EU Draft Budget Serves Kiev's Interests: Hungary
TEHRAN (Tasnim) - Brussels has prepared a seven-year budget plan that serves Ukraine's military interests, but Hungary has no desire to support Kiev's army, Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said.
"Szijjarto said Brussels has prepared a 7-year budget that is 'much more about Ukraine than about the European Union.' Instead of tackling Europe’s real challenges: competitiveness, energy security, and economic growth ‘they want to finance the Ukrainian army and the Ukrainian state’," Hungary's international spokesperson Zoltan Kovacs wrote on X, TASS reported.
According to Szijjarto, Brussels is preparing for war and wants Europeans to be the ones to cover it. The minister pointed out that Hungary does not want to use its taxpayers' money to fund the Ukrainian army.
