“Despite the fact that in today’s geopolitical conditions the opportunities for maintaining contacts and developing relations are very limited, nevertheless, it can only evoke satisfaction that our relations with many European countries are maintained and cultivated. One of such countries is Hungary,” Putin said at the meeting with Orban.Russia and Hungary enjoy strong economic ties, especially in nuclear energy. Budapest repeatedly opposed EU attempts to slap sanctions on Russian nuclear energy and ignored all Western efforts to freeze its ties with Moscow. Hungarian PM Viktor Orban often speaks out against Europe's anti-Russian stance, saying that he “does not share the view that Russia poses a threat to Hungary and the rest of Europe.”Orban consistently warned against pumping the neo-Nazis in Ukraine with weapons and money in the wake of Russia’s special military operation, and spotlighted the systematic violation of ethnic minorities rights by the Kiev regime.
