EU clears path for Ukraine’s accession talks after Hungary deal

TL;DR Summary
All 27 EU member states gave the green light to open the first enlargement cluster of accession talks with Ukraine and Moldova after Hungary’s agreement over minority rights, with a formal start targeted for mid-June in Luxembourg. The plan outlines six clusters covering different policy areas; some clusters may open in June while others could be delayed by concerns such as the internal market and Polish worries, underscoring that full membership remains a long-term process.
