Hungary to meet all commitments made to unlock EU funds -minister

Education Culture Youth and Citizenship European Commissioner-designate Navracsics of Hungary addresses the European Parliament's Committee on Culture and Education in Brussels

BUDAPEST (Reuters) - Hungary on Sunday pledged to meet all of its commitments made to the European Commission to unlock European Union funding after the EU executive proposed suspending some 7.5 billion euros for Hungary over corruption.

Development Minister Tibor Navracsics, in charge of negotiations with the EU, said he hoped Hungary's measures would be sufficient to convince the EU Commission that sufficient safeguards will be implemented to protect EU funds.
