Viktor Orbán blasts back at lawmakers.
Gergely Gulyás, Head of the Administration of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, stated at a press conference on 18 January that Budapest "must aim" to be on good terms with Ukraine, and this possibility "must not be ruled out".
The risk in 2024 is that far from a geopolitical EU, a more insular bloc will emerge instead.
Hungary has signalled to the European Union that it is ready to withdraw its opposition to new long-term funding for Ukraine. Source: European Pravda, citing Politico Details: Several European diplomats and officials, speaking to the publication, have reported that Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán is approaching a compromise on the use of funds from the European Union budget to support Ukraine, even if it does not meet the demands he put forward after the EU summit in December 2023.
Talks continue over how to enable Hungarian government to save face ― while still getting Kyiv its cash.
