Hungary Lifts Veto on Ukraine EU Accession Talks, Conditional on Minority Rights

Hungary has lifted its veto on Ukraine's EU accession talks, specifically unblocking two policy areas and broader accession negotiations. This reversal is contingent on Ukraine's parliamentary vote on minority rights and amendments to its minority education law. The move signals a potential thaw in Hungary-Ukraine relations and advances Ukraine's EU integration path.
