Szijjarto: Hungary, Ukraine committed to settling disputes

Both Hungary and Ukraine are committed to settling their disputes in a reassuring way, Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said on Facebook on Friday after talks with his Ukrainian counterpart Dmytro Kuleba in Budapest. There are still some significant issues in bilateral relations where the sides have differing opinions, such as the education and language rights of ethnic Hungarian minorities, Szijjarto told a subsequent press conference. Once the ethnic Hungarians in Transcarpathia say that these matters have been resolved, Hungary will stop blocking the NATO-Ukraine council meetings, he added.
