Magyar’s Ukraine Pivot Continues as Zelensky Visit Planned
Preparations are underway for the Ukrainian president to travel to Budapest following an agreement on the rights of ethnic Hungarians in Transcarpathia.

Preparations are underway for the Ukrainian president to travel to Budapest following an agreement on the rights of ethnic Hungarians in Transcarpathia.

Ukraine’s ambassador to Hungary, Sándor Fegyír confirmed that “Negotiations are underway regarding a visit to Budapest in the near future.”

A deal between Budapest and Kyiv on the rights of ethnic Hungarians in western Ukraine has cleared a key obstacle to the opening of the first negotiating cluster.

A potential deal with Budapest on minority rights may unlock Kyiv’s EU talks, but rising tensions with Warsaw over historical grievances could complicate unanimity.

The Hungarian PM’s efforts to replace what he sees as politically aligned office holders through constitutional engineering is doing exactly what Magyar claims to oppose.

President Tamás Sulyok has appealed to the Venice Commission, warning that efforts to remove him could undermine constitutional stability.

Hungary’s president has asked a key Council of Europe body to weigh in on a growing constitutional dispute with the country’s new liberal government.

Until Magyar transparently shares what he has committed to, this announcement is just another episode in the extended negotiations between Hungarian leaders and Brussels.

Former PM Orbán demanded that Magyar immediately publish the full details of what he called the “von der Leyen–Magyar pact”

A statement from the authorities in the Hungarian capital said will allow next month’s Pride march in Budapest, reversing a previous ban.
