Hungarian FM: Remarks about sending European troops to Ukraine go against NATO decisions
Change language:
Any plan or remark about the potential deployment of European troops in Ukraine “goes directly against” the decisions made by NATO in connection with the war between Russia and Ukraine, Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó said on Thursday.
Asked at a press conference to comment on recent remarks by French President Emmanuel Macron in which he said he did not rule out Western troops being sent to Ukraine, Szijjártó warned against making “dangerous statements” that risked escalation.
The minister said words and declarations “weigh far heavier” in tense situations than in times of peace, underlining that Hungary would not send troops to Ukraine “under any circumstances” and was also sticking to its decision against delivering weapons.
Szijjártó welcomed, at the same time, the clear declaration by several European leaders not to send troops to Ukraine, either.
He noted that two years ago, NATO declared that it was not party to the war, and that everything possible needed to be done to avoid a direct confrontation with Russia.
‘Peel it Off” – unveil it, not a difficult “Mental” exercise. to why the Foreign Minister – adapted AGAIN the Hungarian position, in relation to the WAR commenced on the Ukraine by Vladimir Putin’s – Russia.
Why would anyone think that the UK and France will abide by NATO decisions? When UK and France placed soldiers into Ukraine, their said governments placed their population into jeopardy. It gave Russia an excuse to attack both countries since their action is tantamount to declaration of war. It would not be a surprise if Russia would use small nuclear weapons in retaliation.
Was Ukraine’s decision of joining NATO worth starting WWIII?
