Have you heard about the Turul statue in Munkács or Munkachevo (idk the name in Ukranian) it was built in 1895 for Hungary's 1000 year aniversary they built only 7 of the in the entire carphatian basin , but in 2022 they took it down and replaced it with a huge ukranian coat of arms and they also took down the hungarian plate (its ok to build a ukranian statue but why destroy the old Hungarian one ?) its kind of sad :(
Eugenia, its two laws that are on debate due to forced ukrainization of minorities: 2017 Educaton law much cancelling education on minority language from the 5th grade ( secondary school)which means that instead of ukrainian learned as second language, púp ILS would require to learn all materials in ukrainian, while minority language can be taught in 1 class a week; 2. the 2019 Language act, "On supporting the functioning of the Ukrainian language as the State language". The law made the use of Ukrainian compulsory (totally or within quotas) in more than 30 spheres of public life, including public administration, electoral process, education, science, culture, media, economic and social life, health and care institutions, and activities of political parties. The law did not regulate private communication. Some exemptions were provided for the official languages of the European Union and for minority languages, with the exclusion of Russian, Belarusian and Yiddish. The Venice Commission and Human Rights Watch expressed concern about on both law's failure to protect the language and education rights of Ukrainian minorities. Apart from Hungary, Romania, Poland, Bulgaria and other countries.The Romanian parliament passed a motion condemning the law and warned that Ukraine could not proceed towards EU integration without respecting the language rights of national minorities. The topic is hot in Romania as well, as the number of ethnic Romanians in the chernowitz region is even higher, nevertheless as Romanians are also impacted by the banning of the Orthodox church as well. So no, these concerns are not an Orban lie, they are actual public concerns and topics in both of these countries where large portion of the voters expect firm representation on the topic from the governments. Actually apart the EU country ethnics, there is also concern on the minorities as ie Rusins in Zakarpathia, a historic minority much endangered in the current headwinds. Let’s be positive the issue will be solved soon, bearing in mind the grace period is over this year,and the education law is coming to effect this year after 1 year of postponement. I am sorry to say, Ukraine govt. will have to adapt to EU best practice in this topic, all countries have reworked their respected regulations conform Venice Court suggestions. Nothing more is expected here, than to follow what others did.
It’s pretty clear that Orban want power, not to help his people. To that end he will lie, distort, block anything that he needs to in order to further his goal of personal power. Great video, thanks for all of your effort and creative ability.
Que ele faz tudo isso o mundo já se apercebeu ,agora o pior é a prepotência com que o faz e todos temos que assistir sempre que o vejo seja na tv ou na internet dá-me vómitos orban fora da União Europeia.
What consoles me is the fact that Hungary has twice been on the losing side in 2 World Wars. If Hungary is on Russia's side against Ukraine then we can hopefully assume that Hungary will again be on the losing side.
@@peterselo7707 Acts like Európe should if wasn't under total US control. All this involvement in the war and the economic mess that it brings upon Európe is totaly against basic european interests. Hungary simply dares to be European and not brainlessly obey anything.
We must hope that the Hungarian opposition will succeed and that the whole Orbanovic gang will be held accountable for all the crimes and corruption they have committed. Thank you for the video
The current opposition is a totally incompetent and a loser bunch of West-paid morons. The Hungarians will not vote them into power under any circumstances.
Is it Orban who is chasing and catching the young Man on the Streets like they were Animals, and forcing them to the front to die? I think ITs an other guy, who for obvious reasons does not allow elections. I think the ukranian public Will hold him accountable if he does not run away in Time.
Well, public opinion researches give only approximate pictures, but it's already clear that he and his party are in serious trouble. Cheer for us mate.
If Orban was truly worried about these people, he would be pushing very hard for Ukraine to join the EU, thus removing the borders and making travel a non-issue for these people. The fact that he is working so hard against it shows that he is full of it.... Slava Ukraini

If everyone is in the EU there is no need to break up. You can keep your language and culture but travel and work and buy property anywhere. It works very well.
You've got that right! NOBODY needs another Yugoslavia. Have you heard of Lurata Lyon? She was a Yugoslavian who barely escaped with her life. It's worth looking her up on here and listening to her incredible story.
But we also have a political party that is Pro-Putin and Pro-Orban. Because they are fascists. And Orban has made clear he wants a piece of Ukraine he wore it on a shirt for God's sake.
It is totally different story as the hungarian minorites in Ukraine. If one -only one- US citizen is in danger or hurty, or menaced by terrosits or by another county, in a another country, US gives the answer. Some US citizens have no idea what the white condor passport means.

