Olha Stefanishyna, Deputy Prime Minister for European and Euro-Atlantic Integration of Ukraine, claims that 26 EU member states were considering depriving Hungary of its right to veto had it blocked the decision to start negotiations with Ukraine.
Slovakia, I don’t know, but the Netherlands not really. The one party that might want to veto it, while the biggest in parliament, only (“only”) got 20% of the votes. If they get to govern (which is not set in stone yet), they’ll have to do so in a coalition with other parties who would not let that happen.
Have we ever been that close to taking them? I’m assuming he was warned and informed that next time it will happen.
No, but until now, Poland and Hungary protected each other. Things might change now.
Slovakia and The Netherlands are the new wild cards. We’ll see how things shake out.

And Italy, why are we left out? 🤌🤌🤌 Italy is part of the “family” too, with the Nederlands, Slovakia, Hungary… and the UK of course!
The UK isn’t in any EU discussions any more…
