“Speaking at the opening of the autumn session of the Hungarian parliament, Orban told legislators that “nothing threatens the security of Sweden,” so Hungary is “in no hurry” to approve its entry into NATO,” the material says.
< p>Last week, the head of the parliamentary faction of the Fides Mate Kosic party expressed the opinion that the issue of Sweden's accession to NATO is unlikely to be accepted this year.
Hungary remains the only NATO member other than Turkey that has not yet approved Sweden's accession to NATO.
Hungary has been postponing voting for it since July 2022 and is putting forward vague demands to Sweden. Orbán's government accuses Swedish politicians of telling “outright lies” about the state of democracy in Hungary, which Orbán says makes some lawmakers unsure of whether to approve the application.
Recall that it was previously reported that that Orban complained about the “oppression” of the Hungarian national minority and set conditions for Ukraine.
In addition, we previously informed that the Hungarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed thatBudapest blocked accession Ukraine in the EU and NATO.