Because they have a different approach to language rights in education. Plus, Slovakia and Romania being part of the EU with virtually no borders, families are no longer torn apart, working /studying/making business on the other sideof the border is not a barrier.
All of this has been been nicely worked out during the accension talks to EU and bilaterally. Both Slovakia and Romania made huge progress in harmonizing their language, minority and education laws to EU expectations. Serbia, actually went even further and reintroduced regional autonomy to Voivodina region as it was in Yugoslavia era. Since 2022, Zakarpathia has a very cooperative governor who managed to calm some major terror and abuse concerns that arose in Munkachevo after 2015 . The cooperation with the governor and tge Hungarian state is perfect, whatever he needs, the Hu govt is trying to provide immediately, so that locals and the 100ths of internal refugees from East Ukraine can cope as well as possible in this dire situation. Unfortunaly however on legislation, the govt and parliament needs to act. And there we have some extreme hardliner nationalists. Lets be positive, everything is expected is to pretty much go back to the 2014 state. People learned Russian when they needed, they will learn ukrainian too in a generation. Up to Janukovich leaving, Russian was the other official language so people coped with one or another. Lets face it it is difficult , when from 1 day to another one has to adapt to so frequent changes. Until 1991 the official language was Russian, Btw 1938 -45 huhgarian, 1920-38 slovakian, 1867-1920 Hungarian, 1700-1867 german due to Habsburg rule, 1000-1700 Hungarian. In 2000’s , we still had elderly who lived in 5 countries, without ever leaving their village. Zakarpathia could be the symbol of the insane history of the 20th century Eastern Europe. God bless, all ethnicities in Ukraine would deserve finally some peace, freedom and prosperity!
Thanks for the video, Jane. Love to all the family. People of Hungarian descent in Ukraine enjoy all the rights and freedoms of any Ukrainian citizen. That is simply a fact. Orban is lying. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦 Heroyam Slava 🏅
@@EugeniaFromUkraine Ha ha! In fact, it's not entirely inaccurate and might be something that someone could use in a fun sort of way. I like to see the ways speakers solve new language problems.
Hello, form Hungary! Most of the people don't support Orbans politics for a long time now. It's very clear, that all he wants is power. Unfortunatly it's really hard, to make a change. All the people from the contryside are actively being bought into voting, and the amount of Propaganda people face everyday is truely overwelming. I just really hope his politics dont lead us straight into war. Best wishes for the Ukrainian people! Stay strong!
Yes. You might have even heard of the "Race Card"....... where people insist on certain compensation because they have been a victim of "racism." It has definitely become a common thing here in Sydney Australia, and unfortunately many people get away with it because sometimes Australians are too nice or too "politically correct."
I'm Australian born but with 2 German parents. I recently worked in Bosnia with some on an international project where I met some older Hungarians and Romanian that harbor 70 year old resentment against Ukraine. None so old they were born at the time. It was passed on from parents.. . It was poignant given the Russian backed Ethnic cleansing by "Greater Serbia" extremists that lead to NATO involvement in the region to stop a genocide. -I simply said to that the people that started a civil war in Yugoslvia were total idiots. (I was really talking to them) That if they had of just been peaceful for 15 years they would have joined the EU and the Schengen Zone. Then any person of any language can work and travel and buy property anywhere they like. The EU was designed to stop war. Once Ukraine is in the EU there is no more excuse for resentments. The EU arose out of French desires to prevent future wars with Germany forever by integrating the French and German economies so tightly that war was unthinkable. -Orban is an idiot and possibly a Russian agent but he is a determined one. Unfortunately the EU elites have gone insane with an open borders policy to dubious refugees which is morally wrong. That has to change. Putin exploits this by propagandizing the alt right in Europe, quite successfully.
I am Romanian. I have nothing against Ukraine. As many countries we have a small nationalist minority 10-15%. Maybe you were unlucky to find one of those! 😂
Not Ukraine, Soviet Ukraine being part of USSR. Ukraine has a very challenging history as so many countries here in Eastern Europe. Actially the nation that has the biggest grief against western Ukrainians is Poland due to the insanity of the banderists (see Wolyn/ Lemberg or no Lviv massacres). Ukraine region was always very problematic and often bloody as the Balkans. My dads family is from there hence the name 😂! They find refuge in Transylvania, only then to be again refugees after Trianon in Budapest 1920. My grandad was born in a Wagon refugeecamp on the outskirts of the City which housed 100.000 of thousands. They returned later due to conditions, and noone ever left again despite constant headwinds. It is insane, that almost every generation faced war, ethnic or political athrocities in this region. When we thought its over in the 90’s, as you mention it started again in Yugo and now Ukraine. I would punish all who are lost in direction to eternal play/ repeat of Sag mir ep die Bluhmen sind… until they understand!
Transcarpathia, despite having 3 border crossings (where trade is uninterrupted), is one of, if not the poorest, region in Ukraine. Customs officers, who have been sent here from Lviv and other western regions (where there is only 1 border crossing), complain that they recieved 20 000 hrivnas in other counties and only get 8000 here. Again, the money from these customs does not go to Transcarpathia. The law mentioned in the video would not only limit the use of hungarian in education, but in everyday life as well: for example a hungarian doctor couldn't talk to his patient in hungarian, but would be forced to speak in ukranian, even if both of them very native hungarian speakers. Not to mention, that hungarian children in Transcarpathia struggle with ukranian, because it is taught to them in school, as if they were native ukranians. They study words forthe first 2 grades and then are taught grammar, as if they were already proficient in ukranian. In october of 2022 a sculpture if the Turul bird (the national animal of Hungary and the hungarian people) have been removed from Munkács/Mukachevo. The sculpture stood there for decades and noone took offense. It was not installed by separatist or without permission from Kiev. Yet in 2022 it was removed and the Trizub (the trident, which is an important symbol for Ukraine) took its place. Munkács/Mukachevo still has a notable hungarian population, though of course, not as much as Beregszász/Beregovo. The hungarian names of some settlements have also been removed since the start of the war. Lastly, the frequent power outages, that plague Ukraine started in the autumn of 2022 in Transcarpathia and at first, only in Transcarpathia. When people started asking around, the justification for these outages were "be glad, that you do not get artillery barrages daily" and was essentially a way of bringing the war to us. Later these power outages spread to all of Ukraine. However, a graph from the company Oblenergo showed, that Ungvár/Uzhorod got almost as much electricity as th 3x larger Lviv, despite the Ungvár's lack of power. A month later, it was brought to light, that the company sold electricity to european countries through Ungvár. The company was fined 80 000 hrivnas, which is equivalent to one days earnings for them.
The Hungarian population of the area has been pretty static for a hundred years. However, a century ago it was the majority in the area. Today, Ukrainian immigration has changed that. This is why they feel threatened.
@@EugeniaFromUkraine The point is not that they are particularly oppressed but that they are becoming a minority in an area that used to be a clearly Hungarian majority one. This is unsettling for anybody. (Ask Ukrainians of the Donbas how they regard Russian-speaking immigration to their area since the 1926 Census). I believe Hungarians are now a relative minority in every city in the area and now only an absolute majority in some rural areas. It is the shifting population balance that they feel threatened by.
@@markaxworthy2508 They are so threatened that in the late 1930s Budapest made a deal with Hitler over the region and now another Budapest swine is making a deal with the Kremlin dictator. But the others in the region are the threat
When aspiring dictators and their ideologies fail they always fall back on nationalism and territorial expansion to shore up their support. The narrative of oppression is an easy way to excuse these ideas and is pretty much what the Russians did in Eastern Ukraine. As for the change in language laws; the parents in these areas are tax payers and their children deserve the same educational opportunities as any other Ukrainian citizen. As most third level institutions in Ukraine operate with Ukrainian as their academic language, depriving Hungarian speakers of a Ukrainian language education reduces the opportunities of these Ukrainian citizens. In short it’s Ukraines responsibility that these kids learn in the Ukrainian language. What Orban sells as ‘oppression’ is actually a country giving its people more opportunity.

