Second And Third EU Accession Negotiation Clusters Could Open October 13 — Chentsov

Ukraine's Deputy Prime Minister for European and Euro-Atlantic Integration, Vsevolod Chentsov, announced that the second and third negotiation clusters for the country's EU accession could commence as early as October 13. This would occur following the passage of a bill addressing the educational rights of Ukraine's indigenous peoples and national minorities.

Chentsov revealed this during a meeting of the Committee on Education, Science and Innovation on UATV English. An intergovernmental conference between Ukraine and Hungary is scheduled for October 13, which prompted the hope of opening the negotiation clusters immediately afterwards. The Ukrainian parliament passed the bill, No. 16119, which is crucial to fulfill Ukraine's commitments to European integration and agreements with neighboring countries.
