Hungary is running out of time to secure its students' participation in the EU's Erasmus+ exchange programme, despite earlier assurances from Prime Minister Péter Magyar and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen that the process would be completed on schedule.
Following Magyar's election victory in April, both the new Hungarian government and the Commission signalled their willingness to readmit Hungarian students to the scheme from the start of the next academic year in September. But without immediate administrative action from Budapest, the Commission will not be able to lift the suspension in time.