I personally know people from other ethnic minorities in Transkarpathia, there exist several German speaking villages (some Swabian ones in the lowland and some of Austrian origin in the Eastern mountainous area). I also know some of the Romanian minority. The question those people ask themselves is not "Are we opressed?". The question they ask themselves is, would our lifes have been better if we would have stayed with Czechoslovakia like in the interwar periode, or with Hungary as in the centuries before, or maybe even with next door Romania. Than we would be EU-citizens, we could travel everywhere without visa, we would not be affected by this war, we certainly would be wealthier, life would be easier, etc. Just think, to travel to 500 km away Vienna, they first have to go 700 km East to Kiev to apply for visa there at the embassy, than stay there a few days until you get you passport back, than go back home, relax from this first exhausting trip, and than prepare for going to the originally intended destination. Those people just think: what is it my business, what is going on on the other side of the Carpathians. This view is very common even in neighbouring Romania. Transylvanians also say that they don't care for what is going on on the other side of the mountains. That's how all people inside the Carpathian basin think, not only in Ukrainian Transkarpathia.
Don't worry about Orban. As long As he stands for the Hungarians, he Will be reelected. Zelenszky would fall on an election any day. This is why he does not allow elections to be held Any more.
Yes but Ukraine has literally thousands of years of all kinds and languages and cultures layered on top of each other all baked together; the USA may be a 'mixing pot' but the history and language of Ukraine (and surrounding regions) is like a seven-layer cake.
This language law banned native language education for Hungarian children above 4th grade, essentially them being only able to study their native language as a foreign language. This was a massiive violation of minority rights, which are not just about using your language in public, but also accesing education and public institutions in Hungarian. I am not a big fan of Orbán, but it is absolutely the duty of the Hungarian government to insure minority rights in Zakarpatia, and make it clear that the path to EU membership to Ukraine remains closed until these issues are fully resolved!
Orban's claims will lead to the enclavation of these territories inhabited mostly by ethnic Hungarians, enclaves in which young people will no longer have the same chances and opportunities as other young people with Ukrainian citizenship, not knowing the majority language will be a handicap in getting a good job , or to the desire to occupy leading positions in state institutions, will mean blocking in a reduced space in the Hungarian community. The chances of progressing outside the country will be equal to the chances of any other foreign national who has left his homeland.
@@danchiru1266 If Romania, Serbia and Slovakia allow Hungarian language education then why is it forbidden in Ukraine? Of course, those countries still require the students to learn the local language too, so they have no problem finding jobs or fitting in with the other locals. I had a second cousin in Slovakia, unfortunately she died a few years ago, she was married to a Slovak guy, their two sons were totally bilingual.
I support the previous comment, the issue is not that they do not study Hungarian, the issue is that they do not know Ukrainian at all. And the teaching is in Hungarian, I don't understand what exactly is being violated.
@@danchiru1266 Exactly what prohibits a Hungarian parent/person learning in Ukrainian schools if they desire to do so? On the other hand, if they want to learn in Hungarian schools, it is their choice and responsibility. Have you heard of freedom of choice? Governments should interfere with life of individuals. Forcing them to do whatever the government thinks is good for them is not the way to go. Orban is doing the exact same thing in Hungary: interfere in the lives of families.
@@EugeniaFromUkraine And what exactly is your problem with people not speaking Ukraininan? They are not Ukrainians. There are so many people in Hungary who do not speak Hungarian. Fine with me. If they want to learn Hungarian, fine. If they do not want to or cannot learn Hungarian, fine with me. Why would I force someone learn something he does not want? Their choice.
the only problem i saw when i was in ukraine was that maybe ukrainians were too nice :) speak russian be hungarian we don't care as long as you are ukraine.i never saw any discrimination or hatred to anyone
Hi. A Hungarian here. Re-electing Orban and his party over and over again is our national shame and a tragedy. What concerns the language law and what constitutes "oppression" though, I disagree with you. Forcing you to learn subjects in a language other than your own language is an attempt to assimilate minorities. Yes, there are more bloody ways to pursue this, but still, this law curbs minority rights quite significantly. Beregovo has 50%+ Hungarian population (i.e. minority is a majority), so right and possibility to use their native language there is one thing, but the law (even the version amended in 2023) provides little to no rights in areas where this percentage is under 10%. So, while I support Ukraine 100% and detest what our government does, I believe Ukraine should also be more open to discussion on this issue as this language law thing is rather counter-productive.
Why dont you become Ukrainians then and elect a clown for president with an oligarch as a vice president??? You are so smart that you accuse Orban but if it wasnt for him Hungary would be another France and your neighbors would be black or muslim. And if you dont care about that, why do you care about ukranization of your minority??? Nationalist only when you want and the rest "viva Brussels"?? Thanks to Orban your girls will marry a Hungarian and not an African woman. And where is the respect for the majority of your countrymen??? It is called "democracy"/ in case you didnt know. People vote and those with the most votes, rule. Otherwise you are not Europe, but... Maidan..... (and guess what follows a coup everywhere in history.... a war!!!! what a surprise!!! but I guess that is Putin's fault as well)

@@荒井まめ-m6e At least it is not prohibited to teach and learn whatever subject in German. There are several German (Slovak, Croat, Romanian, etc) schools around Hungary where the language of tuition is in these languages. Whether there are enough schools to offer education in German, Coat, Slovak etc, I don't know. But at least, currently there is no law that those that do exist and operate should close or give up teaching in the given language. As far as I know there are roughly 130 minority schools in Hungary. Unfortunately if population of a certain minority community is not very dense in an area, it is possible that they cannot execrise this right in the in their own village or even in their own region. But if there is funding and enough teachers, it is possible to establish such schools. I think there are 80+ ethnic German educational institutions in Hungary, not counting schools where education is bilingual and those that are primarily for German students (not ethnic citizens of Hungary). Also, some of these German institutions are (partly) sponsored by Germany (e.g Andrassy University and several secondary schools.)
@@ww1www We have 100% Hungarian language from kindergarten to PhD in my country, Romania and you are not satisfied!

