Opposition: Orbán discrediting Hungary by defending Putin
Hungary’s justice minister was the only EU minister not to sign the joint resolution on supporting the International Criminal Court’s decision to issue an arrest warrant against Russian President Vladimir Putin, who is accused of war crimes, opposition Democratic Coalition party MEP Sándor Rónai said on Tuesday.
Rónai told an online press briefing that Prime Minister Viktor Orbán was “discrediting Hungary by defending” Putin, and “cementing Hungary’s isolation” from the rest of the European Union, thereby compromising its EU funding.
He said that far from benefiting from Putin’s support, Hungary was being gravely damaged as a result.

I believe it’s the opposite impression. Hungary is showing independence, autonomy and strength in not participating in the persecution of Russia.
Readers,
Please do not consider the ICC as a legitimate body.
The USA has refused to join, so has Russia, China and India.
Interestingly Ukraine is NOT a member also!
These countries did not join because they know its a sham court!
On a more general note please always be careful when the Media uses these supranational bodies to push their narrative. Virtually all of them UN, EU, ICC, WHO, etc are totally corrupt
Just saying!
