Europe? It is already at war with Ukraine, albeit not formally. It is the key message of Viktor Orbán’s annual speech to the nation delivered today, in which the Hungarian prime minister once again attacked the other western bloc countries and highlighted all his accolades. «If some members of NATO or a group of them want to perform Acts of war outside the territories of the Member States, they have to do it outside of NATO,” Orbán said. “When you supply weapons and satellite information needed for military operations, when you train the soldiers of a belligerent side, when you finance the entire state machine and impose sanctions on the other side, then whatever you say, you are at warfor now an indirect war”. A useful observation for the Budapest Prime Minister to contextualize his country’s “diversity”. “Hungary is the only country that is for peace. This is not our war, we have to stay out of itWe call for an immediate ceasefire.” Relations with Russia are too important for Budapest, Orbán admits: “It’s an important partner for energy, so we have to talk, maintain relations with Moscow».
The Hungarian prime minister then began a “Berlusconian” investigation into the causes of the war. “The West could have guaranteed that Ukraine would not join NATO, but it did the opposite,” Orbán said. Then the new attack on the European Union’s response to Russian aggression for almost a year. «Sanctions are the weapons of Brussels’ war policy‘ the Hungarian prime minister stressed, according to which these were ‘directed against Russia but hit Europe’ without ending the war. “A year has passed” since the first restrictive measures were taken against Moscow, and “the end of the war is not near, on the contrary moves away» concluded Orbán pessimistically.
