Hungary's April election, which determines Orbán's fate.

Foreign Minister Szijjártó said in a CNN interview:

The war in Ukraine is not our (European) war.

We are not responsible for this war.

We believe that the claims by Ukrainian and European leaders that Ukraine is protecting Europe are completely lies. This is not true.

Russia has not attacked any EU member states. Therefore, the EU does not need protection from Ukraine.

European countries are protected by NATO, not by Ukraine.

The claim that Ukraine is fighting for European countries is wrong. Ukraine is fighting for itself. Their fight is brave, and we deeply respect it.

But this is their war, not ours.

Since Ukraine is defending itself, not us, we owe nothing to Ukraine.

We oppose the idea that "because Ukraine protects us, we owe them a favor."

We advocate peace. We all know that peace can only be achieved through negotiations.

We also know that negotiations require communication channels.

This is why we always keep our communication channels with Russia open.

The EU's ban on importing Russian oil and gas is simply absurd. It is utterly absurd.

Ensuring national energy supply is part of national sovereignty.

Because we have reached an agreement with the United States, we can purchase Russian oil and gas at lower prices.

Leaving the EU has never been on our agenda.

The EU's strength has greatly weakened, and it is no longer a major global player.

The war broke out in Europe, but the EU hasn't even sat at the negotiation table.

We oppose war, migration, and gender ideology, which puts us directly at odds with Brussels.

The European Union is paying unusually high attention to Hungary's election. If we lose, the political agenda of Brussels will be implemented in Hungary. A government change would mean sending Hungarian taxpayers' money to Ukraine.

Hungary will be dragged into the war, receive migrants, and support Ukraine's accession to the EU.

We must ensure that Hungarian taxpayers' money will not be sent to Ukraine.
