Ukraine is not ready to start talks on its membership in the European Union in any way, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said on Friday.
“Ukraine in no way ready to talk about its ambition to join the EU … It is impossible to start negotiations, this is a clear Hungarian position,” Orban said on air of Hungary’s radio station.
Orban added that Hungary will never agree to link the issue of paying Ukraine from the European Union budget and its admission into the bloc with the return of frozen money from EU funds to Budapest.
Orban recalled that the EU owes Hungary “a lot of money”— up to five billion euros.
