Viktor Orbán promises that Hungary will not be a party to any war.

– We are one step away from the West sending the military to Ukraine. This military whirlpool can drag Europe to the bottom. Brussels is playing with fire and angering God, the Hungarian prime minister declared.

The remarks were made during an election rally for Orbán’s Fidesz party, according to Hungarian broadcaster Hir TV.

–Today in Brussels there is a pro-war majority. The mood in Europe is bellicose. The logic of war dominates politics. I see preparations for war on the part of everyone and everywhere. NATO’s secretary-general has said he wants to set up a NATO mission in Ukraine. The European leaders are already involved in war, […] they see this war as their own war and are waging it as such, Orbán continued.

He pointed out that first it was about sending protective equipment, then about sanctions against Russia, then about sending weapons, first firearms, then tanks and airplanes, and financial support totaling about 100 billion euros.

Does not want to become a “toy of the great powers”

– But this money and these weapons do not make the situation better. In fact, it is getting worse. We are one step away from the West sending the military to Ukraine. This military whirlpool can drag Europe to the bottom. Brussels is playing with fire and angering God.

– We don’t want war, and we don’t want Hungary to become a toy of great powers again. That is why we must stand for peace, Orbán added, promising that the country would not enter the war.

French President Emmanuel Macron has previously said that the option of sending ground troops to Ukraine to take part in the fighting has not been ruled out. According to Russian intelligence, France was preparing such an operation as early as mid-March.
