Summary/Abstract: As head of the rotating presidency of the EU, Hungary will have an opportunity to become an effective champion of good governance and integrity across Europe. The upcoming months of the Hungarian presidency will be critical for advancing the anti-corruption agenda at the level of the Union. This is not a question of narrow political concern. Rather it is about fulfilling the expectations of over three-quarters of the citizens of the EU. It also represents an opportunity for Hungary to make a difference in terms of leadership by offering its full support to policies addressing corruption, one of the most acute public concerns within the Union.
