NATO representative says the NATO-Ukraine commission meeting reportedly vetoed by Hungary was not planned

NATO says they do not have plans to hold a meeting of the NATO-Ukraine Commission in December, reports UNIAN, citing a source in the Alliance.

This was reported by an official Alliance representative, commenting on a statement by Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Péter Szijjártó that Budapest opposes the holding of a meeting of the NATO-Ukraine Commission in December due to the law “On Education”.

 “There is no plan to hold a meeting of the NATO-Ukraine Commission in December,” the source said.

At the same time, the Alliance noted that they are "committed to strong partnership relations with Ukraine", and meetings of the Commission are held regularly at various levels, the most recent of which was held in Kyiv in July.

Hungarian Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó previously said that Hungary vetoed the convocation of the meeting of the NATO-Ukraine Commission, which is scheduled for December 6.
