Hungary returns a seized cash and gold shipment worth $82 million to Ukraine
BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) — A shipment of Ukrainian cash and gold worth around $82 million that Hungary seized earlier this year has been returned to Ukraine's state Oschadbank, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Wednesday.
The seizure of the valuables, which were being transported through Hungary by two armored cars when Hungarian counter-terrorism authorities detained them on March 5, caused outrage in Ukraine, where officials accused Hungary's pro-Russian government of acting illegally, and of using the seizure as a tool in Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s anti-Ukraine election campaign.
The neighboring countries had already been in a bitter feud over Hungary’s access to Russian oil through a pipeline that crosses Ukrainian territory.
But on Wednesday, Zelenskyy wrote on social media that the return of the valuables represented “an important step in relations with Hungary” after Orbán was defeated in a landslide election last month that has raised hopes the incoming government will pursue a less antagonistic policy toward Kyiv.
