Foreign minister: Government does not allow Hungary to be ‘sucked into NATO’s war madness’
Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó said after an informal meeting of NATO foreign ministers in Prague on Friday that “some statements showing a total lack of sober judgment” had been made but the government will not allow Hungary “to be sucked into NATO’s war madness”.
The ministry cited Szijjártó telling a press conference that “the war express has pulled out of the penultimate station” and it is questionable if there was still a chance to stop it.
“I think there is only one emergency brake left that we can rely on, which is the June 9 EP election, in which ballot European people, among them Hungarian voters, can make it clear for their governments that they do not want to live in war in Europe in the long term,” he said.
Szijjártó said the atmosphere of the meeting had been “as if we were in the last phases of preparation for war”.
He said several “dangerous proposals” had been made, for instance, that the Ukrainian army could aim the US weapons at Russian targets, and Western experts would be dispatched to Ukraine to train soldiers.
“We believe that with all these proposals and ideas, NATO will make more, and increasingly large steps in the direction of getting involved in the war, whereas two and a half years ago we decided together that NATO must not be part of the war,” he said.

“You might not be interested in war but war may be interested in you.” To repeat what has been said Russia launched this war and is responsible for it. Every country has the right to defend itself and it is the moral obligation of neighbouring countries to assist Ukraine in its’ defence. Hungary would expect no less if it was attacked. It is disgusting moral cowardice (coupled with Russian blood money payoffs) that Fidesz asks Hungarians to engage in to turn their backs away from neighbour Ukraine.
Young Hungarian men will NOT go to die in Ukraine and be replaced with third-world invaders. NO NO NO! If the globalist-socialists want to fight Russia so bad, they can send the millions of illegal aliens who they arranged to flood Europe and America over the past ten years.
If Hungary will be attacked it will probably from the west and not Russia.
Hungary is tired of being manipulated by foreign interests and foreign globalists. Ukrainians are so infantile that they do not realize that all they are doing is enriching weapon manufactures while their citizens are being killed and infrastructure destroyed. All war are destructive and present-day wars are as destructive as the two previous World Wars.
There is no reason Russia should attack Hungary a trading partner.
Oh my gid maria, from all the silly things you have posted this is the worst. How old are you?!where is your brain located? Do you really think Russia is a peaceful country? They have been bullying neighbors countries all the time, it doesn’t matter if isna business partner or not. I wish with all my heart that Hungary is kicked out from the EU and NATO and let’s find how long this country can survive without assistance. It is very shameful to read your comments without any kind of source. Mine is history, take a look to your history and then we can talk
Jose, I did not say Russia is a peaceful country. I said there is no reason for Russia to attack Hungary, a great trading partner. There is a difference. Ukraine is an enemy. It is wrong for any country to work against its ethnic population and have ethnic Hungarians murdered for Biden’s and Pressman’s amusement.
