BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) — Hungary will seek to opt out of any NATO operations aimed at supporting Ukraine, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said Friday, suggesting that the military alliance and the European Union were moving toward a more direct conflict with Russia.
Orbán told state radio that Hungary opposes a plan NATO is weighing to provide more predictable military support to Ukraine in coming years to repel Moscow’s full-scale invasion, as better armed Russian troops assert control on the battlefield.
“We do not approve of this, nor do we want to participate in financial or arms support (for Ukraine), even within the framework of NATO,” Orbán said, adding that Hungary has taken a position as a “nonparticipant” in any potential NATO operations to assist Kyiv.

“The one positive to come out of this catastrophe in Ukraine if we survive will be the dissolution of NATO.”
That would be GREAT - and hopefully the Neocons are thrown on their asses never to start another war again.
I hope he’s got better security than Fico had.
I’d settle for the US ‘graduating’ from NATO and leaving the Europeans to their own collective defense.
Here is a much better headline and article:
Orban Calls Talks About 'Russian Threat' West's Maneuver to Prepare for War
Orban is not simply saying that Hungary doesn't want to help Ukraine, as AP's headline suggests. He is going much further than that. He is saying that a major war between NATO and Russia is coming (which, naturally, Hungary doesn't want a part of) and that we're being conditioned to expect this, right now, by folks like AP.

Good point! Is this why Republicans are pulling out maps of Russia in congress and authorizing attacks on Russian soil?
