"I hope that colleagues like Orban will not become accomplices of Putin and Lukashenko. Because if he blocks the EU 90 billion intended for us, for weapons-which, by the way, are not his money-then from a historical perspective, Orban will become an ally of the fascist Russian regime."
"Therefore, in my opinion, the blocking will not happen. The European Union will find ways to bypass this. We will receive the appropriate funds, and the US will give us the opportunity to purchase the appropriate weapons that we need and which the Europeans do not have."
"The Hungarian government, led by Viktor Orbán, has opposed the transfer, citing concerns that the loan should be tied to restoring Russian energy transit through the Druzhba pipeline, underscoring the complex political and economic stakes involved."
Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy believes the European Union will find legal and political mechanisms to deliver a €90 billion loan despite Hungary's opposition. Hungary, led by Viktor Orbán, opposes the transfer, citing concerns about Russian energy transit through the Druzhba pipeline and economic pressure from Ukraine's suspension of oil flows. Hungarian officials claim their stance is motivated by national energy security. Zelenskyy urges European unity and warns that blocking the funds would make Orbán complicit with Putin. He expresses confidence the EU will find ways to bypass Hungary's veto and that the US will provide weapons support.
