He attached a photo from 1939 to the post, Telex remarks. In 1939, the Polish regiment and Colonel Lajos Béldy met at the Vereckei Pass, on the historic Polish-Hungarian border.
Following Toroczkai’s post, the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry issued a statement calling on the Hungarian government to condemn the statement of MEP László Toroczkai on the revision of state borders as unacceptable, 444.hu reports.
“The call by Hungarian MP László Toroczkai for the revision of state borders is unacceptable. We call on the Hungarian government to condemn such irresponsible statements that undermine bilateral relations and do not correspond to the spirit of good neighborliness,” ukrinform.net translated Olag Nikolenko’s words from Ukrainian to English.
