In his speech, he mentioned it was once unacceptable that Ukraine has been systematically and often dismantling the rights of nationwide minorities since 2014, and that a number of destructive regulations had been followed on this space, making it unattainable for nationwide minority tutorial establishments to proceed running of their present shape from September.
In addition, school-leaving examinations, admissions, and vocational coaching within the nationwide minorities’ languages might be abolished, and quite a lot of Hungarian faculty administrators and lecturers had been fired, he mentioned.

that may give households who join their kids in Ukrainian-language schooling as an alternative of ethnic minority schooling a sum of round 1,000 euros, which is “a serious step towards the elimination of a minority”.
Szijjártó identified that with a purpose to finance this unacceptable plan, Ukraine needs to make use of the billions of euros it receives from the European Union. He expressed the hope that the Kiev parliament would now not undertake the proposal.