As a Czech, I am more allergic to Mr. Orban than anything else. Just seeing his photo makes me very angry and upset. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I don't see him at all. Hungarian citizens could finally arrange it in the elections. 😉✌️🤞 Thank you for the video. It's great. 💙💛
A couple of things...I would think they would have Ukrainian names/descriptions (smaller sized even) below the Hungarian ones just to get Ukrainian business, especially tourism. Or do they do as most of Europe and have "English" available for tourists. Not doing so seems to be an economic penalty for them. If I was Ukrainian and had a choice, I would go to the business that caters to me enough to include Ukrainian names/descriptions. Secondly, Beregovo only became Ukrainian because of the Soviets. Does Ukraine get much benefit from that area (economic mostly)? Does it give the area much support? What does the local citizenry consider themselves? Ethnically Hungarian, I'm sure, but do they "feel" Ukrainian? Then again, Belegovo could be used as a negotiating prize if something came up with Hungary and EU financing or NATO membership. Sometimes you have to grease the palms of those that have what you want. But that depends on the Citizens of that area. Thank you for the video. What didn't you like about your perm? It was a nice change. But I sent you suggestions for how you should have it styled...so you will still be considered stylish and cool!
Young lady, Ukraine is far to be the paradise of the minorities and this is the true! Please, do not make a sugar coating of the Ukranian wrong minority policy. Ukraine don't respect not just the Hungarians but the Romanians especially! Ukraine kept the Basarabia an historic Romanian territory stolen by the USSR before the second World War and Ukraine is keeping it despite his territory is Romanian. Also in this area the Romanians was forced to integrate themselves in the "Great Ukranian social ethic mindset". Young lady, Romania helps you, but honestly Ukraine do not deserve it because of the Ukranian behavior and clinical acting against my country! Even the deepening of Bîstroe channel was made by the Ukraine without the permission of the Romanian government endangering the Danube Delta environment which is under the UNESCO protection. So please let the suggar coating but Ukraine act in many ways as Russia and shame on you for this! Hopefully now, when all Europe and the western world are helping Ukraine to understand the need of respect the minorities and to admit the historic trues as having illegal territories! Is Ukraine claimes Crimea, Dombas and Luhansk as a legitimate request, also Ukraine should admite what territories are not belonging to it.
@@nicucrainic8106 this is true about Romania too. they oppress minorities in the stolen lands, they should give back the lands to the rightful owner. I dont know exactly the history of ukraine but its sure that the Crimea, Odessa, Volhina, Kárpatalja was never Ukrainian, and probably much more, maybe the majority of the lands. We Hungarians dont understand why the thieves consider these lands as theirs. We would know that we just stole something and it is bad. We occupied Croatia for 800 years and we knew it was not really Hungary, we didnt care much about losing it, we gave them autonomy, an own parliament, etc. But your methods really works, to assimilate brutally other people, deport, relocate, persecute, oppress, k'll people, ukrainianize and romanianize areas.
First of all, you have to take into account the state of war Ukraine is in, secondly, the accusation of arrogance and chauvinism fits much better with the Hungarian political class, irredentism and Orban's desire to change the current geopolitical order, to restore the great Hungary, resembles Putin's obsession with restoring the Tsarist empire or reviving the defunct USSR. As a separate fact, around the years 1840-1867, according to the Hungarian statistician Elek Fényes, the proportion of ethnic groups in "Great Hungary" was as follows: Hungarians - 4812759 - 37.36%, Slavs - 4330165 - 33.62%, Vlachs - 2202542 - 17.1%, Germans - 1273677 - 9.89%, Jews - 244035 - 1.89% and others 0.15%. This statistic shows that the Hungarian claims are absurd.

Давайте поговоримо як 300 тисяч українців розчинилися в Угорщині більше сто років тому, коли Угорщина окупувала 170 тисяч км² України.
Які наративи? В офіційних джерелах написано що За переписом 2001 року, угорці складали близько 12% від населення всього регіону (приблизно 150 тисяч людей). Після 24 лютого 2022-го кількість етнічних угорців скоротилась, адже багато з них емігрувало до Угорщини. Але етнічні угорці все ще живуть на Закарпатті

Its like China Town. There is basically one in every major city of the world. Orban wants Ukraine to be a down town. Facts of life but when he wants his deep fried ice cream or chicken feet, he'd best off line up and beg. Your Mum hollered for a taxis?
We have a bunch of laws that have been put in place in Québec to protect the language and our culture. Other provinces don't always seem to understand why these laws were put in place and sometimes we get called racists because we don't want to take english speaking immigrants. Never mind what Orban, you should protect your language and your culture. Even long after this war is over, you will have to keep on fighting for your culture. Keep your language alive, my friends!
@@X0verXDriveX okay, but situation is the exact reverse. Hungarians (and some other nations in this region) are not immigrants (well, not modern day immigrants), these minorities (in several cities even still majority) have been living there since the beginnings of time. The region belonged to the Kingdom of Hungary between 895 and 1920 and Hungarian was and still is the majority language and culture in large parts of that area. Hungarians do not have problem with Ukrainian immigrants there, but try to protect their right to use their language freely, even in schools. This has virtually nothing to do with Orban, but he of course uses this as a good argument for being Putin's puppet.
It was my land hundred or more years ago, I want it back mentality is wrong in this century. Old and useless. The new is cooperation regardless of nationality. Working together is makes us richer and stronger. Against like Putin’s Russia. But, there are leaders who are dividing us for ruling us.
Think of the Hungarian speaking areas in Ukraine as the French speaking area in Canada and you'll get it why Hungarians feel threatened by Ukrainian nationalism and language laws.
I know that you need to talk about that man he is not worth talking to he's not worth talking about because we already know that it's nobody being oppressed and I have heard Hungarian people talk about ukrainians and they say that they are not oppressed schools and everything in Ukraine so how they oppress Victor he is just a he just like putin that or brother that hates ukrainians

