Commission proposes funding cut for Hungary but opens compromise path
Summary by Ground News
EU Budget Commissioner Johannes Hahn said that despite measures Hungary has proposed to address the deficiencies, the European Commission is recommending the suspension of funds. Any action to suspend the funds must be approved by EU's 27 member countries, and this requires a 55% majority. The European Commission has accused Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban of dismantling democratic institutions.
