European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen hopes that EU accession negotiations with Ukraine can also start on other topics before the summer. Official accession negotiations began on Monday with the first cluster, on the rule of law. Von der Leyen hopes that negotiations on the five other thematic clusters can be opened in July. She said this on Thursday upon arrival at the summit of EU heads of government.
