Minister of State for Economic Diplomacy Levente Magyar received Chairman of the Transcarpathia Regional Council Volodimir Chubirko and President of the Cultural Alliance of Hungarians László Brenzovich in his office.
At the discussion Mr. Magyar declared that the Hungarian government is committed to the joint development of foreign trade relations between Ukraine and Hungary especially in the fields of transportation and water management.
Mr. Magyar emphasized that a strong Ukraine is of prior importance for Hungary.
The closer physical interconnection between Hungary and Transcarpathia is a common economic interest of both countries. Therefore we plan to open several new border crossing points, the first one being the one between Nagyhódos and Nagypalád (Velika Palagy), the Minister of State said.
