Yesterday in Uzhgorod, Hungary’s Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó met with his Ukrainian counterpart, Dmytro Kuleba. The meeting was largely designed to soothe tensions over the status of the Hungarian language in Zakarpattia and to prepare for a meeting of the leaders of Ukraine and Hungary, Zelenskiy and Prime Minister Viktor Orban. The foreign ministers agreed to hold a business forum of Hungarian and Ukrainian companies, “as soon as possible.” Kuleba said: “We want more trade, interpersonal, infrastructural and political contacts between Ukraine and Hungary.”
