Hungarian FM: Estonia PM’s shock at Orbán-Putin meeting ‘hypocrisy’
Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó has hit back at Estonian Prime Minister Kaja Kallas’s recent expression of shock over Tuesday’s meeting between Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán and Russian President Vladimir Putin, calling her reaction “hypocrisy at its peak”.
Szijjártó reacted to Kallas having called images of the meeting “very, very unpleasant” and saying it defied logic.
“It is with great respect that I’d like to note that this is the same Kaja Kallas whose husband was recently revealed to have owned a share in a company that supplied 30 million euros worth of raw materials to a Russian factory even after the outbreak of the war.” the minister said on Facebook late on Wednesday.
“Hypocrisy at its peak,” Szijjártó added.

When will Orban meet with the other leaders of the axis of evil – Kim Jong Un and Ali Khamenei?
Funny, how Estonia with its population of 1.4 million hosts more Ukrainian refugees than Hungary.

There must be something to like about Estonia! Perhaps worth a road trip for Mr. Szijjártó – he loves to travel, may learn something?
I don’t know who is going to win the Ukraine war. I don’t believe anyone does at this time. What I am sure of is that regardless who wins, Hungary will be a loser. The current Hungarian diplomacy is horrible. The EU is not our friend. The US is not our friend. The V4 countries are not happy with Hungary. NATO is questioning the reliability of Hungary as an ally. Does anyone in Hungary believe that Russia, China and Iran are good friends of Hungary. If you do you need to have your head examined.
