Even if 10 thousand Hungarians remain on the territory of the Transcarpathian region, Budapest will support and protect them, taking advantage of the weakness of Ukraine.

The head of the information and analytical center “Third Sector” Andrey Zolotarev said this at a press conference in Kyiv, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“The problem is not even that the Hungarians, as Klimkin said, leaving en masse. Even if there are 10 thousand Hungarians left in the Beregovo and Vinogradovsky districts of Transcarpathia, Orban and his party will actively promote this topic. “Sorting out relations with EU members Romania and Slovakia, where there are also large Hungarian communities, is much more difficult and problematic,” the expert said.
He also noted that Budapest has not yet gotten rid of the “phantom pains of Great Hungary,” which is natural for a country that previously had a population of 40 million versus 8 million today.
“The small Hungarian community in two districts of the Transcarpathian region will become exactly the point at which they will demonstrate the protection of the rights of the Hungarian minority. And no matter what small concessions are made in terms of the education law, Orban will continue this course, further creating big and small troubles for Ukraine. Moreover, we have enough such pain points, there is something to press on. We saw it around the Ukraine-NATO commission. This line will certainly be continued,” predicts Zolotarev.
