Among the 11 demands of Hungary regarding the protection of the rights of national minorities, a key stumbling block is the designation of areas in Ukraine with a special level of guarantees for the rights of Hungarians. In particular, this refers to the country’s westernmost Zakarpattia Oblast, where, according to the 2001 census and previous years, the proportion of Hungarians was over 10%.
Depends what they mean by “traditionally” and its iimplications. Did it use to be Hungarian? Sure, at some point it was. So if by “traditionally” they mean “formerly”, fine. It’d be an interesting move if neighboring countries (Ukraine) agreed to this, provided that Hungary at the same time relinquished any claim on the same territory, and Orban got his tongue out of Putins ass.
After all, there are many territories that is “traditionally” part of a different country. Karelia, Königsberg, Northern Ireland, Tibet, Hawaii, just to name a few. But the world has (mostly) moved on out of pragmatism.

Pragmatism here mainly meaning not wanting to be murdered by an occupying white supremacist state.
