The European Commission is releasing ten billion euros in frozen EU funds for Hungary - despite ongoing criticism of the rule of law in the country. The Brussels authority justified the move on Wednesday by stating that Hungary had fulfilled the necessary requirements. Other budget funds amounting to almost twelve billion euros and billions in coronavirus aid remain blocked, as the German press agency Deutsche Presse-Agentur has learned from Commission sources.
