There are forces that are destroying Europe from within. This refers to the Prime Minister of Slovakia Robert Fico and the Prime Minister of Hungary Viktor Orbán.

According to him, he is "not so much skeptical as disappointed with Europe's position."
We see in the example of Moldova that despite Ukraine and Moldova moving in sync, negotiations on Moldova (regarding EU accession - ed.) have already begun. But we must understand that there are forces that are destroying Europe from within. We have Hungary - Orbán. Next year there will be elections, let's cross our fingers that these elections will bring changes for Hungary, so that the despotic times will end
Hungary blocked Ukraine's EU accession, said Prime Minister Viktor Orbán27.06.25, 16:41 • 4063 views
In this context, he added that there is also Slovakia and its Prime Minister Robert Fico.
They work in a joint tandem from time to time. One time one blocks sanctions (against the Russian Federation - ed.), and another time they switch. Now Denmark is chairing (the Council of the European Union - ed.) and it is trying to put an end to this, to take away Hungary's right to vote, let's see if it works. I am quite skeptical about this
