Hungary has agreed to change the title of the post of the Commissioner for Transcarpathia

This was stated by the Minister for Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Pavlo Klimkin after a meeting with his Hungarian counterpart in New York City.

– We were talking for a long time about the post of the Hungarian government commissioner. They confirmed their intention to change this title, – Klimkin said. The minister also stressed that the indroduction of the post of the Commissioner for Transcarpathia was a "deliberate provocation."

– I said that we can not (agree) with this title, because we regard it as a deliberate provocation. And, of course, we will keep on working, – Pavlo Klimkin added.

As you know, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs summoned the Hungarian diplomat to demand an official explanation of the decision of Hungary to introduce the post of the Minister’s Commissioner in charge of the development of Transcarpathian region and the program for the development of kindergartens in the Carpathian Basin, since the competence of the Commissioner includes part of the sovereign territory of Ukraine.

In turn, István Grezsa said that the information about the Hungarian Ministry for Transcarpathia was absurd.
