The aid drive, dubbed Bridge for Transcarpathia, will focus on the 200,000 ethnic Hungarians whose homes are in the west of Ukraine, but will provide assistance to "everybody who is fleeing for their lives from Ukraine" as well as people who have remained in the country, Gulyás said.
The government will coordinate the "great will and intent to offer assistance" in the civil sphere, while also contributing state funding, he added.
Government spokesperson Alexandra Szentkirályi will coordinate the aid drive.
