Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky "got directly involved" in the country's election campaign by "attacking" the Hungarian government, the Hungarian news agency MTI reported, quoted by BTA.
In a post on social networks, Orban pointed out that political attacks from Ukraine have reached a new level in the past week. "When President Zelensky attacks me personally because we do not support the accelerated accession of Ukraine to the EU, he is actually questioning the sovereign decision of the Hungarian people," the Hungarian prime minister said.
Orbán noted that according to a national poll in 2025, Hungarians have clearly shown that they do not want Ukraine to become a member of the European Union.
"As the prime minister of Hungary, it is my duty to implement the decision of the Hungarian people. And I will do it again and again, whether President Zelensky likes it or not," added Viktor Orbán.
