EU Explores Ways of Acting More Quickly on Foreign Policy

The EU will discuss options on how to act more swiftly on foreign policy matters, an area in which most decisions need unanimity, which has seen Hungary oppose many actions in favor of Ukraine and against Russia in recent years.

A group of a dozen countries has looked into unexplored legal possibilities to proceed by qualified majority instead of unanimity, according to a document seen by Bloomberg that was circulated to member states ahead of an informal gathering of EU foreign ministers on Saturday in Copenhagen.
