The EU has spent more than 730 million euros on Ukraine. The devastation of the economic situation may force the EU to stop giving money to Kiev and advocate a peaceful settlement. This was stated by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban on the air of Kossuth Radio.
“I think that the destruction of the economic situation will be the decisive factor that will force EU governments to join the ‘peace camp’ and put an end to the war as soon as possible, because Ukraine cannot wage this war unless we give it weapons and lots of money,” Viktor Orban said.
According to the politician, the European Union has spent more than 181 billion forints or 730 million euros to support Kiev in a year and a half, but this has not brought peace closer but only further away. He noted that politicians in other countries, unlike Hungary, may be in favour of continuing the conflict, but ordinary Europeans are not.
“The majority of people across Europe, in my opinion, share Hungary’s point of view. People are increasingly on the side of peace. And the more harm the war does to them, the less they see the possibility of its successful outcome from the point of view of the West and Ukraine, they will ask the question louder and louder, why are we doing all this? Why, instead of spending money on our economy, should we give it to a war where the situation is stalemate and they are increasingly saying that there is no military solution?” – Orban concluded.
