According to him, today society is "preparing for a world war" because of the critical situation on the battlefield in Ukraine.

Szijjártó warned that Hungary could block the EU's decision to provide member states with 1.5 billion euros from the European Peace Fund to supply weapons to Ukraine.

In addition, Hungary will not agree to unblock the 500 million euro tranche under the European Peace Framework program.

Hungary's position remains unchanged and clear. Until we receive guarantees from the Ukrainian side that they will stop the witch hunt against Hungarian companies operating in Ukraine, we will not be able to facilitate such decisions (allocation of aid to Ukraine - ed.)

- Petr Siyarto emphasized.

Szijjarto called discrimination against Hungarian companies unacceptable, citing unreasonable procedures and fabricated reasons.
