PM Orban's policy chief stressed that Russia remains capable of financing its war expenditures despite the EU sanctions. “Hungary maintains that this kind of sanctions policy makes no sense,” he stated. Regarding the idea of cutting the EU off from Russian energy, he warned that if such a move were to happen, the decline in the EU’s competitiveness would be even faster than in the past three and a half years since the war began. “Hungary will oppose such a measure with every tool at its disposal,” he emphasized.
We will protest, because we cannot allow Hungary and the Hungarian people to pay the price for a war that has nothing to do with us — and one that brings us no closer to ending any conflict.
– he stated. Regarding Ukraine’s proposed EU membership, Mr. Orban said that the move aims primarily to make it easier to transfer funds to Ukraine.
In our view, this is not something that's not good for Europe as a whole, neither for the Hungarian people, therefore we oppose this approach,
– Prime Minister Orban’s political director concluded.
