Hungary will not support the EU plan to send military advisors and instructors to Ukraine, Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said. Hungary, as well as Slovakia, are the only two EU and NATO members that border Ukraine and are immediately affected by war. According to a TASS report, he was quoted in Hungary’s MTI news agency as saying: “Unfortunately, this is a dangerous proposal. In our opinion, it will significantly increase the risk of escalation of the war and thus its further expansion. It is also dangerous for us, for Hungary, because when a conflict escalates, it always escalates first for the neighbors, not thousands of kilometers away…. So we say ‘no’ to this proposal, we have already informed the European External Action Service in Brussels that we cannot support the proposal in this form. We have asked them to reconsider.”
