Ukraine's parliament has passed legislation protecting Hungarian minority rights, a key demand from Budapest. This action has led Hungary to lift its veto, allowing all 27 EU member states to agree to open the second and third stages of Ukraine's EU accession negotiations. Implementation of the new law and sustained Hungarian support remain key uncertainties.
