One day before a key European leaders’ summit begins in Brussels, the Hungarian prime minister, Viktor Orbán, reiterated his position that Hungary would block opening accession negotiations with Ukraine, reported from The Guardian.
"The European Union is getting ready to make a terrible mistake, and they have to be prevented in this – even if 26 want to do this, and only we are opposed,” he said.
Speaking in a podcast interview with Mandiner, a pro-government Hungarian publication, published this morning, the prime minister said:
"The Hungarian position is that if we want to give Ukraine support, a geopolitical signal, then let’s give – but that’s not membership. Let’s leave membership as what it is."
The Hungarian leader argued that opening Ukraine’s path to accession would undermine the bloc’s credibility.
