Stuck Between Ukraine and Hungary: Life in Transcarpathia
BEREHOVE, Ukraine – Dmytro Korbynskyi, a historian and social activist, moved from the cosmopolitan capital of Ukraine Kyiv to the small western town near the border with Hungary Berehove ten years ago. Berehove reminds Korbynskyi of Podil, a district in Kyiv where he grew up: it’s just as green, cozy and picturesque. However, recently Berehove has been making headlines for quite different reasons.
In late September, a scandal erupted when footage emerged of the local consulate distributing Hungarian passports in Berehove. The video showed the new Hungarian citizens, who were also Ukrainian citizens, singing the Hungarian anthem and taking an oath of allegiance to the state. Kyiv has since expelled the Hungarian consul from the town.
