Russians outraged: ‘PM Orbán betrayed us!’
PM Viktor Orbán blocked Sweden’s NATO accession and 50 billion euros of EU aid for Ukraine. Furthermore, Hungary helped Russian oligarchs amid the sanctions war, even the Moscow patriarch. Orbán said several times that the West should not finance and arm Ukraine. Instead, Washington should talk with Moscow, establish a ceasefire and start peace negotiations. Russians liked that talk. But something changed this week after a key vote in Brussels.
No to EU and NATO accession
Last December, the European Union’s leaders and PM Viktor Orbán got up from the negotiation table in Brussels with a half-deal. The Hungarian prime minister left the room when there was a vote about Ukraine’s EU accession so that passed anonymously. However, he returned when talks started about a EUR 50 billion help for Ukraine and vetoed it.
Nobody really understood why, just like in the case of the blockage of Sweden’s NATO accession. In the latter case, Hungary did not even have claims, unlike Türkiye. For example, Erdogan wanted to buy American aircraft in return for his green light, while Orbán wanted nothing in specific.
Nobody understood the Hungarian prime minister
In the case of the Ukraine help, the situation was clearer. The European Union froze billions of euros of EU development and RRF funds. Orbán wanted Brussels to open those money taps. And that is what happened in December: the European Commission promised approximately 10 billion euros for Hungary. The Ukraine veto followed that decision.
Orbán talked about the corruption in Kyiv, but nobody really understood what happened.

Everything changed this Thursday. The European Union summoned another summit only to convince the Hungarian leader. According to Válasz Online, strengthening his fame was the only gain and purpose of Orbán’s blocks, nothing else. In that regard, the Hungarian prime minister was successful: headlines in Europe contained his name more times than anybody else in those days.
Russians outraged about PM Orbán
However, on Thursday, he said ‘Yes’ to all Ukraine claims and received nothing visible in return. The European leaders did not accept his proposal about the annual supervision of the money, which would have granted a veto for Hungary every year. Furthermore, Orbán could not unlock more frozen funds thanks to his ‘game’.
Many influencers and even politicians in Russia thought Orbán was an ally of them in the ‘new cold war’ between the West and Russia. For them, the Thursday decisions could equal a slap on their face. Of course, they should have watched the last personal meeting of the two leaders. Putin and Orbán sat at the two ends of a very long table. Orbán obtained the same place as any other NATO member heads, like President Macron, days later.
Now, the Russian comment writers are angry with the Hungarian prime minister. They said Orbán betrayed them. Another said the PM considered only Hungary’s economic interests, while according to another person, he committed treason just like President Erdogan.
“They broke Orbán since he is weak”, another one replied. “It was stupid to think Hungarians can resist”, another reader wrote.
Others said Orbán lacked an alternative because the EU would have destroyed the Hungarian economy. Some comment writers said PM Fico would be the next victim of Brussels’ campaign, index.hu wrote.

The impact of the gargantuan turnaround from the known adapted Political position, the reasons that Victor Orban – his Preaching’s – his PONTIFICATION – into and out of the European Union to the Citizens of Hungary into the Global world – his TALK – that had no relevance nor relationship to DEMOCRACY – there will be on the name Victor Orban rightfully intensified Retaliation.
Russia and China – will view this as an act of Disjointed relationship practice undertaken signed off by Victor Orban, in the what was a growing of relationships, designed and manufactured – of his own accord, and his Government – Political Party, like “Lemmings” following after him.
Victor Orban changed his Spots. – folding, succumbing to pressures from the POWER player country’s of the European Union that in his rolling over – it will not be favourable received, but dealt with – actioned factually with harshness at Victor Orban.
Hungary we again, in our millions, through the name Victor Orban will be” bruised and battered” – dealt a cruel and heavy unfair blow, bought on us as a country by the name Victor Orban.
HAVE we been HUMILIATED ?
Hungarians should be growing in humongous thousands adding to the millions of Hungarians who are not Orban “fans” – outraged by the Orban roll over.
The mass unnecessary mis-treatment – the abuse on us individually – and as a country – the Pressurizations as humans we have still are being subjected to in our lives, that factually sees our economy – the PLACE that Victor Orban has delivered us – in a position that is cataclysmic – trending downwards, that the zenith remains a Deep Blackened Hole.
Victor Orban – this humiliation of him his name, the ramifications from his about turn, the dangerous Political Ideas and Philosophy(s) – his “warped” Ideologies – that lacked substance nor relationship – to DEMOCRACY – that over 14 years this Prime Minister – his second coming, that History will record as an infamous time in the History of Hungary.
Orban has worn the ” Hallow” on his head that should have been accompanied by a tattoo on his forward – of what he has FEED out – “festered” – “propelled” elevated by the use of Propaganda, that has been “solely” geared focused on the eradication dismantling of DEMOCRACY in Hungary, and the GROWING building of relationships with Russia and China.
If this is not the end of the name Victor Orban, it certainly is FIRMLY the end of what will be the beginning personally I believe it is muchly further “down the line’ that at the beginning, of the name Victor Orban in Hungarian in Politics – European and Globally, irrespective if your favourite colour being RED or “other”.
Victor Orban – has CRUSHED the “Brand” and proud name of Hungary.
Orbán didnt veto sweeden’s nato accession, the parlament did beacuse of the attitude sweeden had against hungary throughout the years!
Attitude? Somebody’s feelings in Hungary were hurt? Issues about European security were not important? It was just about somebody’s hurt pride. Is that what Hungarian security planning is about? Are Hungarians that shallow and stupid? Hungarians need a government run by adults.
@anonymous – our Parliament does not regularly sit. We are generally ruled by Government Decree. Besides – Parliament pretty much does what is told when it does actually sit. So, let’s not pretend we have this reviewing, scrutinizing and debating forum that pores over matters coming across their desks.
Orbán and his criminal gang are traitors to us Hungarians and nation state in the first place!
We all know Orbán is playing games and at the end is just a globalist puppet as all politicians in power in Western Europe.
Look at what Fidesz is doing in Hungary and internationally. For example, we can be sure Orbán will sign the new WHO treaty, which will put us under full globalist control.
Orbán’s actions speak louder than words.
Surely Orban is expected to align with Eu policy since Hungary is a member. I do not agree with further arming Ukraine..rather there should be negotiations with Moscow to end this horrific and stupid war.
I find Mr. Orbán to be more of a political opportunist than anything else. A very effective one, though. Hard act to keep up!
Re “Peace!” – our Politicians favourite media celeb is currently in Russia, for all the right reasons I am sure:

and if is soo bad the situation why Biden son buy lands and lands in ukrain ??
we have to feed the Ukranians then , give them money, job, food and even they going back to ukrain for holiday??what a bunch of rubbish..
How soon Hungarians forgetvthe torturous hystory and suffering under Soviet occupation and the murderous put down of the 1956 revolution for freedom.
Putin is an evil genocidal murderer.
He signed along with Hussein Obama the Budapest Accord guranteeing Ukraines Sovereignty in return for Ukraine giving up their Nukes. So much for Russian trustworthiness.
Killing Ukrainians is a Russian national sport.
Russia is hellhole on earth governed by corrupt evil man just like all communist countries.
Shame on any Hungarian beliving Putin or Russia is their friend.
