Hungary warns UK, France could escalate Europe-Russia tensions
The warning comes after UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron signed a declaration with Ukraine to establish “military hubs” once a peace deal is reached with Moscow. UK Defense Secretary John Healey said London would invest hundreds of millions of dollars to equip units for a “multinational force.”
Szijjarto, speaking at a Fidesz party congress, criticized Western European leaders’ approach as “war fanaticism” that endangers Hungary. “Last weekend, a statement was released in Paris announcing the two European nuclear powers’ decision to send their troops to Ukraine.
Essentially, this means that the European nuclear powers are starting a war. Their goal, let us be clear, is to engulf all of Europe in flames,” he said.
He also claimed the EU sees Prime Minister Viktor Orban as “the only obstacle” to its plans and is aiming to replace him with a pro-Ukrainian leader in the April parliamentary elections. “If we win the election, we will stay out of the war. If we do not win, then the Brussels–Kiev plan will be implemented,” Szijjarto added.
Under the Paris plan, Britain and France would deploy troops to build protected weapons facilities and assist in US-led truce monitoring, while the US has ruled out sending its own soldiers to Ukraine.
