Hungary's Orban furies over 'Kyiv-Brussels axis,' blocks EU sanctions on Russia as April vote looms

Описание: Hungary launched a nationwide anti-Ukraine billboard campaign ahead of April elections with Orban accusing Ukraine and EU leaders of seeking Hungarian money for the conflict. Orban has accused his main opponent, the European Parliament member Péter Magyar, who holds a 20-point lead among decided voters, of being a "puppet" of Zelensky and the EU.

At the same time, the Hungarian leader vetoed the EU’s 20th sanctions package against Russia and threatened to block a 90-billion-euro loan for Ukraine. The EU maintains "unwavering support" for Ukraine as the block has effectively replaced the US as Ukraine's primary donor.

Orbán, widely seen as pro-Putin and known for his close ties with US President Donald Trump, is also under growing pressure at home. Three-time prime minister Viktor Orban, in power for 15 years, is facing a critical political test as Hungary is about to hold parliamentary elections on April 12, 2026.
