The news about the meeting between the head of state Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban during the inauguration ceremony of the president-elect of Argentina shook the Ukrainian public. The president finally admitted what he talked about with Putin's henchman.
What did Zelenskyy say to Orban
According to the Ukrainian leader, during a conversation with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, he asked him to name at least one reason why official Budapest blocks our country's membership in the EU.
Interestingly, the president is still waiting for the answer from the Hungarian prime minister.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy also drew attention to the fact that this was not a planned meeting.
We had a dialogue. This is true. I think that we need to organize a constructive meeting between our states, because we have common borders, we are neighbors and we need to talk.
As the head of state notes, one of the most important topics he had time to discuss with Viktor Orbán was that starting a constructive dialogue to solve urgent problems quickly is essential.
That's why we just need to meet. I showed him my positive attitude towards this idea. Second. I think I am right and I made it clear to him that he has no reason to block Ukraine's membership in the European Union. I asked him to give me at least one reason. Not three, not five, not ten, but only one reason and I am waiting for an answer, Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.
Orban continues to block Ukraine's accession to the EU
The leader of Hungary, Viktor Orban, known for his pro-Russian position, during the parliamentary debate on the draft resolution on Ukraine, invented a new "explanation" for why he is blocking the start of negotiations on Kyiv's accession to the EU.
The accession of Ukraine under the accelerated procedure does not meet the interests of either Hungary or the EU. If EU rules are not taken seriously, the European Union will cease to exist, Orbán cynically lies.
It is worth noting that his statement was made after the conversation with Zelenskyy.
