Two-thirds of Hungarians reject financing Ukraine further until Hungary receives the EU funds owed to it, according to a survey by the Nézőpont Institute published on Friday.
Moreover, three-quarters reject handing over an additional 20 billion euros for weapons.
The survey of 1,000 adults from Nov 20 to 22 was conducted in connection with the latest National Consultation government survey.
Nézőpont noted that Brussels intended to hand over an additional 50 billion euros to Ukraine but the government refuses to assent until Hungary receives its EU funds.
And instead of extending 20 billion euros for weapons, the government would back initiatives promoting a ceasefire, the think-tank noted.
Fully 69 percent of respondents were against giving Ukraine additional financial support until Hungary’s EU funds are unfrozen, while 74 percent rejected the 20 billion euros for weapons.
Fully 95 percent of pro-government voters agreed with the government’s pro-peace stance while this was also true of 48 percent of leftist opposition voters.
Mi Hazánk voters were not keen on buying weapons for Ukraine, with 89 percent opposing this.

This proves that the FIDESZ government’s decision reflect the opinion of the population. Well done FIDESZ government.
@mariavontheresa these surveys were contracted by the neo-nazi party FIDESZ targeted at their voters, with biased questions.
instead of asking “do you think it’s fair for the EU to block funding for Hungary until the institutions are not tied to a political party”, they ask “do you agree with EU withholding funds for Hungary due to its pro-peace stance?”
which everyone except the brainwashed FIDESZ nazis and their militants know it’s not true – the EU is rightfully blocking funds because Hungary became an autocracy owned by Fidesz.
Now survey the rest of the EU and NATO on whether they still want Hungary as a member….
It does not matter who sponsors the survey, but the answer is important. Hungary is no longer a war monger nation. Only peace can guarantee the survival of Ukraine.
cliff arroyo, it seems you are ready to cede Hungary’s sovereignty, sovereignty that was hard won. It may be time for you to leave the country, if you happen to live there. Are you being employed to allow EU dictatorship of Hungary?
I can say the same about you, the tax I pay in this country is being used to fund people like you to spread lies and disinformation online.
Hungary agreed to follow the rules when it joined the EU in 2004. Now they cry when the EU is punishing them for not following the rules they agreed to back then.
Now, prove your statement. If no proof, then your statement is a lie. No, I do not get paid. However, I can appreciate sovereignty.
It is the right of the people of every nation to govern themselves. You may not agree with FIDESZ’s philosophy. Do your best in the next election to change the government.
It is amazing that people with different political philosophies are willing to cede sovereignty instead of helping the government to improve life of citizens. Many losers remind me of two-year-olds throwing a temper tantrum when they cannot have their way.
Love of country and patriotism should not stop when a different political party gains majority support.
