The Hungarian government has declared Russia a "threat to Hungary, Europe, and the global order"

The new government of Hungary, under the leadership of Prime Minister Péter Magyar, has adopted a firm stance against Russia, declaring it a "threat to Hungary, Europe, and the global order," according to dpa cited by Agerpres.

This shift in direction is highlighted in a document that sets the guidelines for the Hungarian delegation at the United Nations General Assembly in September. The document condemns Russian military aggression and supports Ukraine's sovereignty.

This position marks a break from Orbán's foreign policy, which favored Russia for 16 years, and has drawn criticism from the European Union, according to dpa. Additionally, Magyar's government has begun negotiations for EU membership with Ukraine but continues to refuse to supply arms to Kyiv and opposes Ukraine's accelerated accession to the EU.
