The EU plans to open cluster 6 External Relations for Ukraine and Moldova at a General Affairs Council meeting in Brussels on 14 July, after the Committee of Permanent Representatives (Coreper) decided on 8 July to send the two countries letters requesting their negotiating positions. The EU intends to adopt common negotiating positions on cluster 6 by the afternoon of 10 July, with intergovernmental conferences to launch the cluster scheduled alongside the council meeting. The step follows Hungary's earlier block and its agreement on 3 July, according to European Pravda citing EU sources.

Cluster 6 external relations will open on 14 July.
