President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Wednesday that Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban had no reason to block Ukraine’s EU membership.
Most of the European Union’s 27 members want to open talks on Ukraine’s accession at a summit this week and agree billions of euros in further support for Kyiv in its war against Russia’s invasion. But both moves are being blocked by Hungary.
Zelensky who is visiting Norway for talks with Nordic countries’ leaders on more help to Ukraine also said that battlefield operations were always slowing in winter.
