Government enraged for Zelenskiy’s remarks that Hungary “supports Russia”
Foreign ministry state secretary Levente Magyar on Wednesday talked to Ukrainian Ambassador Lyubov Nepop, and rejected what he called “unfair accusations” levelled by Ukrainian leaders against Hungary.
Magyar told MTI after the meeting that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Deputy Prime Minister Olha Stefanishyna had accused Hungary’s government of “not reacting proportionately” to the Russia-Ukraine war.
Zelensky’s comments that Hungary “wasn’t even doing as much as everyone else does”, and that
Hungary “supports Russia”,
are offensive to all compassionate Hungarians who have condemned the war and actively helped Ukraine, Magyar said.
Hungary “set aside its ongoing debates with Ukraine on the first day of the war, and, contrary to the words of the Ukrainian deputy prime minister, has not stood in the way of the cooperation between Ukraine, the European Union and NATO”, Magyar said.
“We have opened the borders to more than half a million refugees since the start of the war, contributed to easing the suffering of those in need with countless deliveries of private and state-funded donations, provided hospital treatment for 130 Ukrainian children and taken part in every international effort aiming to stop the bloodshed,”
he added.
None of those efforts would have been possible without the sacrifice and support of Hungarian citizens, who only deserve praise and gratitude for their efforts, he said.
“We call on Ukraine to refrain from insulting Hungary
and commenting on its internal affairs even in these hard times; they can, in the meantime, continue to count on our help,” he said.

It reminds me of Violet Elizabeth Bott (played by Bonnie Langford – who by the way, is appearing in a show on a Danube cruise this autumn) who used to say “I’ll thkweem and thwkeem until I’m thick” in Just William. Once again, a Hungarian Minister is behaving like a petulant child.
It is hard to comprehend that the sore loser never give up criticizing Hungary. When scanning the net I found an article by Anita Zsurzsan who wrote “when out next opportunity comes to defeat Orban this is a lesson to remember” the operative word is WE. Then there is an article by Edit Zgut. The articles show bias. Both of these women suppose to have great academic qualification. However, these article reeks of stupid naive comments, jealousy and hate.
The wonder is that these women have been educated at a great price yet neither has learned critical thinking and neither can keep their Marxist philosophy out of their article. It is time for both of these ridiculous women to realize that the people of Hungary trust FIDESZ party. It is time that these ridiculous women realize that conservative governments were established in the 1800s and served the people well It is time for these two morons to realize that a populous conservative form of government can serve the people well. Even your inane ideas should help you realize that there is more hardship and disharmony in leftwing EU governments which you so unthinkingly support.
It seems that Zelensky does not have time to spend on the war and the welfare of its people, he is too busy posing for photos, making speeches and criticizing Hungary for not claiming him “HERO of the 21st CENTURY”
It is time for Zelensky to realize that Hungary is a sovereign country, not a puppet of the EU or NATO. The Hungarian government’s duty is to its people. Zelensky, you are responsible for the welfare of the Ukrainian people, spending time to increasing your weapon supply to extend the war, rather than trying to come to a cease fire or peace agreement, adversely affects your country and people … You should be crying when you see the destroyed cities and bodies of civilians. So Shut Up about Hungary. The Hungarian government is doing its job it is time for you to do yours.
Just one little comment in response to the above.
Forget the EU and NATO. Hungary is a puppet of Russia.

Hey, thought you’d have changed your mind about Volodymyr Zelenskyy. After all, he appeared on your favourite channel, Fox News. We know how much you respect their reports. Admittedly it wasn’t with that interviewer you like, Carlson Tucker (or whatever his name is), but hey ho, can’t have everything………
Anonymous. why would I change my mind? Zelensky seem to want to extend the war. One point everyone ignores is the cost of this war to all members of the V4 and EU countries. People’s tax contributions are used when weapons are sent to Ukraine as well as support for the refugees. Yes, the Ukrainian refugees, most of whom are women and children, should be cared for and protected.
I think that Hungarian hater, Anonymous, may be a paid employee of anti-freedom, economy destroyer, nation destroyer, power hungry, Hungary hater, NWO Globalist, billionaire George Soros.
