstain from voting.
-
Orbán himself later claimed that he agreed not to veto the start of Ukraine’s EU accession talks since he would have many more opportunities to block this process.
