Hungary Prepares Reforms to Join European Public Prosecutor's Office

European Chief Prosecutor Laura Kövesi discussed Hungary's accession to the European Public Prosecutor's Office (EPPO) in Budapest, with Hungary preparing reforms to combat EU fund misuse. The move signals a potential shift in Hungary's stance on EU rule-of-law mechanisms, though the timeline and scope of reforms remain uncertain. If completed, it would extend EPPO oversight to Hungarian authorities, a notable development given past tensions with Brussels.
