There will be “rather dangerous proposals” on the agenda of an informal meeting of EU foreign ministers in Brussels on Thursday, Péter Szijjártó, the foreign minister, said in Budapest before departing to attend the event.
“The EU’s foreign policy chief, who is fortunately leaving his post soon, is behaving like a loose cannon and is making increasingly dangerous proposals (…) as regards both Ukraine and the Middle East,” he said, adding that those proposals “clearly carry the risk of escalation”.
Under Josep Borrell‘s proposals, members and ministers of the Israeli government should be put on an EU list of sanctions, which Szijjártó said “would make communication, talks and maintaining contact with an ally, Israel, difficult and would on the other hand send signals that would clearly endanger the security and long-term stability of the Middle East.”
“Borrell wants more weapons to be delivered to Ukraine and wants to allow an option for the Ukrainian armed forces to use western equipment already dispatched to that country when launching a strike against inner Russian territories,” the foreign minister said.
“We firmly oppose proposals we consider dangerous because they carry the risk of an escalation of the war in Ukraine,” he said, adding that Hungary would “represent a pro-peace position” at the upcoming meeting in Brussels.

Szijjarto promotes a “Pro-Russian” position and not a “Pro-Peace” position. These Fidesz puppets of Russia never make any demands on Russia to stop its’ bombing and to stop its’ invasion which is what they should be doing if they are actually “pro-peace.” These puppets of Russia go out of their way to buy Russian oil and gas to fund Putin’s military and go out of their way to prevent Ukraine from defending itself. ORBAN=PUTIN.

Lighten up Larry, pushing false narrative & out right lies doesn’t help the situation. Your statement is a convenient mirror of the rhetoric coming from Western European & North American politicians who have proven to the world to have an ulterior motive other than ending the war they allowed Ukraine to start in 2014. Your usual anti Orban/Fidesz chest thumping doesn’t hold much truth either.

Ukraine has been murdering Russian civilians since 2014, what do you think would happen if Mexico started killing American civilians? Wouldn’t the US step-up and defend their citizens?
It’s funny how the Democrats support the Neo-Nazis in Ukraine (Azov) and then demonize their own home-grown ones and claim them to be all Trump supporters.
Maybe it’s time the US and it’s warmongering allies stop supplying a corrupt and bankrupt country with intelligence, munitions and advisors/mercenaries.
What’s a viable alternative to Russian oil? Overpriced from the states? That’s a plan, let’s all depend upon Biden the senile; it’s a real safe bet and there is no corruption there … Biden/Harris = incompetence and corruption.

Funny how Mr. Szijjártó is characterizing virtually every EU Member foreign minister as a “loose cannon” …
Re Mr. Putin´s Russia´s “red lines” and the threat of escalation and war – Finland and Sweden´s accession do not appear to have had any of the threatened repercussions, nor have increased arms deliveries (F16s, longer range missiles included) or Ukraine´s taking of Russian territory and prompting the evacuation of 100s of thousands of civilians (as well as all kinds of facilities suddenly going “boom”, within Russia).
According to our Politicians, Ukraine “cannot win the war”, however it appears Russia could not stop Ukraine from taking Russian territory – or manage to expediently eject them. Let´s not alienate our NATO and EU friends in favour of far away ones, just yet?

Even the Soviet commissars had more democratic mandate and were operating with more transparency than these E.U. clowns. What an unfunny joke the E.U. has become…
As for Jose’s claim that Israel is “murdering thousands of children,” sure it’s not millions? Maybe even billions, or trillions!

@michaelsteiner – ah, the good old days! Let´s invite the Russians back. I am sure our Politicians would run a fine vassal state.
The EU is actually … Extremely transparent. However, it is a “club” with rules. And it pays to read the fine print. Speaking of billions – they did send us billions of euros to level us up. It´s all around you, in modern Hungary. Paid for by all those Net Contributor war mongers.

EU dictatorship is just as unacceptable as any other foreign dictatorship. The EU does not respect Hungary’s right of self-government. Hungarian laws should always be made by a Hungarian government and all laws should be pro-national. Hungarian government’s duty is to look after the welfare of Hungarians, not Ukrainians or uneducated criminal illegal aliens. The FIDESZ government is fulfilling its mandate so far. Well done.
