Member of the European Parliament from Belgium and former Prime Minister of the country Guy Verhofstadt also expressed his attitude towards Orban.
Belgian Prime Minister Alexander de Croo suggested to his Hungarian counterpart Viktor Orban to “keep your mouth shut” after the decision was made to open negotiations with Ukraine on accession to the EU.

In a statement addressed to Orbán, he said: “If you agreed with the decision that 27 member states agreed upon, then there is no point in saying afterwards that you have a different opinion,” reports Channel 24.
“Either if you are part of the solution, you agree with it, or after all this you just need to keep your mouth closed…”, opined the Belgian prime minister.
At the same time, he noted that he should not have given such advice to Orban publicly.
Member of the European Parliament from Belgium and its former Prime Minister Guy Verhofstadt also expressed his attitude towards Orban, who believes that the Hungarian Prime Minister chose Russia over freedom. “Orban left the room when Ukraine’s European dream was supported by EU leaders… Although he is always more than happy to be in the same room with Putin,” he said.

Those are the right words. The right action following them should be a boot up Orb-anus’ fat ass.
On another subject, I thought you might get a kick out of this Sir Facts. It is sickening propaganda from THIS YEAR…

Really? in 2023 the military power rankings of ruzzia and the USA are virtually the same…
Where’s my vodka?…….
Sorry, but I can’t accept the reliability of this ranking, Sir Red, because it’s obviously very flawed. PW Live is Physics Wallah, a company from India. Should I say more?

Notes:
The ongoing Russo-Ukrainian War has showcased key limitations in Russian military capabilities despite its quantitative manpower and material advantage over neighboring Ukraine – shedding light on preparedness, leadership, training, and supply issues. While it maintains its No.2 placement in the GFP index for the current year (despite material losses incurred in the months-long war), No.3 China is closing in on the spot mainly due to consistent strength in primary categories, expansion in critical categories, and its global financial reach.

Global Firepower lists Ukraine as #15; ahead of Israel (#18). This is their “2023 Military Strength Ranking”. Read the blurb at the top of the page to see what their ranking means.

Here’s their notes for Ukraine:
As Ukraine continues its defense against Russia, it has increased its GFP index score for the current year as a result of its response, financial and material backing from the West, and introduction of new key categories which benefit its overall placement on the list. 2023 will prove a critical year in the direction of the bloody Russo-Ukrainian Conflict as the stresses and demands of a prolonged war against a larger neighboring power will eventually come to light.
