Orbán warns: Ukraine-EU accession could ruin Hungarian economy!

The Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán announced a public survey on the EU membership of Ukraine, which is to be carried out before the eyes of the Hungarian citizens. In a statement, Orbán made it clear that a decision on accession can only be made with the consent of all EU countries. He warns of dramatic economic consequences that could have access to Hungary, especially for the agricultural sector. "We are not allowed to go," he emphasized, making it clear that the decision is ultimately the case with the Hungarian, such as Exxpress.at reported.

In his speech on the state of the nation, Orbán further explained that Ukraine was a buffer zone between Russia and NATO countries and that this role will take over again after the end of the war. "Against the will of Hungary, Ukraine will never become a member of the European Union. Entry would endanger the Hungarian farmers and the entire economy," said Orbán. This clear positioning shows that Hungary sees himself as a decisive actor in the EU expansion process, while he has opposed Ukraine support with Russia, which he has underlined several times in the past, as Euronews.com documented.
