VIDEO: Hungarian government no longer considers Crimea as part of Ukraine
The Hungarian government shared a video on Youtube on 30 May promoting the importance of a ceasefire and peace as soon as possible in Ukraine. The video depicts Ukraine without Crimea, even though retaking the peninsula is one of the aims of Kyiv. Furthermore, the Orbán administration does not say how they want ceasefire and peace without further territorial losses.
The Hungarian government says in the video’s explanation that the war only brings devastation and the death of hundreds of thousands of people. They added that nobody could win. Therefore, ceasefire and peace negotiations are needed as soon as possible.
The narrator of the Hungarian government’s official pro-peace video says that tens of millions of people had to leave their homeland due to the war. Even so, the armed conflict continues and can escalate into a global war. The video talks continuously about war instead of at least mentioning that Russia attacked Ukraine, not the other way around.
“Enough of the war!”, the 29-second-long footage concludes. Therefore, it suggests a ceasefire and the beginning of peace negotiations because that is the only way to save lives. The final photo is from the papal visit in Budapest, where Pope Francis talked about the importance of peace in Ukraine.
NATO member Hungary no longer considers Crimea part of Ukraine
Interestingly, the video shows Ukraine without Crimea but with the Eastern regions occupied by the Russian invasion forces (see our featured image). Crimea has been under Russian occupation since 2014, and, officially, the European Union does not acknowledge the territorial gain of Moscow. Only countries like Afghanistan, North Korea, Sudan and Syria accept that.
The Hungarian government regularly says how important Ukraine’s territorial integrity is. PM Orbán said last December that Ukraine could only remain independent and sovereign if its territorial integrity remains. Despite that, they showed Ukraine without Crimea in their latest video, 444.hu wrote.
The Zelenskyy regime would like to get back the peninsula. Moreover, Ben Wallace, the secretary of the British defence ministry, said in an interview yesterday that he sees a realistic opportunity for Ukraine to regain Crimea. Meanwhile, Russia banned all maps depicting Crimea as part of Ukraine in January.
The government’s video suggests that Russia and the USA should negotiate peace instead of Ukraine and Russia. Orbán’s political director, Balázs Orbán (the similar name is just a coincidence, they are not related), said the current conflict is an American-Russian war. Below, you may check out the full video:

Orban is only carrying out the wishes of his master, Putin.
Hello Attila! If I may assume,having seen your name,your parents wished to bestow upon their son a powerful Hungarian(Hun) lineage/heritage. They must have dreamed of their son becoming Attila-like… Then, having read your comment, I concluded, you must be one of the ardent supporters the likes of Gergely Karacson, Gyurcsan, and the rest…Sad.
FYI.
Viktor Orbán is highly respected,admired,envied, (feared by the woke West), Leader of Courage and Integrity.
@Mayora, are you sure Orban is admired in the West? for sure is feared as he is a hole in the West and unreliable
