We fought for our freedom. We built a Christian, family-oriented, and patriotic state. And now Zelensky (Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, – ed.) and the Brussels folks think we will back down? Don’t make me laugh,” Orban stressed.<\/p>\n Hungary-Ukraine Relations<\/p>\n It should be noted that Orban is basing his election campaign on attempts to create an enemy out of Ukraine. Despite the risks posed by such actions, the pro-Russian Hungarian Prime Minister is systematically escalating tensions with Kyiv.<\/p>\n Anti-Ukrainian and anti-European propaganda has unfolded in Hungary. It is known that Orban is being assisted by the Kremlin. In particular, Kremlin intelligence suggested staging an assassination attempt on Orban.<\/p>\n Furthermore, the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry reacted sharply to a series of anti-Ukrainian actions by Hungary. Orban was warned about the dangers posed by his actions.<\/p>\n Orban and the Loan for Ukraine<\/p>\n Recall that Hungary continues to block the provision of a loan to Ukraine from the EU. Recently, Orban stated that he would not lift the veto until Ukraine resumes supplies of Russian oil.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n EU members are outraged by Orban’s behavior. For instance, Sweden has openly stated its readiness to consider Article 7 of the EU Treaty – a mechanism to deprive Hungary of its voting rights.<\/p>\n Additionally, the President of the European Council, Antonio Costa, called the behavior of the Hungarian Prime Minister “unacceptable.” However, despite the criticism, there are those who came to Orban’s defense.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Orban is at it again: both the President of Ukraine and the EU took a hit Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban compared the current “resistance to the pressure from Ukraine and Brussels” to the overthrow of communist rule in Hungary.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":64571,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"magazine_newspaper_sidebar_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[65],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-64868","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-society-en"],"yoast_head":"\n
