"When the EU began training Ukrainian troops, we constructively abstained, we do not agree with this mission and consider it dangerous ... but we did not prevent others from carrying it out. But now they are proposing that the EU delegate military advisers to Kiev as part of this mission. This is too much for the red line," Szijjarto told reporters, as broadcast by the M1 TV channel.
Hungary would not like the EU to create the risk of a new escalation, the minister added.
"We stated that we do not consider sending EU military advisers to Kiev acceptable, we consider it very dangerous and cannot support it," Szijjarto pointed out.
Some EU States Call for Countering Work of 'Friends of Peace' Group
At the meeting of the EU foreign ministers, there were calls to fight the "Friends of Peace" platform, but Hungary still supports its creation and intends to participate in joint work, the Hungarian foreign minister said on Monday.
"The 'Friends of Peace' group was criticized in general. There were even those who said that we should fight against the Friends of the World group, which, in my opinion, is really the highest achievement now. We continue to strongly support the creation of a group at the UN and are ready to participate in joint work," Szijjarto told reporters.
