> Brussels could restrict Ukraine’s access to agricultural subsidies and the EU food market if it joins the bloc, according to an internal European Commission document cited by the Financial Times.

The proposal would link subsidies to reforms and accession commitments and make it easier to suspend voting rights for rule-breaking members.
