Hungary lifted the ban on Ukrainian media imposed under Viktor Orbán
The Hungarian authorities have lifted the ban on Ukrainian media that was imposed under Viktor Orbán. This was announced by the Minister of Social Relations and Culture of Hungary, Zoltán Tarr.
According to him, the decision to unblock Ukrainian media was made jointly with the country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Tarr recalled that the ban on Ukrainian publications was introduced in 2025 in response to Ukraine's decision to restrict the activities of certain Hungarian media.
“One cannot confuse media spreading Russian propaganda with genuine, independent press either in Hungary or internationally. The ousted government constantly worked to dig trenches, and blocking these publications had no other purpose,” the minister said.
According to him, the current government is focusing on improving good neighborly relations, which should also positively affect the situation of the Hungarian community outside the country.
“Our task is to establish good neighborly relations that will contribute to improving the situation of Hungarians abroad – this is a common national cause. Moving along this path, thanks to our previous historic agreement, we have achieved more in a few weeks than the ousted government did in 16 years,” Tarr added.
