Ukraine and Hungary on Wednesday held online talks on reviving their strained relations, marking a further rapprochement between the neighbours since Hungarian Prime Minister Peter Magyar took office.
Kiev and Budapest were locked in a bitter diplomatic dispute during the tenure of Kremlin-friendly Viktor Orban, who consistently opposed Ukraine's EU membership and obstructed EU aid packages for the war-torn country.
He was ousted from power in parliamentary elections last month.
