Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban accused Ukraine of meddling in Hungary’s internal affairs and colluding with an opposition party, European Pravda reported on May 13.
“Ukraine has initiated a coordinated campaign to vilify Hungary in order to undermine our initiative to hold a poll on (Kyiv’s) EU membership,” Orban said after the meeting of the Hungarian Defense Council.
The remarks came days after Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) claimed it had exposed a Hungarian espionage network in western Ukraine, detaining two agents.
In response, Hungary expelled two Ukrainian diplomats, a move met with reciprocal expulsions by Kyiv.
Orban escalated the accusations by claiming that Kyiv had “renewed its contacts in Hungary to carry out this campaign” and had “launched a campaign against the Hungarian Defense Forces with the help of a Hungarian politician.”
“Thus, the Hungarian opposition party took an active part in the special operation of the Ukrainian secret service. Such a thing has never happened in our memory,” Orban said, likely referring to the Tisza party led by opposition figure Peter Magyar.
The opposition politician visited Kyiv in July 2024, raised funds for humanitarian aid, and pledged to “end Hungary’s isolation from the West” if elected.
The country is scheduled to hold national elections in 2026.
Orban said Hungary would proceed with a national consultation on Ukraine’s EU membership bid, emphasizing that “neither Brussels nor Kyiv can decide instead of the Hungarian people.”
The poll is non-binding and part of Orban’s regular political playbook. Past consultations have been criticized for low turnout and manipulative questions.
For instance, a 2023 consultation on EU migration policy asked Hungarians if they supported Brussels’s creation of “migrant ghettos” in Hungary.
Less than 20% of voters participated, but 99% of those who did responded “no.”
Kyiv formally applied for EU membership in 2022 and began accession talks in June 2024. EU leaders have outlined 2030 as a tentative target for Ukraine’s potential entry.
As a member state, Hungary holds veto power over each phase of the process.
Orban, widely regarded as the EU’s most pro-Russian leader, has repeatedly opposed military aid for Ukraine and warned that Ukraine’s EU membership would “destroy” Hungary.

The reason the fat toad is ranting against Ukraine is that he knows he’s guilty of spying, and he’s angry to have been caught.
I hope that Ukraine will find the right answer to this trash country’s devious behavior.
Maybe once Ukraine have finished with mafia land they can liberate Hungary.
“Orban, widely regarded as the EU’s most pro-Russian leader, has repeatedly opposed military aid for Ukraine and warned that Ukraine’s EU membership would “destroy” Hungary.”
I can’t see a problem with that at all. The EU needs to start removing this pro-russian trash, and forget all about this unity nonsense. The same goes for NATO.
Both the EU and NATO are far too pathetic to ever do anything concrete about the shithole.
“Ukraine has initiated a coordinated campaign to vilify Hungary in order to undermine our initiative to hold a poll on (Kyiv’s) EU membership,” Orban said after the meeting of the Hungarian Defense Council.”
That’s a lot less than you and your piss-ass country deserves, you fat toad.
A reminder: OrbanaZi is Krasnov’s favourite scum dictator, with of course the exception only of putler the rat.
The fat toad, the convicted felon, the blood-soaked vampire, the chink Xi, porky, and the mullahs all remind me of maggots infesting a pile of dog shit.
Its is also noise, timing is everything, to throw more crap headllines that take attention away from Istanbul. No one cares what toadman croaks about.
That is true, but I still wish that the EU could stuff a sock into his big fat mouth once and for all. Better yet, toss his insignificant country out of the organization. Ditto for NATO.
Ha,ha,ha!