And i am an ethnic hungarian from slovakia so i know how rasist the slovaks are towards us and the same is in ukraine. Of course there are always good people too but the goverment of these countries are against hungarians. Also why is zelensky sending the ethnic hungarians to die in your ukraine war? Its not even their Business. Why is zelensky sending my people to the meat Grinder? And why do we need to help ukraine? You are not in the EU. You guys should just surrounder to end this proxy war which you can not win it only leads to more and more death people. People that die for nothing.
Ukraine will never be like Hungary,and Ukraine will never submit their land and people to tyrants.You should have'd learned that by now.Maybe you should surrender your house and family to the russians?
So if they all going to leave for Hungary I don’t see a problem here, to the contrary-problem solved! I met Ukrainian ppl here in the US, very very bad impression, it’s personal one… as far as Russia, if it will help Hungary regain our lost territory, I guess it’s worth it.
@@EugeniaFromUkraine actually I do. I had to leave my homeland, Transylvania because you know those, lovely Romanian neighbors of yours. Same year, 1944, they ripped my homeland away from Hungary and gave it to Romania, same they did with Transcarpathya, so you know, what goes around comes around.
Orban's claims will lead to the enclavation of these territories inhabited mostly by ethnic Hungarians, enclaves in which young people will no longer have the same chances and opportunities as other young people with Ukrainian citizenship, not knowing the majority language will be a handicap in getting a good job , or to the desire to occupy leading positions in state institutions, will mean blocking in a reduced space in the Hungarian community. The chances of progressing outside the country will be equal to the chances of any other foreign national who has left his homeland.
And you have to ask a question to to the president of Hungary if they are so impressed why have they left and went back to hungry if the Hungarian people in Ukraine was so impressed why they haven't they left Ukraine Ukraine a long time ago
Give back Kárpatalja, and problem is solved. It is ancient Hungarian land. Not even Ukrainians stole it, but the Czechs, then the Russians, and they give it to Ukraine 73 years after WWI. Ukraine didnt even exist when it was already stolen. Ukraine illegally occupies it, its a fact.
Have you heard about the Turul statue in Munkács or Munkachevo (idk the name in Ukranian) it was built in 1895 for Hungary's 1000 year aniversary they built only 7 of the in the entire carphatian basin , but in 2022 they took it down and replaced it with a huge ukranian coat of arms and they also took down the hungarian plate (its ok to build a ukranian statue but why destroy the old Hungarian one ?) its kind of sad :(
Eugenia, its two laws that are on debate due to forced ukrainization of minorities: 2017 Educaton law much cancelling education on minority language from the 5th grade ( secondary school)which means that instead of ukrainian learned as second language, púp ILS would require to learn all materials in ukrainian, while minority language can be taught in 1 class a week; 2. the 2019 Language act, "On supporting the functioning of the Ukrainian language as the State language". The law made the use of Ukrainian compulsory (totally or within quotas) in more than 30 spheres of public life, including public administration, electoral process, education, science, culture, media, economic and social life, health and care institutions, and activities of political parties. The law did not regulate private communication. Some exemptions were provided for the official languages of the European Union and for minority languages, with the exclusion of Russian, Belarusian and Yiddish. The Venice Commission and Human Rights Watch expressed concern about on both law's failure to protect the language and education rights of Ukrainian minorities. Apart from Hungary, Romania, Poland, Bulgaria and other countries.The Romanian parliament passed a motion condemning the law and warned that Ukraine could not proceed towards EU integration without respecting the language rights of national minorities. The topic is hot in Romania as well, as the number of ethnic Romanians in the chernowitz region is even higher, nevertheless as Romanians are also impacted by the banning of the Orthodox church as well. So no, these concerns are not an Orban lie, they are actual public concerns and topics in both of these countries where large portion of the voters expect firm representation on the topic from the governments. Actually apart the EU country ethnics, there is also concern on the minorities as ie Rusins in Zakarpathia, a historic minority much endangered in the current headwinds. Let’s be positive the issue will be solved soon, bearing in mind the grace period is over this year,and the education law is coming to effect this year after 1 year of postponement. I am sorry to say, Ukraine govt. will have to adapt to EU best practice in this topic, all countries have reworked their respected regulations conform Venice Court suggestions. Nothing more is expected here, than to follow what others did.

Orban lies? As always...
As Americans , we have Hungarians , as Americans. What Americans don’t need is having Ukraine break apart .like Yugoslavia did .
If everyone is in the EU there is no need to break up. You can keep your language and culture but travel and work and buy property anywhere. It works very well.
You've got that right! NOBODY needs another Yugoslavia. Have you heard of Lurata Lyon? She was a Yugoslavian who barely escaped with her life. It's worth looking her up on here and listening to her incredible story.
I’m listening to her story
But we also have a political party that is Pro-Putin and Pro-Orban. Because they are fascists. And Orban has made clear he wants a piece of Ukraine he wore it on a shirt for God's sake.
It is totally different story as the hungarian minorites in Ukraine. If one -only one- US citizen is in danger or hurty, or menaced by terrosits or by another county, in a another country, US gives the answer. Some US citizens have no idea what the white condor passport means.

Because they have a different approach to language rights in education. Plus, Slovakia and Romania being part of the EU with virtually no borders, families are no longer torn apart, working /studying/making business on the other sideof the border is not a barrier.
All of this has been been nicely worked out during the accension talks to EU and bilaterally. Both Slovakia and Romania made huge progress in harmonizing their language, minority and education laws to EU expectations. Serbia, actually went even further and reintroduced regional autonomy to Voivodina region as it was in Yugoslavia era. Since 2022, Zakarpathia has a very cooperative governor who managed to calm some major terror and abuse concerns that arose in Munkachevo after 2015 . The cooperation with the governor and tge Hungarian state is perfect, whatever he needs, the Hu govt is trying to provide immediately, so that locals and the 100ths of internal refugees from East Ukraine can cope as well as possible in this dire situation. Unfortunaly however on legislation, the govt and parliament needs to act. And there we have some extreme hardliner nationalists. Lets be positive, everything is expected is to pretty much go back to the 2014 state. People learned Russian when they needed, they will learn ukrainian too in a generation. Up to Janukovich leaving, Russian was the other official language so people coped with one or another. Lets face it it is difficult , when from 1 day to another one has to adapt to so frequent changes. Until 1991 the official language was Russian, Btw 1938 -45 huhgarian, 1920-38 slovakian, 1867-1920 Hungarian, 1700-1867 german due to Habsburg rule, 1000-1700 Hungarian. In 2000’s , we still had elderly who lived in 5 countries, without ever leaving their village. Zakarpathia could be the symbol of the insane history of the 20th century Eastern Europe. God bless, all ethnicities in Ukraine would deserve finally some peace, freedom and prosperity!

