Ukraine, which speaks of a “promotion of revisionist ideas“, will summon the Hungarian ambassador in kyiv, to inform him that “Viktor Orban’s action is unacceptable“, according to a spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
“We expect an official apology from the Hungarian side and a refutation of the attacks on the territorial integrity of Ukraine“, he added.
On Monday, the Romanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs also expressed its disapproval of a “revisionist gesture“, “ once morest the grain of reality“.
Since his return to power in 2010, Viktor Orban has regularly questioned the legitimacy of the Treaty of Trianon, signed between Hungary and the winners of the First World War.
Initialed in 1920 by the Hungarian delegation, then ratified by the Hungarian Parliament and by the regent of Hungary, it offered independence to peoples previously dominated by Budapest and the Austro-Hungarian monarchy.
Three million Hungarian speakers have become minorities abroad.
