Hungarian government’s website still shows support for Ukraine’s EU accession, Tisza Party points out
Change language:
The government is spending “tens of billions of taxpayers’ forints” to argue against Ukraine’s European Union entry, its website is “still full of posts suggesting vehement support” for Ukraine’s endeavours, the Tisza Party said in a statement on Wednesday.
In its statement, the opposition party reiterated its position concerning Ukraine’s possible EU integration: the issue should be put to an official referendum “when the criteria and date for the entry are public”.
Tisza leader Péter Magyar uploaded a video to his Facebook page with Prime Minister Viktor Orbán expressing support for Ukraine’s EU entry, while the statement quoted another post, with a photo of Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó, saying “Hungary supports Ukraine’s EU membership.”
