Hungarian 🇭🇺Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto states that conditions are simply not right for the European Union to consider membership for Ukraine. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is of the opposite view and wants the EU 🇪🇺 to commence “accession negotiations” with both Ukraine 🇺🇦 and Moldova 🇲🇩. FM Szijjarto said a major objective of Hungary’s EU presidency in the second half of 2024 will be to move ahead with Romania’s 🇷🇴 integration with the bloc’s passport-free Schengen zone. Hungary’s Fidesz MEP Andrea Bocskor said in a statement that one of the conditions for EU candidacy is guaranteeing the rights of national minorities, and Ukraine’s minority law failed to do this sufficiently. Ukraine’s minority law, is designed to target ethnic Hungarians in Transcarpathia (who are forcibly conscripted by Kiev) and Hungarian-language educational institutions there. Dual citizens are not allowed to use a Hungarian passport to cross the Ukrainian border. Ukrainian ’Right Sector’ neo-nazis threatened to slaughter all Hungarians in Transcarpathia in a “2023 new years greeting“ video. In August, FM Szijjarto revealed that EU 🇪🇺 member states are expecting to fund the war in Ukraine for at least another 4 years at a cost of €5 billion per year. In May, Hungary chose to block a further €500 million-euro ($542 million) tranche of EU (off-budget) financing for arming Ukraine. Hungarian President Katalin Novák has expressed her strong belief that strong borders represent a strong country and that Hungary is protecting actually the external borders of the EU, of the Schengen zone. In 2021, Hungarian police detained 1,277 smugglers who tried to ship illegal migrants across the country. Video source: M1 - Híradó Источник: The Paradigm Shift Channel ⏳