Yes.
You might have even heard of the "Race Card"....... where people insist on certain compensation because they have been a victim of "racism."
It has definitely become a common thing here in Sydney Australia, and unfortunately many people get away with it because sometimes Australians are too nice or too "politically correct."
I'm Australian born but with 2 German parents. I recently worked in Bosnia with some on an international project where I met some older Hungarians and Romanian that harbor 70 year old resentment against Ukraine. None so old they were born at the time. It was passed on from parents.. . It was poignant given the Russian backed Ethnic cleansing by "Greater Serbia" extremists that lead to NATO involvement in the region to stop a genocide.
-I simply said to that the people that started a civil war in Yugoslvia were total idiots. (I was really talking to them) That if they had of just been peaceful for 15 years they would have joined the EU and the Schengen Zone. Then any person of any language can work and travel and buy property anywhere they like. The EU was designed to stop war. Once Ukraine is in the EU there is no more excuse for resentments. The EU arose out of French desires to prevent future wars with Germany forever by integrating the French and German economies so tightly that war was unthinkable.
-Orban is an idiot and possibly a Russian agent but he is a determined one. Unfortunately the EU elites have gone insane with an open borders policy to dubious refugees which is morally wrong. That has to change. Putin exploits this by propagandizing the alt right in Europe, quite successfully.
Thank you for this comment
Unfortunately alt right in Europe can not win successfully
@@anthony64632 the outright Europe has discredited itself by becoming useful idiots for Putin. This is with the exception of Poland
I am Romanian. I have nothing against Ukraine. As many countries we have a small nationalist minority 10-15%. Maybe you were unlucky to find one of those! 😂
Not Ukraine, Soviet Ukraine being part of USSR. Ukraine has a very challenging history as so many countries here in Eastern Europe. Actially the nation that has the biggest grief against western Ukrainians is Poland due to the insanity of the banderists (see Wolyn/ Lemberg or no Lviv massacres). Ukraine region was always very problematic and often bloody as the Balkans. My dads family is from there hence the name 😂! They find refuge in Transylvania, only then to be again refugees after Trianon in Budapest 1920. My grandad was born in a Wagon refugeecamp on the outskirts of the City which housed 100.000 of thousands. They returned later due to conditions, and noone ever left again despite constant headwinds. It is insane, that almost every generation faced war, ethnic or political athrocities in this region. When we thought its over in the 90’s, as you mention it started again in Yugo and now Ukraine. I would punish all who are lost in direction to eternal play/ repeat of Sag mir ep die Bluhmen sind… until they understand!
Transcarpathia, despite having 3 border crossings (where trade is uninterrupted), is one of, if not the poorest, region in Ukraine. Customs officers, who have been sent here from Lviv and other western regions (where there is only 1 border crossing), complain that they recieved 20 000 hrivnas in other counties and only get 8000 here. Again, the money from these customs does not go to Transcarpathia.
The law mentioned in the video would not only limit the use of hungarian in education, but in everyday life as well: for example a hungarian doctor couldn't talk to his patient in hungarian, but would be forced to speak in ukranian, even if both of them very native hungarian speakers. Not to mention, that hungarian children in Transcarpathia struggle with ukranian, because it is taught to them in school, as if they were native ukranians. They study words forthe first 2 grades and then are taught grammar, as if they were already proficient in ukranian.
In october of 2022 a sculpture if the Turul bird (the national animal of Hungary and the hungarian people) have been removed from Munkács/Mukachevo. The sculpture stood there for decades and noone took offense. It was not installed by separatist or without permission from Kiev. Yet in 2022 it was removed and the Trizub (the trident, which is an important symbol for Ukraine) took its place. Munkács/Mukachevo still has a notable hungarian population, though of course, not as much as Beregszász/Beregovo. The hungarian names of some settlements have also been removed since the start of the war.
Lastly, the frequent power outages, that plague Ukraine started in the autumn of 2022 in Transcarpathia and at first, only in Transcarpathia. When people started asking around, the justification for these outages were "be glad, that you do not get artillery barrages daily" and was essentially a way of bringing the war to us. Later these power outages spread to all of Ukraine. However, a graph from the company Oblenergo showed, that Ungvár/Uzhorod got almost as much electricity as th 3x larger Lviv, despite the Ungvár's lack of power. A month later, it was brought to light, that the company sold electricity to european countries through Ungvár. The company was fined 80 000 hrivnas, which is equivalent to one days earnings for them.
The Hungarian population of the area has been pretty static for a hundred years. However, a century ago it was the majority in the area. Today, Ukrainian immigration has changed that. This is why they feel threatened.
oh I do not know why they are feeling threatened, I have been in Berehovo, no one forces anyone to switch to Ukrainian
@@EugeniaFromUkraine The point is not that they are particularly oppressed but that they are becoming a minority in an area that used to be a clearly Hungarian majority one. This is unsettling for anybody. (Ask Ukrainians of the Donbas how they regard Russian-speaking immigration to their area since the 1926 Census). I believe Hungarians are now a relative minority in every city in the area and now only an absolute majority in some rural areas. It is the shifting population balance that they feel threatened by.

Very interesting 🙂
When aspiring dictators and their ideologies fail they always fall back on nationalism and territorial expansion to shore up their support. The narrative of oppression is an easy way to excuse these ideas and is pretty much what the Russians did in Eastern Ukraine.
As for the change in language laws; the parents in these areas are tax payers and their children deserve the same educational opportunities as any other Ukrainian citizen. As most third level institutions in Ukraine operate with Ukrainian as their academic language, depriving Hungarian speakers of a Ukrainian language education reduces the opportunities of these Ukrainian citizens. In short it’s Ukraines responsibility that these kids learn in the Ukrainian language.
What Orban sells as ‘oppression’ is actually a country giving its people more opportunity.

I personally know people from other ethnic minorities in Transkarpathia, there exist several German speaking villages (some Swabian ones in the lowland and some of Austrian origin in the Eastern mountainous area). I also know some of the Romanian minority.
The question those people ask themselves is not "Are we opressed?". The question they ask themselves is, would our lifes have been better if we would have stayed with Czechoslovakia like in the interwar periode, or with Hungary as in the centuries before, or maybe even with next door Romania. Than we would be EU-citizens, we could travel everywhere without visa, we would not be affected by this war, we certainly would be wealthier, life would be easier, etc.
Just think, to travel to 500 km away Vienna, they first have to go 700 km East to Kiev to apply for visa there at the embassy, than stay there a few days until you get you passport back, than go back home, relax from this first exhausting trip, and than prepare for going to the originally intended destination.
Those people just think: what is it my business, what is going on on the other side of the Carpathians. This view is very common even in neighbouring Romania. Transylvanians also say that they don't care for what is going on on the other side of the mountains. That's how all people inside the Carpathian basin think, not only in Ukrainian Transkarpathia.

Orban est un menteur 🤥
This language law banned native language education for Hungarian children above 4th grade, essentially them being only able to study their native language as a foreign language. This was a massiive violation of minority rights, which are not just about using your language in public, but also accesing education and public institutions in Hungarian. I am not a big fan of Orbán, but it is absolutely the duty of the Hungarian government to insure minority rights in Zakarpatia, and make it clear that the path to EU membership to Ukraine remains closed until these issues are fully resolved!
Orban's claims will lead to the enclavation of these territories inhabited mostly by ethnic Hungarians, enclaves in which young people will no longer have the same chances and opportunities as other young people with Ukrainian citizenship, not knowing the majority language will be a handicap in getting a good job , or to the desire to occupy leading positions in state institutions, will mean blocking in a reduced space in the Hungarian community.

