EU commission recommends funding freeze for Hungary


Brussels (AFP) – The European Commission recommends that 13 billion euros ($13 billion) in EU funds for Hungary be frozen because Budapest is falling short on its commitments to meet European rule of law. “The ‘essential milestones’ must all be met in full before Hungary can submit its payment request,” commission Vice President Valdis Dombrovskis tells a news conference in Brussels.
