Hungarian foreign minister: Europe has a pro-war, liberal elite

Europe’s pro-war, liberal elite will do everything in its power to prevent a peace agreement to end the Ukraine war, which is now closer than ever, the foreign minister told Médiacentrum Debrecen.

Péter Szijjártó said in an interview with a local television programme late on Friday that a US-Russia agreement was needed for the Ukraine war to end. He added that this had not been possible earlier because the previous, pro-war administration of the US did not want to end the conflict but continually “added fuel to the fire”.

“Currently there is a pro-peace US president and US administration, so there is a chance to end the war,” Szijjártó said. The foreign minister welcomed the fact that there had been talks between the [American and Russian] presidents over the phone, and also welcomed that preparatory talks for a personal meeting would be held on various levels.

He said the chance for making peace “has never been this close”, adding however that the process “will not be easy and would not happen overnight, either”. Szijjártó said he expected that Donald Trump, being a strong president, would be able to reach a deal with the Russian president and no matter what the European liberal leaders and Brussels bureaucrats do, the agreement will be signed.

Europe might be left out from peace talks

At the same time, he said it was a problem that Europe was “again going against realities, and the liberal European leaders are simply unwilling and unable to understand that what they are doing is now out of season, and it would be best if they stopped, because they are only digging deeper and causing greater damage”.

“Practically what happens is that a European security challenge will be closed in a way that Europe will not get a word in it,” he said. “This is where Europe and the European Union has been taken by the Commission under the leadership of [ Ursula] von der Leyen, and the liberal leaders who were trying to play a game of war in Europe over the last years, and they considered a war that no European country has anything to do with except Ukraine as their own,” Szijjártó said.

  1. It’s disgusting Fidesz propaganda to say that the EU is “pro-war”. The EU did not launch any war. Russia invaded Ukraine. Putin has no intention of stopping so what can anyone do except defend themselves. Hungary is pro-Putin, pro-Russia, pro-Russian War. Szijarto, Orban and the rest of the Russian ass lickers can go to Hell.

    • Orban fought the Russian invasion and influence in his youth. You did not.

      And it is a matter of public record that various European “leaders” actively worked to prevent negotiations, let alone a settlement, between Russia and Ukraine, even overruling Zelensky himself.

      Ukraine is one big, honking washing machine as well as an excuse to screw up ordinary people’s lives even further.

      • Orban has never fought Russian invasion.

        He was liberal funded by Soros in his youth and demanded freedom and democracy from Sovjet dictator. He held speeches – good ones. And still does, still being able to convinnce voters, unfortunately.

        Now he rules likes by decree, has been doing it for many years, just like a Sovjet Dictator.
        And he will do and say anything to stay in power.

        He is not the same man he used to be. He and Fidesz need to be replaced. New leadership is needed.
