Hungary and Ukraine have signed an agreement on opening a new border crossing point between Nagyhodos in Hungary and Velyka Palad (Nagypalád) in Ukraine, the foreign minister said on Wednesday.
The new crossing station will be the sixth between the two countries, Péter Szijjártó said on Facebook.
The minister noted his phone talks last month with Andriy Yermak, head of the Ukrainian president’s office, that led to the agreement on the new border crossing as well as an agreement to allow cross-border freight traffic at Beregsurány.
The agreement on the Nagyhodos-Velyka Palad crossing point was signed this week by Oleksandr Kubrakov, Ukraine’s infrastructure minister, and Hungary’s ambassador to Kyiv, Szijjártó said.
