Hungary's Orban Meets Putin Amid Criticism from EU and Ukraine
Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orban has faced criticism from EU leaders and Ukraine's government after meeting Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow. This visit, described by Orban as a "peace mission," follows his recent meeting with Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky in Kyiv. Despite Hungary's current presidency of the Council of the European Union, EU leaders emphasize that Orban does not represent the bloc's stance in his dealings with Russia. Orban remains the EU's sole head of government maintaining close ties with the Kremlin despite Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
