Hungarian foreign minister Péter Szijjártó warned against a NATO country getting directly involved in the Russia-Ukraine war.
Hungary, a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization , issued a stark waring on Friday about a new world war with Russia if a country within the military alliance gets directly involved with Ukraine's fight against Moscow.Russian President Vladimir Putin launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. For over two years, Ukraine has been at war fighting to protect its borders from Russian aggression with help mainly from its European allies and the United States.
The foreign minister's comments come after NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg recently proposed a 100 billion euro, or $107 billion, five-year package of military aid to Ukraine.Szijjártó called the proposal 'madness' and said Hungary will attempt to distance itself from the plan.
