NATO: A meeting of Nato foreign ministers in Brussels today produced “no consensus” on whether to invite Ukraine to join the transatlantic military alliance, according to Hungary’s Peter Szijjarto.

Kiev sees Nato membership as an essential condition for bringing an end to its current war with Russia, but the Hungarian foreign minister warned that it “would be tantamount to initiating World War III.”

BELGIUM: Authorities said today that they had opened a fraud investigation into former EU justice commissioner Didier Reynders, just days after his mandate ended.