Hi. A Hungarian here. Re-electing Orban and his party over and over again is our national shame and a tragedy. What concerns the language law and what constitutes "oppression" though, I disagree with you. Forcing you to learn subjects in a language other than your own language is an attempt to assimilate minorities. Yes, there are more bloody ways to pursue this, but still, this law curbs minority rights quite significantly. Beregovo has 50%+ Hungarian population (i.e. minority is a majority), so right and possibility to use their native language there is one thing, but the law (even the version amended in 2023) provides little to no rights in areas where this percentage is under 10%. So, while I support Ukraine 100% and detest what our government does, I believe Ukraine should also be more open to discussion on this issue as this language law thing is rather counter-productive.
Why dont you become Ukrainians then and elect a clown for president with an oligarch as a vice president???
You are so smart that you accuse Orban but if it wasnt for him Hungary would be another France and your neighbors would be black or muslim.

Are German-Hungarians guaranteed the right to learn German in Hungary?
@@荒井まめ-m6e At least it is not prohibited to teach and learn whatever subject in German. There are several German (Slovak, Croat, Romanian, etc) schools around Hungary where the language of tuition is in these languages. Whether there are enough schools to offer education in German, Coat, Slovak etc, I don't know. But at least, currently there is no law that those that do exist and operate should close or give up teaching in the given language. As far as I know there are roughly 130 minority schools in Hungary. Unfortunately if population of a certain minority community is not very dense in an area, it is possible that they cannot execrise this right in the in their own village or even in their own region. But if there is funding and enough teachers, it is possible to establish such schools. I think there are 80+ ethnic German educational institutions in Hungary, not counting schools where education is bilingual and those that are primarily for German students (not ethnic citizens of Hungary). Also, some of these German institutions are (partly) sponsored by Germany (e.g Andrassy University and several secondary schools.)

I am from Budapest, Hungary. I am supporting Ukraine of course since I am not an idiot. This is a video I've been waiting for. Thx!
Btw. I have never heard any hungarian from Transcarpathia complaining about life there. And we know whatever our government says it's a lie.
Azért 2014 után körül elég nagy problémák voltak. Nem tudom kivel, kikkel találkoztál, de 2014 es nyelvtörvény utáni állapotok igenis súlyos problémát jelenettek. Az ukrán nacionalizmus nem ártatlan. Volt némi előzménye, hog yoldották meg a "lengyel kérdést" pl. nem szaroztak velük, kiirtották őket.
I have enjoyed my time in Berehovo it’s good town and people were friendly:) the point of the video was to show that Orban’s narratives are manipulative:(

As a Czech, I am more allergic to Mr. Orban than anything else. Just seeing his photo makes me very angry and upset. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I don't see him at all. Hungarian citizens could finally arrange it in the elections. 😉✌️🤞 Thank you for the video. It's great. 💙💛
And the Hungarians are more than happy to oblige - and keep on voting for Orbán/Fidesz, and rightly so.
I lived in Berehove last year.
Its a nice town, but a Ukrainian told me if you want a job you have to leave the city.
Also an old Hungarian lady told my wife the CIA started Maidan.
What???
A couple of things...I would think they would have Ukrainian names/descriptions (smaller sized even) below the Hungarian ones just to get Ukrainian business, especially tourism.
Or do they do as most of Europe and have "English" available for tourists. Not doing so seems to be an economic penalty for them. If I was Ukrainian and had a choice, I would go to the business that caters to me enough to include Ukrainian names/descriptions.
Secondly, Beregovo only became Ukrainian because of the Soviets. Does Ukraine get much benefit from that area (economic mostly)? Does it give the area much support?
What does the local citizenry consider themselves? Ethnically Hungarian, I'm sure, but do they "feel" Ukrainian?
Then again, Belegovo could be used as a negotiating prize if something came up with Hungary and EU financing or NATO membership. Sometimes you have to grease the palms of those that have what you want.
But that depends on the Citizens of that area.
Thank you for the video. What didn't you like about your perm? It was a nice change. But I sent you suggestions for how you should have it styled...so you will still be considered stylish and cool!
Young lady, Ukraine is far to be the paradise of the minorities and this is the true! Please, do not make a sugar coating of the Ukranian wrong minority policy. Ukraine don't respect not just the Hungarians but the Romanians especially!
Ukraine kept the Basarabia an historic Romanian territory stolen by the USSR before the second World War and Ukraine is keeping it despite his territory is Romanian. Also in this area the Romanians was forced to integrate themselves in the "Great Ukranian social ethic mindset".
Young lady, Romania helps you, but honestly Ukraine do not deserve it because of the Ukranian behavior and clinical acting against my country!
Even the deepening of Bîstroe channel was made by the Ukraine without the permission of the Romanian government endangering the Danube Delta environment which is under the UNESCO protection.
So please let the suggar coating but Ukraine act in many ways as Russia and shame on you for this!
Hopefully now, when all Europe and the western world are helping Ukraine to understand the need of respect the minorities and to admit the historic trues as having illegal territories!
Is Ukraine claimes Crimea, Dombas and Luhansk as a legitimate request, also Ukraine should admite what territories are not belonging to it.
Can you give specific examples of disrespect for ethnic Romanians?
@@EugeniaFromUkraine , ruclips.net/video/vWroUrEaYQk/видео.html
@@nicucrainic8106 this is true about Romania too. they oppress minorities in the stolen lands, they should give back the lands to the rightful owner.
I dont know exactly the history of ukraine but its sure that the Crimea, Odessa, Volhina, Kárpatalja was never Ukrainian, and probably much more, maybe the majority of the lands.
We Hungarians dont understand why the thieves consider these lands as theirs. We would know that we just stole something and it is bad. We occupied Croatia for 800 years and we knew it was not really Hungary, we didnt care much about losing it, we gave them autonomy, an own parliament, etc.
But your methods really works, to assimilate brutally other people, deport, relocate, persecute, oppress, k'll people, ukrainianize and romanianize areas.
First of all, you have to take into account the state of war Ukraine is in, secondly, the accusation of arrogance and chauvinism fits much better with the Hungarian political class, irredentism and Orban's desire to change the current geopolitical order, to restore the great Hungary, resembles Putin's obsession with restoring the Tsarist empire or reviving the defunct USSR. As a separate fact, around the years 1840-1867, according to the Hungarian statistician Elek Fényes, the proportion of ethnic groups in "Great Hungary" was as follows: Hungarians - 4812759 - 37.36%, Slavs - 4330165 - 33.62%, Vlachs - 2202542 - 17.1%, Germans - 1273677 - 9.89%, Jews - 244035 - 1.89% and others 0.15%. This statistic shows that the Hungarian claims are absurd.
Romanian here! 🇷🇴
Do not worry Eugenia! Hungarians are accusing almost all their neighbours! They are always "oppressed". So pathetic!

