Hungary’s Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Péter Szijjártó says that Hungary would gladly return to a position supporting Ukraine if Kyiv guarantees that the Education Act is not brought into force before 2023 and is tangibly amended.
“Ukraine must guarantee that the Act, which grossly infringes on the rights of minorities, is not introduced in any form until that time, and during this period it performs the required consultations with the Hungarian minority and implements what is agreed upon at those negotiations,” Hungary’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs quoted the minister as saying. “In addition, a legal guarantee is required with relation to all this, because despite several verbal promises, things have regularly occurred in an opposite direction.”
