Informal EU Council Meeting Taking Place In Lviv

(MENAFN- UkrinForm) Lviv Regional Governor Maksym Kozytskyi announced this on Facebook, according to Ukrinform.

The event brought together EU Enlargement Commissioner Marta Kos, Denmark's Minister for European Affairs Marie Bjerre, Ukraine's Deputy Prime Minister for Euro-Atlantic Integration Taras Kachka, as well as ministers and diplomats from several countries.

"During the event, they will discuss the possibility of introducing the 'frontloading' approach – a mechanism that will allow Ukraine and Moldova to begin preparing for the next stages of negotiations even before they officially start. This is a temporary but strategically significant decision aimed at minimizing the consequences of Hungary's veto," Kozytskyi said.
