Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban today called the European Union's sanctions against Russia "a step towards war."
Orban is intensifying his criticism of Brussels' strategy, which he considers dangerous.
"Anyone who intervenes economically in a military conflict is taking a position," Hungary's nationalist prime minister said in his traditional interview with pro-government radio.
"Little by little we are sliding towards war," noted Orban, concerned by the buildup of sanctions against Russia over its invasion of Ukraine.
The Hungarian prime minister regularly denounces European sanctions even if he voted for them along with his partners, blaming these measures for his country's economic difficulties.
Hungary's economy shrank in the third quarter of the year (compared to the second), and inflation is over 20 percent, even reaching 45 percent for food.
The Hungarian government has launched "national consultations" on the issue and put up posters around the country with the message: "Brussels sanctions are ruining us" against a picture of a missile.
Orban said he was ready to fight a possible new package of sanctions and ensure an exception was made for Hungary, which is heavily dependent on Russian fossil fuels.
The EU oil embargo against Russia does not apply to Hungary.
"Now we are supplying destructive weapons, training Ukrainian soldiers on our own territory, imposing sanctions on energy... We are becoming an integral part of the conflict," said Orban.
"They are not shooting at us yet, but we are on the verge of becoming a belligerent country. Europe is playing a very dangerous game," concluded the Hungarian Prime Minister.
Comments
between Biden's commenting, re:
NORDSTREAM II's projected discontinuance,
if it were to open,
and Trump, if he were to run again?
Dark Winter tillitaliations.
What Biden said about Trump.
Did anyone else recognize comparisons
between the two?
1.Biden and Nuland clearly stated that if Russia
invaded Ukraine, Nordstream 2 wouldn't be
allowed to continue.
Nordstream 2, at Biden's command, was
terminated.
2. Biden said if Trump were to decide to run again
It wouldn't be allowed.
We all think Biden is a pansy-ass
I do not think Biden is a pansy-ass
Rather, an evil scheming fully machevellian
Sub-human monster. Undoubtedly demon
Possessed, and under the control of another.
I don't think Biden is stupid, like he
presents himself.
$ 2.
I think the stupid is an effective act.
I think beneath the apparent geriatric
Clumsiness is a fully knowledgeable
Individual, effectively carrying out
a well planned agenda.
/nothing accidentally
Everything well-oiled and
pre-planned.
They use our sympathy as a weapon.
The more intelligent you are....the stickier this trap. As you look on a seemingly absurd situation.....you dig for reason that 'you are missing'.....where that does not exist.
Perhaps there's a cunning reason why Brandon can't form a sentence, shakes hands with non-existent people, wanders off-stage, and comes out of meetings wearing different suits than he arrived in (after shitting his pants)..
Meanwhile.....Occam's razor says : he has dementia.
Alzheimer's? Vascular dementia?
Who knows. The public is seemingly not 'entitled' to know what form of dementia the guy with the keys to the American nuclear arsenal is suffering from.
Can you list the benefits of your sanctions? Just curious.
Those who are making disparaging comments about him have either not been paying attention or are just too stupid to be allowed to breed.
Only now he is recognizing this fact??...effing imbecilic hypocrite
Canis, consider the criticism Orban has attracted from the EU and you will understand better.
Not you…….
