The Hungarian foreign minister said the following about the war:

"You know, our position is absolutely clear when it comes to the war raging in our neighborhood.

At the same time, due to Western arms shipments, Russia cannot gain much.

Therefore, it will definitely be necessary to negotiate.

If it is going to have to be negotiated anyway, my only question is, why doesn't it take place sooner rather than later?" –
