> Hungary is expected to lift its veto this week on the technical phase of Ukraine’s EU accession talks, the Financial Times reported, citing sources. Prime Minister Peter Magyar has instructed diplomats not to block letters concerning the possible opening of chapters on the internal market and competitiveness. Full Hungarian political support depends on Ukraine’s parliament passing a bill on minority educational rights on October 12.
