Among the Hungarian national regions, the Transcarpathian community is in the most difficult situation. Hungary supports Transcarpathia,
always, always and everywhere supports the people who live here, supports Transcarpathian Hungarians, the provision of their basic rights, the recovery of their rights to use the language
– said Gergely Gulyás, who thanked all those who made it possible for the institution and the new building of the training center to open its doors.
Hungary condemns the Russian aggression, condemns the start of the war and the violation of its territorial integrity, the minister stated.
He reminded that since the outbreak of the war, the financial support of Ukraine, especially Transcarpathia, has been continuous.
The value of Hungary’s monetary assistance since the beginning of the war exceeded HUF 35 billion. Charitable organizations delivered thousands of tons of donations worth about HUF 10 billion to Ukraine and, in cooperation with the Hungarian state, ensured the reception of tens of thousands of refugees from Ukraine and the passage of more than one million refugees through Hungary.
Gergely Gulyás stated.
Speaking about bilateral relations, he emphasized: good neighborly relations are important for Hungary, “he wants to be a friend of Ukraine”, but this
the one-sidedness of the gestures, intentional misunderstandings and steps that violate the rights of the Hungarian community make it difficult.
While Ukraine legitimately complains about the violation of its sovereignty by referring to international law, in the meantime
ignores the fundamental rights and international norms of the national minorities living in its territory
Gergely Gulyás said.
The Hungarians who fought for the freedom of Ukraine and sacrificed their lives deserved that the country regards them as its own and returns to them everything that was taken from them, above all the free use of the mother tongue everywhere, but especially in education, he underlined.
The new MCC building is already a preparation for a better future after the war, Gergely Gulyás said. According to him, the MCC provides a unique opportunity for talented young people from the age of 10 to the completion of doctoral school both in the Carpathian Basin and in Hungary.
Let us pray and work so that the war ends as soon as possible and that peace can arrive as soon as possible, concluded the minister leading the Prime Minister’s Office.
Viktor Mikita, head of the Transcarpathian military administration, thanked Hungary for its humanitarian assistance to Ukraine. THE
Without the various national communities living here, Transcarpathia would never be what we know it to be
– declared the head of the county.
People have been living here in peace and tolerance for a thousand years, and I will do everything to ensure that it remains so in the future.
said Viktor Mikita. MCC opened its doors on Beregszász six years ago. Since then, despite the hardships of the war, the institution’s activities have been continuously expanded, so it now starts the new school year with 234 students in its new, more spacious and modern center than before.
