          Yeah, if you want the war to continue go put your money where your mouth is instead of cheering for other people to die while you sit here and bloviate. Orban is a piece of shit, but him trying to keep his country out of a war is an objectively good thing, and only an utter deplorable piece of human garbage would think otherwise.

            I guess countries should stay out Israel and Palestine too and just let Israel do it’s genocide after all they just want to keep their country out of it. Also anyone defending Palestine should instead go to fight there personally, after all the war should end, no matter the outcome, right?

              Given that US material and political support is the only reason Israel is able to carry out a genocide, US staying the fuck out would in fact improve the situation immeasurably.

                  He’s actually advocating for a ceasefire in Palestine not an extended war. Thus he has no reason to start fighting. Unlike Ukraine fanatics that only want to send Ukrainian men into the meatgrinder but not themselves

                  I love how bad at trolling you are, since nowhere am I advocating for more fighting in Palestine. Try harder little buddy.

    I highly recommend corruption tour of Budapest organised by activists there. Most of the old town is owned by the gang of this corrupt shit.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:

    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.

    Orbán, considered Russian President Vladimir Putin’s closest partner in the EU, emphasized NATO’s role as a defensive alliance, and said he doesn’t share the concerns of some other Central and Eastern European countries that Russia’s military wouldn’t cease its aggression if it wins the war in Ukraine.

    “I don’t consider it a logical proposition that Russia, which cannot even deal with Ukraine, will come all of a sudden and swallow up the whole Western world.”

    Hungary has refused to supply neighboring Ukraine with military aid in contrast to most other countries in the EU, and Orbán has vigorously opposed the bloc’s sanctions on Moscow though has ultimately always voted for them.

    The nationalist leader is preparing for the European Parliament election on June 6-9, and has cast his party as a guarantor of peace in the region.

    He has characterized the United States and other EU countries that urge greater support for Ukraine as “pro-war” and acting in preparation for a global conflict.
