BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) — Hungary’s foreign minister on Wednesday said that his government wants guarantees from Kyiv that a Hungarian bank, recently removed from a Ukrainian list of sponsors of Russia’s war, will not be placed back on that list in the future — a sign that Budapest may not be ready to lift its veto of a major military aid package to Ukraine.
Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said that a Monday decision by the Ukrainian National Agency of Corruption Prevention to remove OTP Bank from the list was a “step in the right direction,” but that Hungary required further assurances before it would change its approach to Ukraine in any international settings.
Hungary’s Foreign Ministry has invited Ukraine’s anti-corruption agency to come to Budapest “as soon as possible” to discuss the listing of OTP, Szijjarto said, “so that we can negotiate an agreement that guarantees that no such decision will be taken (again) in the future.”

Time for Kiev to wake up and smell the coffee.
they can't, and won't. They are bitter clingers, installed in a different time with an ideology and insular group-dynamic that does not allow them to adjust course. They will die in their bunkers.
“Time for Kiev to wake up and smell the coffee.”
True. They need to step up attacks on Ruzzian cities and Ruzzian infrastructure.
Enough of the sick bloodlust. You need an exorcist.
Good for Hungary!
“Enough of the sick bloodlust.”
I have no love for either side here. But the fact remains that Putin started this war. He could end it today.

A neverending rotation of corrupt Ukrainian leaders turned it into the most criminal state in Europe. Their failure to manage their own affairs after 32 years of this nonsense provoked this entire situation. Putin is only liberating what was Russian territory from these corrupt puppets and oligarchs. Enough was enough.
Russian corruption is on par with anywhere else in the world.
This is a fight between two criminal gangs. We have no business supporting either side.
L
Oh, we absolutely should stay out of it. But the Ukraine is the bad guy in this situation, or to the point, its corrupt leaders.
Putin is just as corrupt and you know it.
The only difference between him and Zelenski is scale.

Putin is a tough, serious leader who loves his country. Zelensky is a pervert and a parasite, a warmongering lunatic who is destroying his country. If we had a “Putin” running America, we wouldn’t have half the problems we do today.
“ Putin is a tough, serious leader who loves his country.”
He also murders or imprisons his political opponents, uncooperative members of the press, and just happened to amass a fortune of a couple billion dollars accidentally.
“If we had a Putin running America today…”
You and I would both be in prison or dead and this forum wouldn’t exist.

Exactly, and take out that bridge in Crimea while they are at it.

Take a look at Russia and take a look at America. That’s the difference. We’re already living in a despotic, perverse, corrupt and fascistic state where elections are predetermined and “people like us” are in prison for having done nothing wrong but disagreeing with the degenerate illegally installed in the White House.
Russia invaded Ukraine.
That is a fact.

Your response makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

It’s pretty plain and laid out. Unless you disagree. What you accuse Putin of doing is already here in this country.
“What you accuse Putin of doing is already here in this country.”
Biden has tried to assassinate political rivals with polonium?
Biden has had people defenestrated?
Biden has had opposition journalists murdered?
I pay pretty close attention to things but I’ve not heard of any of these things happening here. Not that I don’t think he would if he thought he could get away with it.
