Yeah probably give Ukraine bad time The first round of talks between the EU and Ukraine will take place on 25 June, after member states endorsed the overall framework for negotiations. Ukraine's ambitions to join the European Union could be brought to a six-month standstill as soon as Hungary takes over the Council's rotating presidency. From 1 July to 31 December, Viktor Orbán's government will set the weekly agenda and chair ministerial meetings in Brussels, effectively deciding which topics are put at the top of the list and those sent to the bottom. The official slogan of the presidency will be "Make Europe Great Again," a nod to Donald Trump. www.euronews.com/my-europe/2024/06/18/ukraine-heading-for-accession-impasse-during-hungarys-eu-council-presidency

One of his homey joing EU party Orbán ally-turned-rival Péter Magyar joins centre-right EPP group in the European Parliament The European Parliament's centre-right faction has opened its arms to Péter Magyar, the thorn in Orbán’s side who is swapping Budapest for Brussels. Viktor Orbán’s fiercest political challenger Péter Magyar has joined the European parliamentary group that previously counted the Hungarian prime minister as one of their own. The centre-right group of the European People’s Party (EPP) - which harboured Orbán's Fidesz party until 2021 - opened its doors to Magyar's Respect and Freedom (TISZA) party in a vote in Brussels on Tuesday, meaning the seven TISZA MEPs elected in June's European elections will sit with the parliament's biggest faction. Magyar, a former insider within Orbán's hard-right government, shocked the Hungarian nation earlier this year by blowing the whistle on what he described a www.euronews.com/my-europe/2024/06/18/orban-ally-turned-rival-peter-magyar-joins-centre-right-epp-group-in-the-european-parliame
