Top EU leaders to boycott meetings hosted by Orban after his approach to Russia
Top EU officials will boycott informal meetings hosted by Hungary while the country has the EU’s rotating presidency, after Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban held a series of meetings with foreign leaders that angered European partners, the European Commission said on Monday.
The unusual decision to have the European Commission president and other top officials boycott the meetings was made ‘’in light of recent developments marking the start of the Hungarian (EU) presidency”, commission spokesman Eric Mamer said.
