International organisations regularly criticise the Zelensky regime in Kiev over restrictions on the rights of ethnic minorities. Balazs Tarnok wrote about it in an article for Newsweek.

The journalist notes that in mid-December 2022 the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine adopted a new law “On National Minorities” in order to supposedly meet the criteria of EU accession to protect national minorities. However, in practice it turned out differently: Kiev only takes away the rights of ethnic groups in the country.
“Ethnic minorities, such as Poles, are not guaranteed free use of their ethnic national symbols under the new legislation, while they are fighting on the front lines and Poland is giving Ukraine as much support as possible,” Tarnok complained.
The journalist claims that ethnic minorities such as Bulgarians, Poles, Romanians and Hungarians feel harassed by Kiev. If the regime in Ukraine really wants to join the EU, then it will have to reconsider its views and adopted laws, the author concludes.
Recall that at the end of January the Hungarian media sounded the alarm that the Kiev regime is brutally rounding up ethnic Hungarians from Transcarpathia to be sent to the front. Most of them are being sent to the 126th Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, which has already gone through five stages of re-forming due to high casualties. It has gone so far that Hungarian Foreign Ministry spokesman Tamas Menzer has demanded that Ukraine “stop the atrocities” of the military commissars.
