Ukraine expects to open two negotiation clusters regarding accession to the European Union in September-October and another two by the end of 2026, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy has announced.

"We hope that two clusters, as I noted earlier, will be opened for negotiations in September-October, and we would like to unblock another two clusters by the end of this year," Zelenskyy said at the Carpathian 8 Summit on Friday.

According to him, Ukraine and Hungary are discussing a list of issues raised by the Hungarian side, and the Ukrainian government is to prepare a relevant draft bill for consideration by the Verkhovna Rada.

"There was a certain list of points from Hungary, not just one point, but several points. That is, the governments have worked at their level," he stated.
