Orbán Slams EU's War Stance at CPAC Hungary

Budapest, Hungary – May 29, 2025 – Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán used his appearance at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) Hungary 2025 to sharply criticize the European Union's approach to the war in Ukraine. He stated, "Brussels is stuck in the war," contrasting this with an alleged shift towards peace by the United States. Orbán's speech focused on the EU's increasing debt and centralization, advocating for a different path for Europe. The video of the speech, released by the Hungarian government, has already garnered significant attention online. Orbán's comments are likely to fuel further debate within the EU on its approach to the conflict in Ukraine and its broader relationship with Hungary.
