Interfax-Ukraine reported the information.

"Today I am visiting Budapest for consultations on the rights of national communities. This is not an easy dialogue, but Ukraine is determined to find solutions that will unblock the negotiation process. Therefore, I consider statements about the possibility of making a decision on Moldova (without Ukraine) during my visit to Budapest as unconstructive," said Stefanishyna.

According to her, a phone call with the European Commissioner is scheduled for May 1, during which the Deputy Prime Minister plans to raise this issue.

  • The European Union is considering the possibility of separating Moldova's accession process from Ukraine's due to Hungary's resistance to negotiations with Kyiv.
