Ukraine blacklists Balázs Hidvéghi and Milos Kerkez
Published
Ukraine has placed Balázs Hidvéghi, a member of the Hungarian National Assembly, and Milos Kerkez, a Hungarian football player, on its blacklist. The blacklist contains persons whom Ukraine does not allow to enter the country. The report does not include a detailed justification, so the exact reasons are not yet known.
Balázs Hidvéghi is a politician of Fidesz and a member of the Hungarian parliament. Milos Kerkez is a player for the Hungarian national football team, who plays in the English Premier League in Europe. The two names were placed on the list together, but the source does not describe which events the measure is linked to.
The case is noteworthy because it affects Hungarian public figures. Relations between Ukraine and Hungary have been strained in recent times due to several contentious issues, particularly concerning the war and minority rights. In such situations, being placed on a blacklist is often tied to political or security decisions, but the available information does not confirm the specific reasons behind this one.
In the coming period, those affected or the Hungarian government may respond to the measure. For now, there is no official explanation, and official sources may provide information on further developments.
