Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban is spearheading an aggressive campaign against Ukraine's EU accession, using pro-government media to disseminate alarming narratives. The campaign paints Ukraine as a hub of drug and arms trafficking, threatening Hungary's security and stability. Orban's language has become increasingly harsh, reflecting his longstanding pro-Russian stance. The campaign exploits fears of crime and immigration, aiming to sway public opinion before a referendum on the issue. This rhetoric represents a significant escalation of anti-Ukrainian sentiment in Hungary, feeding into established prejudices and concerns about public safety and health services.
The war has brought more weapons into their hands than ever before. If Ukraine joins the EU, the Ukrainian mafia will come to Hungary unhindered.
Orban has been on a pro-Russian and anti-Ukrainian course for years, and his current campaign tops any of his previous smear and defamation campaigns.
These are propaganda lies that are as shocking as they are racist, portraying Ukraine as a center of drug trafficking and organized crime.
Brussels is playing with fire by entertaining Ukraine's EU accession while Hungary grapples with fears of public security collapse.
