War portends lasting change for communities with large Hungarian populations

– and new hardships. People interviewed by The Globe and Mail described state security questioning them over social media posts deemed to contain “separatist” content.

The Globe is not identifying some of the people interviewed for this article to protect them from reprisals. “There are no persecutions based on ethnicity for statements and posts in social media. What we really have, and it is applied to everyone without any exceptions, is that we are very watchful.”

But when the war broke out, many Hungarians fled, including men who swam across the border to Hungary to avoid conscription. Viktor has similarly had Ukrainian people complain about the use of Hungarian. The best rebuttal, he said, is the local cemetery: “Before 1945, you would not find a single headstone with a Ukrainian name on it.”
