Viktor Orbán listed as enemy of the state on a Ukrainian death list
Hungarian Prime Minister, Viktor Orbán was reportedly listed as an enemy of Ukraine on the far-right website called Mirotvorec, crudely nicknamed the “death list.” The website presents the personal information of tens of thousands of individuals, such as their full name, date of birth, address, and passport number.
Mandiner reported that ever since the annexation of Crimea and the Russian occupation of Donbas, ultranationalist Ukrainians use Mitrovorec, and many similar digital spaces, to list their nation’s enemies. After the murder of the Russian politician Oleg Kalashnikov in 2015, the general population started referring to such sites as death lists. This is because the victims’ names were listed online before their passing.
The people operating the website could not have gained personal information without the help of Ukrainian internal security, specialists say. Actions of such sorts would heavily violate people’s rights: the Ukrainian government in Kyiv argues that they are unable to restrict the site because it is privately owned.
Unsurprisingly, such happenings would disturb many, some to the point of leaving their occupations.
HírTV detailed the event with the help of their correspondent György Dunda:
“In previous years, Hungarians have already suffered from the actions of Mirotvorec. Those who were thought to carry dual citizenship ended up on the site, especially if they worked or held higher positions in government offices or institutions. These individuals had their personal information leaked and consequently, some of them left their state positions due to fear. This also brought fear to people living in local Hungarian communities” – said Dunda.
“It is not only the Prime Minister who has been listed on the site: among others, politicians such as Minister of Foreign Affairs Péter Szijjártó, and President of the Hungarian Cultural Association László Brenzovics have been put on the so-called death list as well,” continued Dunda.
One can easily make a correlation between the listing of the Prime Minister and the ongoing Russian conflict in Ukraine.
Many do not understand why the Hungarian Government refuses to supply Ukraine with weapons.
Dunda says that “some Ukrainian circles set a double standard towards Hungary, especially if we take into consideration the immense humanitarian help that our nation has offered to alleviate the hardships of those who flee Ukraine due to the war.”

It is tiring to see anyone in Ukraine blame Hungary for its war with Russia. The only people to be blamed are Zelensky and government, President Biden and government, Russia. Hungary does not owe weapons to Ukraine. Ukraine had the same opportunity to purchase weapons prior to 2020. The EU governments as well as the US taxpayers are conned into paying for Zelensky’s heroic act.
All it takes for evil to flourish is for good men to do nothing.
This should explain why people in other countries that believe in the sanctity of life, human rights, the right of the people to decide their destiny and national sovereignty are so frustrated with the people og Hungary and your government.
@marievontheresa, we know you are fifth columnist working for the Russians and we know where you are in Canada.
Website name is Mirotvorec (translation of Peacemaker). Hungarian news, all until the last one copy-pasted news with the typo, and there was no single one who checked the saurce and does it make sense at all… Sensationalism over the facts.
It is certainly troubling and wrong that such information is being leaked and made public. At the same time, Hungary and Hungarians cannot escape the criticism that their government is on the wrong side of history in refusing to take any actions against Putin. Humanitarian assistance is a very convenient excuse because it is not a politically sensitive issue. You can offer assistance without taking any sides and offending anyone. That does not really show moral leadership.
Austria, Switzerland, etc. are neutral. Scooter and Anonymous, I have not seen you mention those other countries. Hungary, presently, is looking after Ukrainian refugees and sending medical and humanitarian aid to Ukraine. Sending weapons to Ukraine will only prolong the war, destroy more cities and kill more non combatants. The short sightedness of the above mentioned commentators is amazing. While the war lasts, the fields of Ukraine are not being cultivated. Russia and Ukraine supplies a third of the the world’s grains. The result will be hunger. Congratulation people, just blindly support Zelensky.
They came for the Jews, but I stood by and did nothing because I was not Jewish. Then they came for the Ukrainians, but I stood by and did nothing because I was not Ukrainian. But when they came for me………… Does this remind you of some famous philosophical statement?

We know everyone’s entitled to their opinion, but as an armchair military strategist way over in Canada, you seem to have trouble in condoning Russia. Fortunately much of the world doesn’t share your views. Perhaps you could pop your concerns in writing to NATO and see if they get back to you on your outstanding advice.
If all countries stand by and do nothing, do you really think Russia will stop with Ukraine. I know we’re in NATO, but here’s the thing; Putin doesn’t care. He’s losing support from his staff, some of his Generals have been killed. Whatever he says, he’s a rat backed into a corner and that makes him unpredictable. There will be false flag incidents. He could fire something into any of our countries and deny responsibility. For all we know he could be ill and therefore thinks he has nothing left to lose! Finland is all but ready to sign to join NATO. Are you going to blame that on Mr Zelensky too.
