PM Viktor Orbán: There can be no winner in Ukraine war
Change language:
“There can be no winner in this war,” Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said in Balatonfüred, in western Hungary, daily Magyar Nemzet reported online late on Wednesday.
Meeting deputies of the ruling Fidesz-Christian Democrat parties ahead of parliament’s spring session, Orbán said the government had decided not to change its position on the war in Ukraine because “it is in Hungary’s national interest that the country should stay out of this war”.
“Hungarians so decided in April and we will not send weapons or join any war coalitions,” the paper quoted Orbán as saying. “We are not supporting anybody, because there can be no winner in this war.” Russia cannot win, because “the whole Western world is behind Ukraine,” he said, adding that “Russia is a nuclear power and cannot be cornered because that could trigger a nuclear war.”
The “sole morally right” position is that of the ruling parties, Orbán said, because “lives can only be saved through a ceasefire and peace talks”.
Europe has weakened during the past year because “the Biden administration promotes its interests in Brussels with no constraint, to the detriment of European interests,” Orbán said. “The responses to the war … a tsunami of sanctions have started weakening the European economy, while it does not affect America, which is rich in energy,” he said. He added that Europe’s military capabilities had also weakened, because the war had depleted the reserves of Europe’s armies, and they had not been replaced.
In the span of less than a year, Europe “lost its independence, its economic and military strength”, Orbán said. In this situation Hungary must promote its own interests to survive the war “unharmed and stronger”, he insisted. To that end, the country needs to protect its independence and the “pro-peace position against the Biden administration and Brussels”, he added.
Mr. Prime Minister – Victor Orban – don’t you THINK – that DEMOCRACY, from your own mouth – Hero’s Square in August 1989, when YOU took to the microphone – spoke to ALL Hungarians, Europe & the Wider World – you PREACHED – for the FUTURE of Hungary – our way – our FUTURE was as a DEMOCRACY?
Mr Prime Minister – should not DEMOCRACY be the WINNER?
It grows in EVIDANCE, that the books on your library shelf, referencing LEGACIES of Democracy, have ALL been taken downstairs and BURT, replaced by books, that oddly enough there sleeves are all bound in RED.
History never Lies – August 1989 – the PRAISE – that DEMOCRACY was the FUTURE for Hungary.
You tube it – its available for ALL to hear – Victor Orban.
The burning of those books, on DEMOCRACY – reminiscent of events in Munich – all those decades past.
Our Politicians – always “fighting” for or against something! So we have the highest inflation and the highest 10 year government bond yield rate (fund budget shortfalls, anyone) in the EU because of the Brussels Bureaucrats, Soros Lapdogs, the Liberal Elite and/or Profiteering Capitalists …
It’s could not possibly be Politicians making decisions that turned out to be ill advised, of course.
Shakespeare’s – Romeo & Juliet, the “Players” just not Romeo & Juliet, if asking the question who won, who lost, the answer is that ALL where PUNISHED and no stand out winner emerged.
“All where Punished.”
In time, this is a probable out come on this war by Russia on the Ukraine.
Democracy – will strengthen in the time this War lasts.
ALL the players will be PUNISHED – and in saying that – the “Internal & External ” punishment will be HEAVIEST on Russia – RIGHTFULLY.
