President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy criticized Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban's attempts to "put pressure on Putin", UNN reports.
"We need a strong union, not those countries that want to do what Hungary wants today, like Prime Minister Orban, wants to do somehow... It won't work, I won't let him and people like him do it," Zelenskyy said during a meeting of the All-Ukrainian Congress of Local and Regional Authorities.
He emphasizes that Ukraine is a strong country both on the battlefield and during a full-scale invasion.
"Does anyone else in Europe have such an example? No one does. Does Orban have such an army? No. How will he put pressure on Putin? A joke? A smile? Let him keep it," the President added.
Recall
The Hungarian Foreign Ministry called Kyiv's refusal to allow a phone call between Orban and Zelensky an "unprecedented gesture." Szijjártó said that Hungary had done more than anyone else for the peaceful resolution of the conflict.
