Orban said in an interview that the war in Ukraine could end if the United States stopped its arms shipments. In doing so, according to Kiev, he shows a “pathological contempt for Ukraine and for the Ukrainian people who are fighting against Russian aggression”. With the statements Orban brought about a Ukrainian defeat, it still sounds, even if it would further strengthen the Russian aggression against Hungary. “The Hungarian leader should ask himself if he wants peace.”
Relations between Kiev and Budapest have been tense for some time. For example, Orban has already tried several times to block European sanctions against Russia. He was also spotted last month with a scarf on which a map of Hungary was depicted, including a piece of Ukrainian territory. There was already a conflict about the Hungarian minority in Ukraine.
The Hungarian leader still maintains ties with Russian President Vladimir Putin. The country remains heavily dependent on Russia, especially for gas supplies.
