Death threats in Ukrainian allegedly sent to Hungarian Foreign Minister ahead of future visit

Death threats were allegedly sent to the Embassy of Hungary in Ukraine targeting Peter Szijjarto, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Hungary, in connection with his upcoming visit to Uzhhorod. Source: European Pravda, citing Index. The publication, citing its own sources, reports that the letter was sent to the email of the Embassy of Hungary in Ukraine and was written in the Ukrainian language.

The author of the note expresses that Ukrainians harbour hatred towards the Hungarian government for allegedly working to ensure that Ukraine "loses in the war".

The note states that an "explosive reception" awaits Szijjarto on 29 January and advises preparations for a funeral. The message concludes with, "God forgives, but Ukrainians do not". Hungary's State Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Tamas Menczer stated on his Facebook account that the threat "does not deter Peter Szijjarto from representing Hungary's interests".

Quote: "The Polish Prime Minister attacks Hungary's position, which advocates for peace, with unacceptable statements, while the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Peter Szijjarto, receives death threats. Anyone who thinks that the minister of foreign affairs of Hungary will be frightened does not know Peter Szijjarto," Menczer wrote. Background:

The meeting of the ministries of foreign affairs of Ukraine and Hungary is scheduled for 29 January in Uzhhorod and aims to prepare for the meeting between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban.
Before this, Zelenskyy and Orban briefly crossed paths in Argentina during a visit to the inauguration ceremony of the newly elected president.

Orban then mentioned that he had accepted Zelensky's invitation to discuss bilateral issues but with the condition that the foreign ministers would prepare the meeting.
