PoliticsUkraine advances EU membership bid, opening four of six integration clusters

Ukraine opened EU enlargement clusters 2 and 3, covering the internal market and competitiveness, at a ceremony in Luxembourg on Oct. 13. The step followed parliament’s passage of a law strengthening rights for the Hungarian-speaking minority, a condition Hungary had set for further progress. The EU hopes to open the remaining two clusters by the end of 2026.
