The Ukraine-EU summit, which is scheduled for July 9, may not take place due to the position of Hungary, which sharply criticizes the new Ukrainian law on education, which infringes on the rights of ethnic Hungarians in Transcarpathia.
Director of the Agency for Social Communications Sergei Belashko stated this at a press conference in Kyiv, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“All summits with NATO were blocked by the Hungarian side. Now Hungary has introduced an initiative at the NATO level that NATO should include in its security sphere those territories of Ukraine that are inhabited by minorities that have a state within NATO. We are talking about Hungarians and Romanians.
With the same success, Hungary can block the summit with the EU, just as it blocks the NATO summit with Ukraine. I see no guarantee that it will happen.
Moreover, now there is an escalation of military actions in the Donbass, and, at the initiative of the Ukrainian side, an attack on Gorlovka, the explosion of a bridge on the Lugknsk-Krasny Luch highway, etc.
The second topic that puts Ukraine on the European agenda is hosting the Champions League final. 2200 Real Madrid fans refused to attend this event and handed over their tickets, because housing prices were inflated for these days, the entire center was blocked off and dug up. All this ends up on the Internet and the European media and everyone who is interested in football sees it,” Belashko said.
