Resorts of Ukraine on the Black Sea. Expert: Hungary uses the Ukrainian card before the elections to the European Parliament
The Black Sea is a unique water area of Ukraine and neighboring countries, which has not only strategic importance, but it is also a great place for holidays and vacations for many Ukrainians.
First, some facts
No matter how strange it may sound, but the Black Sea is part of Atlantic Ocean, namely its internal basin. It is connected with other seas and water areas by straits: the Bosphorus connects it with Sea of Marmara, Dardanelles - with the Aegean and Mediterranean, Kerch - with Azov. The area of the water surface is more than 420,000 square kilometers. The greatest recorded depth is 2210 meters. One has only to think about it, because it is more than two kilometers! But scientists have fully studied the depths and did not find life in them at more than 200 meters, since these water layers are very saturated with hydrogen sulfide, which is not compatible with living beings.
The Black Sea not only washes the territory of Ukraine, but also such countries as Romania, Bulgaria, Russia, Turkey, Georgia and Abkhazia. The Black Sea helps the economy of all these countries, because it is trade route, on which local and international ships regularly ply. They carry a variety of goods - food, metallurgy, textiles and much more, without which it is difficult to imagine life in the country. Also, military bases are located on the Black Sea coast: Ukraine - in Odessa, Russia - in Sevastopol and Novorossiysk, Turkey - in Sinop and Samsun, Bulgaria - in Varna, Georgia - in Poti and Batumi, Romania - in Constanta and Mangalia.
History of the Black Sea
The first name of the sea was "Pont Aksinsky", which was translated from ancient Greek as "Inhospitable Sea". There are legends that such a name was not chosen by chance - sailors often encountered navigation problems here, and also hostile and warlike tribes settled on the shores of Pontus Aksinsky.
When the Greek colonists nevertheless settled on its shores, the name was changed to Pont Euxinus - "Hospitable Sea". around him modern name scientific and historical discussions still arise, various hypotheses and theories are put forward.
One of them is based on the fact that Asian countries the cult of flowers was central, where all parts of the world were designated by one or another color scheme. So the black color answered the north. Therefore, the Black Sea is northern.
Another hypothesis was that the anchors and other metal objects lowered to the bottom were covered with a black coating. All this was due to exposure to hydrogen sulfide, but the sea got its name - Black.
Black Sea in art
It has repeatedly inspired famous artists of different eras to create their masterpieces. For example, Ivan Aivazovsky depicted him in most of his paintings: calm and storm, sunsets and sunrises, quiet coves and wild beaches.
In cinema, the Black Sea has been depicted in many historically significant films. former USSR shot at the Odessa and Yalta film studios. “Scarlet Sails”, “Amphibian Man”, “Ivan Vasilyevich Changes His Profession”, “Assa”, “Diamond Hand”, “Battleship Potemkin” - in all these paintings one can find familiar and such native landscapes.
Writers also did not bypass this topic. Bulgakov, Kataev, Paustovsky, Utyosov and many others described the sea itself and the coast with the most unexpected and beautiful combinations.

12:16 — REGNUM Head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Pavel Klimkin it will not be possible to unblock the work of the Ukraine-NATO commission after a meeting with the Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto in Warsaw. This was announced on October 24 on the air of one of the Ukrainian TV channels by a political scientist Dmitry Tuzhansky.
“The meeting in Warsaw between Pavel Klimkin and Peter Szijjarto will be the third in recent months. This is another attempt to slightly improve Ukrainian-Hungarian relations. I would not expect a serious breakthrough, because Budapest is unlikely to unblock the work of the Ukraine-NATO commission after this meeting. There are several small, other issues on the agenda that need to be addressed in order to create a superstructure of positive decisions,” Tuzhansky said.
He said that already this week, Budapest, at the request of Kyiv, will change the title of the position of the authorized minister of Hungary for Transcarpathia. Istvan Grezi.
“Projects are also on the agenda economic cooperation. We are talking about a project that should be implemented by the scandalous commissioner of Hungary for the development of Transcarpathia. Now the position occupied by Istvan Greza should be renamed. Budapest said he was ready to rename the position, but with the preservation of functions. There is no problem here, the preservation of functions is normal, because we are talking about cross-border cooperation projects and the development of Hungarian out-of-school institutions for the Hungarian national minority in Ukraine. The issue of renaming the position is technical... According to my information, this should happen this week, ” Tuzhansky said.
The expert explained that Hungarian politicians are using the Ukrainian issue and the so-called anti-Hungarian campaign in Transcarpathia in the midst of elections to the European Parliament.
“In Hungary, the Ukrainian question is getting stronger. It may be one of the irritating issues of the election campaign in Hungary in the structures of the European Parliament. Elections to the European Parliament have started in Hungary… The “Ukrainian card” may be played there, and Szijjarto’s statements are just in this vein… In Hungary, they constantly say that an anti-Hungarian campaign is underway in Ukraine, I don’t see this campaign. It is important that Klimkin assure that there is no anti-Hungarian campaign in Ukraine,” Tuzhansky added.
He also believes that Klimkin and Szijjarto will condemn the placement of scandalous billboards in Transcarpathia.
“Both sides will condemn. Unfortunately, there were so many such provocations that they will soon forget about it, it is unlikely that anyone will be found who actually posted and ordered these boards. Fortunately, due to the frequent provocations of local population got some kind of immunity. I would not exaggerate the importance of these boards. Of course, this is a provocation, it must be condemned. The parties should discuss this situation, because it is not in the interests of either Kyiv or Budapest. Neither Kyiv nor Budapest, of course, are behind the placement of these boards,” Tuzhansky summed up.
As reported IA REGNUM, October 23-24 Ukrainian Foreign Minister Pavlo Klimkin is on a working visit to Poland. In particular, the Ukrainian delegation headed by Klimkin takes part in the Warsaw Security Forum. A meeting of the head of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry with the head of the Hungarian Foreign Ministry, Peter Szijjarto, is also planned.
Recall that on the night of October 20, billboards appeared in Transcarpathia with the inscription “Stop the separatists” under photographs of the leaders of the Hungarian national minority in the region. In particular, Vasily Brenzovich, deputy from the Petro Poroshenko Bloc faction, Iosif Borto, leader of the Hungarian KMKS party, deputy chairman of the Transcarpathian Regional Council, rector of the Hungarian Institute named after. F. Rakoczy in Berehove Ildika Oros.
October 21 head of Transcarpathia Gennady Moskal stated that billboards about separatism are "a provocation of the FSB of Russia."
