When Prime Minister Viktor Orbán warned in the summer that the intensity of the war in Ukraine would escalate rapidly, after his round of diplomacy with the Ukrainian, Russian, Chinese and Turkish presidents, events have since proven him right, Fidesz communications director Tamás Menczer said on Facebook.
He said Orbán wrote the warning in a report to the president of the European Council in July.
In the video post late on Tuesday, Menczer added that during meetings with the leaders and the former US president, Donald Trump, it had become clear that the warring parties were not interested in a ceasefire and only an outside party could bring them to the table.
“This is unlikely as the current American and Brussels leadership are pro-war,” he said.

So Trump’s role as a peace mediator “is especially important”, he said.
“The only way to establish peace is to negotiate with the Chinese, with the Russians … and with the countries of the global South,” he cited Orbán as saying.

Wow. 8000 Ukrainians came to Hungary in two days! However … Only 41 decided to stay. Land of Milk and Honey, people!
Mr. Menczer is correct in one thing: Mr. Putin is not interested in a ceasefire. He just wants to win. So-called “Peace!” negotiations in the form of appeasement or Russia would do very nicely, madam.
The “Ukraine cannot win” / “Russia is winning” narrative appears to have abated, understandable since, objectively, Russia is hardly winning on the battlefield. There are a lot of unscheduled fireworks going off, of late:

FISESZ Demanding ceasefire is like ONU “condemning” the russia aggression. Kind of empty words. But still someone will lose. The only leason here is never make a deal with Russia that undermines your own security.
