Minorities in Ukraine information


Map showing the proportion of non-Ukrainian minorities in Ukraine according to the 2001 census

Minorities in Ukraine are, according to Financial Times, the biggest potential obstacle to the start of negotiations for the accession of Ukraine to the European Union.[1] Large ethnic Russian (the largest ethnic minority in the country), Romanian (including Moldovans) and Hungarian minorities exist in Ukraine, and Romania and Hungary have striven for the minority rights of the minorities they respectively represent.[2] Prime Minister of Hungary Viktor Orbán has threatened to veto Ukraine's process of EU accession numerous times over minority rights issues.[1] Ukraine also has a small number of Poles, Jews, Armenians, Roma and other nationalities.[3]
