Zelensky: Hungary’s prime minister is almost the only one in Europe to openly support Putin
–
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has repeatedly criticized Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban for favoring Moscow over Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, saying Orban is almost the only one in Europe to openly support Russian President Vladimir Putin.
–
“I want to turn to another person who does not quite understand what is happening. (..) Not only in Ukraine, but throughout Europe. To the Hungarian Prime Minister, who is almost the only one in Europe who openly supports Putin. We have not even received what everyone else is doing, doing it for peace. We have not seen any effort to stop the war! Why? Zelensky said in a video speech recorded Saturday night.
–
He noted that Hungary had not allowed Ukraine to provide military assistance in transit through its territory and that Ukraine did not see Hungary’s moral leadership.
–
“The whole of Europe wants peace. The whole of Europe does not want the battlefield to be moved from Mariupol to Budapest or from Kharkiv to Krakow, or from Chernihiv to Vilnius. All of Europe is trying to stop the war, to bring peace back. Why is official Budapest the whole of Europe, against all civilized nations? How good? ” said the President of Ukraine.
–
He added that Orban had probably lost his honesty “somewhere in contact with Moscow”.
–
It has already been reported that Zelensky has previously criticized Orban for his attitude to Russia’s attack on Ukraine.

Hungary will hold parliamentary elections on Sunday, in which Orban will fight for a fourth term as head of government, but this time the fight will be fierce as he will be opposed by a united opposition alliance.
