Szijjarto: Hungary prepared to aid Ukraine but demands respect for minorities

Hungary is prepared to keep helping Ukraine in the future, but it also expects Kiev to respect the rights of the local Hungarian community, Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said in Vilnius on Wednesday. A strong and prosperous Ukraine is in Hungary's interest, but it is also crucial that the Ukrainian government guarantees the acquired rights of the country's Hungarian minority, including their right to use their mother tongue, Szijjarto told a conference on Ukraine.
