YahooNEWS Hungary summons Ukraine envoy over building attack AFP AFPFebruary 27, 2018 "Extremist political views" are gaining ground in Ukraine and intimidating ethnic Hungarians, Hungary's Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said (AFP Photo/Tobias SCHWARZ) "Extremist political views" are gaining ground in Ukraine and intimidating ethnic Hungarians, Hungary's Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said "Extremist political views" are gaining ground in Ukraine and intimidating ethnic Hungarians, Hungary's Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said (AFP Photo/Tobias SCHWARZ) More Budapest (AFP) - Hungary said Tuesday it had summoned Kiev's envoy to warn against rising "extremism" after an ethnic-Hungarian cultural building in western Ukraine was attacked for the second time in a month.

The headquarters of an ethnic-Hungarian cultural association (KMKSZ) was set on fire overnight in Uzhhorod, capital of the Transcarpathia region, according to Hungarian news agency MTI.

Unidentified attackers threw a petrol bomb into the building which burnt out most of the ground floor, said MTI. No injuries were reported.

ing ground in Ukraine and intimidating ethnic Hungarians, Hungary's Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto told public television channel M1.

"All of this is unacceptable," said Szijjarto, adding that he had summoned Ukraine's ambassador in Budapest.

More than 100,000 ethnic Hungarians live in Transcarpathia, mostly in towns and villages close to the Hungarian border.

The attacks come as the two countries remain at odds over an education law passed by Kiev last September that Budapest says restricts the right of the Hungarian ethnic minority to learn in their native language.

It’s disgusting that US regime-changed in Kiev and force-fed a gov that is bought and paid for by western globalists. It’s not easy, knowing that the regime change manipulations of our gov and allies might bring about the end of civilization. One reason President Trump was elected was to get off the globalist express.

It’s now confirmed that the snipers used to kill many in Kiev acted at the behest of the “Euro-Maidan” leadership which the US (Vicky Nuland) used to violently overthrow the Ukrainian government.

That is one of the reasons he was elected. Thus far, the same people appear to be in control as before.
