According to the politician, he understands Ukrainians, because "their country is ruined", while it was "an insolvent bankrupt" both before the war and now. According to Orban, Ukrainians "cannot stand on their own feet, they need someone else's money", so they want to join the European Union immediately and at any cost.
We do not want them to drag us into their war, ruin our farmers, turn the safest country in Europe into a mafia nest, and we do not want Hungarian money to go to them through Brussels
He also criticized the anti-Russian sanctions, calling them a failure, and accused Brussels of losing its strategic vision.
Recall
In April, during the Hungarian poll VOKS 2025, the country's Prime Minister Viktor Orban voted against Ukraine's accession to the EU, believing that it threatens the country's economy. In turn, Orban's adviser said that supporting Ukraine would cost the country $100 billion a year.
