There is no suppression of the rights of the Hungarian national community in Ukraine—this issue has been regulated by the State and implemented in practice. This was reported on Facebook by the head of the Berehove city territorial community, Zoltan Babyak, following a meeting with the newly elected Hungarian Prime Minister Peter Magyar, UNN reports.

As Babyak noted, systematic work and dialogue at all levels regarding specific issues of the Hungarian community's life that require resolution are ongoing. He added that President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy is personally overseeing these matters.
In particular, according to the head of the Berehove city territorial community, significant resources have already been invested in rebuilding infrastructure in those communities of Zakarpattia where Hungarians live. At the same time, education and culture are funded from the state and local budgets. This makes it possible to provide all educational services provided for by current legislation, including for the Hungarian national community, Babyak noted.
Representatives of the Hungarian national community hold leadership positions in state authorities and local self-government. At the legislative level, Ukraine has adopted important decisions that now ensure the rights of Ukrainian Hungarians in education, culture, daily life, and other spheres of community activity,
