Hungary's incoming prime minister Peter Magyar on Tuesday offered to meet Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to "open a new chapter in bilateral relations" and address a long-running feud over the rights of Ukraine's ethnic Hungarians.

Relations between the two neighbours hit rock bottom before Hungary's April 12 election that saw Magyar beat long-time nationalist premier Viktor Orban.
