The Minister of foreign Affairs of Hungary added that the explanation of the Ministry of defense of Ukraine about the fact that this step is necessary because of the threat to the territorial integrity of the country, is even more worrisome.

“This means that they believe the Hungarian national community as a threat to Kiev, which is outrageous and this is why Hungary categorically rejects that,” said Szijjártó.
