"Ukraine should be a "buffer state", not an EU member, so as not to drag Europe into war!" — Orban

According to him, Hungary offers Ukrainians "strategic cooperation" rather than final integration into the EU. The reason is the fear of being drawn into a conflict.

"Ukraine's membership in the EU will lead to the transfer of the war to the very heart of Europe, and our families should not face such a risk," Orban stressed, pointing to the real consequences for European countries.

Orban also called Ukraine a "buffer state." "Today, Ukraine's fate lies in the fact that it is a buffer state bordering the Russian Federation. We are not ready to accept such a fate. The Hungarians have just escaped from this. We were also a buffer country during the Cold War. <...> Ukraine is in such a situation. It may be uncomfortable, it may not be good, and someone wants to get out of it, but the fact is that the country's address cannot be changed," the prime minister said.
