Hungarian Prime Minister Orban said in Budapest on the 20th local time that Western Europe is in deep crisis. He cited examples such as the German Chancellor announcing an end to welfare systems, energy prices soaring in France, and the tragic agreement reached between the EU and the US. Former ECB President Draghi also believes that Europe is heading towards collapse. Orban stated that Hungary should not blindly follow Western practices, otherwise it will also end up on this path of failure. Orban said that Hungary should follow its own path and build its own economy. Hungary rejects the proposals put forward by the EU, and if they choose the EU's proposals, Hungary's funds will flow towards Ukraine. Furthermore, Orban reiterated that Ukraine will not become a member of the EU.
