The speaker recalled that today Russian dictator Vladimir Putin called on Western countries to stop providing military assistance to Ukraine if “they want the conflict to end.”
At the same time, Hungarian Foreign Minister Petr Szijjarto said that the supply of weapons to Ukraine allegedly “prolongs the war.” According to him, the international community should instead “concentrate on achieving peace.”
“Tango on the bones,” Nikolenko responded shortly.
Hungary’s position on the war in Ukraine
It should be noted that this is not the first time that Hungary has supported Russia in matters related to the war against Ukraine. In particular, Budapest continues to oppose anti-Russian sanctions, justifying this by saying that “they have no effect on the Russian Federation.”
Also, Hungarian officials several times called for the cessation of military assistance to Ukraine.
The country itself, being a member of the European Union and NATO, continues to conduct active trade with Russia and buys oil and other things from the aggressor state.
