Addendum

As Politico reported, there was speculation in Brussels today that Volodymyr Zelenskyy would personally join the EU summit. As indicated, Zelenskyy was eager to attend, and leaders in Brussels eagerly invited him. But, according to the newspaper, citing diplomats, at a meeting of EU ambassadors, several ambassadors expressed reservations about inviting Zelensky to the summit. Their fear was that his presence could cause contradictions with Orban and make the latter even more stubborn.

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban showed no signs ofwillingness to compromise on Ukraine's EU accession when he arrived at the summit on Thursday morning.
