In Budapest they explained why Poroshenko is inciting discord with Hungary
Petro Poroshenko’s headquarters is deliberately fanning discord with Hungary, announcing the threat of seizing Transcarpathia in order to mobilize the nationalist electorate and ensure the current president of Ukraine is re-elected for a second term.
Representatives of Hungary and Ukraine came to this opinion on the Rossiya-1 TV channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“This conflict must be looked at from the point of view of elections. This is part of the election campaign. After 2014, nationalism was inflated in Ukraine, the current government is a hostage to the nationalists, so Poroshenko has no other way. Before this, Russia and Donbass were the enemy, now they are making an enemy out of Hungary in order to revive the “Crimea effect,” because without this Poroshenko cannot win the elections,” Hungarian journalist Gabor Stier said during a live broadcast from Budapest.
Former Verkhovna Rada deputy Elena Bondarenko agreed with the Hungarian guest of the studio.
“Despite the problems with the Hungarians, in Ukraine there are problems with the Ukrainians themselves. The rights of ordinary people are being violated everywhere. When we divide people by nationality, this is the problem of any discord, we are not together. If you look at what the Ukrainian regime is doing, yes, it is trying to build a monoethnic nation through knee-jerk pain, lawlessness, lawlessness and murder,” Bondarenko noted.
As PolitNavigator reported, Ukrainian nationalist writer Larisa Nitsoi previously stated that Hungary had long been preparing a " stab in the back " against Ukraine.
