More than 11,000 Ukrainian children had the chance to spend their holidays in Hungary since the start of the war two and a half years ago, primarily thanks to charity organisations, the state secretary in charge of church and ethnic minority relations said on Wednesday.
Miklós Soltész, who is also the head of the National Humanitarian Coordination Council, visited a camp in Gyenesdiás, on Lake Balaton, organised for Ukrainian children who lost parents during the war. He said that a total of 11,400 children had spent holidays in Hungary, including over 4,000 this year.
Hungary has gone above and beyond to help those who suffered from the war but instead of providing support with weapons, ammunition and soldiers, “it has been using all means to work towards establishing peace”, Soltész said.