I read the comments, it was not convenient on your part
1:50 Ви знущаєтесь? Навіщо Ви поширюєте ці наратив! Ніякого угорського населення там не має, там є пару сотень українців які взяли гроші на відкриття бізнесу за умови "записатися в документах угорцями".
Давайте поговоримо як 300 тисяч українців розчинилися в Угорщині більше сто років тому, коли Угорщина окупувала 170 тисяч км² України.
Які наративи? В офіційних джерелах написано що За переписом 2001 року, угорці складали близько 12% від населення всього регіону (приблизно 150 тисяч людей). Після 24 лютого 2022-го кількість етнічних угорців скоротилась, адже багато з них емігрувало до Угорщини. Але етнічні угорці все ще живуть на Закарпатті
@@EugeniaFromUkraine Де поділось 300 тисяч українців? За цей час їх мало стати 1 млн в районі тієї землі яку захопили угорці!
Які це угорці яким пропонували паспорт та гроші на їх бізнес.
Які це угорці коли українські діти змушені ходити в угорську школу.
Hungary out of European Union as soon as possible
I don’t think they are deserving this, I think Orban needs to resign and Hungarian people will elect someone more pro democratic:)
The language law is/was opresive, because it denies children education in their own language. The law was found wanted by the Venetian commission.
2017 educational law is/was a problem. Not only Hungary, but also other countries protested.
Warum sollten sie interdrückt werden?
As far as I saw people there are living peacefully and free Orban is saying they are oppressed
❤❤❤❤❤
Stay safe
Little Hungarian Town.
What about the chow?
I am sorry what is chow?
@@EugeniaFromUkraine the FOOD
Its like China Town.
There is basically one in every major city of the world.
Orban wants Ukraine to be a down town.
Facts of life but when he wants his deep fried ice cream or chicken feet, he'd best off line up and beg.
Your Mum hollered for a taxis?
Alright well “!!!
We have a bunch of laws that have been put in place in Québec to protect the language and our culture. Other provinces don't always seem to understand why these laws were put in place and sometimes we get called racists because we don't want to take english speaking immigrants. Never mind what Orban, you should protect your language and your culture. Even long after this war is over, you will have to keep on fighting for your culture. Keep your language alive, my friends!
@@X0verXDriveX okay, but situation is the exact reverse. Hungarians (and some other nations in this region) are not immigrants (well, not modern day immigrants), these minorities (in several cities even still majority) have been living there since the beginnings of time. The region belonged to the Kingdom of Hungary between 895 and 1920 and Hungarian was and still is the majority language and culture in large parts of that area. Hungarians do not have problem with Ukrainian immigrants there, but try to protect their right to use their language freely, even in schools. This has virtually nothing to do with Orban, but he of course uses this as a good argument for being Putin's puppet.
It was my land hundred or more years ago, I want it back mentality is wrong in this century. Old and useless. The new is cooperation regardless of nationality. Working together is makes us richer and stronger. Against like Putin’s Russia. But, there are leaders who are dividing us for ruling us.
Think of the Hungarian speaking areas in Ukraine as the French speaking area in Canada and you'll get it why Hungarians feel threatened by Ukrainian nationalism and language laws.
@@igorjee Canada has 2 official languages. French and english. Ukraine’s official language is Ukrainian. 🤷♂️
@@X0verXDriveX That's good. Now, imagine that Canada starts curtailing the linguistic rights of francophones. How would they react?
I know that you need to talk about that man he is not worth talking to he's not worth talking about because we already know that it's nobody being oppressed and I have heard Hungarian people talk about ukrainians and they say that they are not oppressed schools and everything in Ukraine so how they oppress Victor he is just a he just like putin that or brother that hates ukrainians
The language law is/was opresive, because it denies children education in their own language. The law was found wanted by the Venetian commission.😂😅
I have been my self in Ukraine ушгород and surounding villages and the ukrainians were very rude to me when they heard that i spoke hungarian with my family members. And i am an ethnic hungarian from slovakia so i know how rasist the slovaks are towards us and the same is in ukraine. Of course there are always good people too but the goverment of these countries are against hungarians. Also why is zelensky sending the ethnic hungarians to die in your ukraine war? Its not even their Business. Why is zelensky sending my people to the meat Grinder? And why do we need to help ukraine? You are not in the EU. You guys should just surrounder to end this proxy war which you can not win it only leads to more and more death people. People that die for nothing.
Maybe because ethnicity doesn't equate to citizenship, and that's why people fight, and many of them left on their own.
Ukraine will never be like Hungary,and Ukraine will never submit their land and people to tyrants.You should have'd learned that by now.Maybe you should surrender your house and family to the russians?
So if they all going to leave for Hungary I don’t see a problem here, to the contrary-problem solved! I met Ukrainian ppl here in the US, very very bad impression, it’s personal one… as far as Russia, if it will help Hungary regain our lost territory, I guess it’s worth it.
I wish you not to know such troubles in your territory, which you wish for us
@@EugeniaFromUkraine actually I do. I had to leave my homeland, Transylvania because you know those, lovely Romanian neighbors of yours. Same year, 1944, they ripped my homeland away from Hungary and gave it to Romania, same they did with Transcarpathya, so you know, what goes around comes around.
@@EugeniaFromUkrainehow much does the Ukrainen government pays you to state propaganda about "not oppressing" minorities?
Orban's claims will lead to the enclavation of these territories inhabited mostly by ethnic Hungarians, enclaves in which young people will no longer have the same chances and opportunities as other young people with Ukrainian citizenship, not knowing the majority language will be a handicap in getting a good job , or to the desire to occupy leading positions in state institutions, will mean blocking in a reduced space in the Hungarian community. The chances of progressing outside the country will be equal to the chances of any other foreign national who has left his homeland.
Hungary has had some bad luck for awhile,
🤡
And you have to ask a question to to the president of Hungary if they are so impressed why have they left and went back to hungry if the Hungarian people in Ukraine was so impressed why they haven't they left Ukraine Ukraine a long time ago
Give back Kárpatalja, and problem is solved. It is ancient Hungarian land. Not even Ukrainians stole it, but the Czechs, then the Russians, and they give it to Ukraine 73 years after WWI. Ukraine didnt even exist when it was already stolen. Ukraine illegally occupies it, its a fact.
