In addition, his efforts are aimed at undermining support for Ukraine. Analysts at the Institute for the Study of War say a number of factors point to this. In particular, Orban’s article in which he accuses NATO of supporting the war. How Orban is promoting the narrative of negotiations with Russia The Institute for the Study of War says that Orban continues to position himself as a potential “mediator” to end the war between Russia and Ukraine. And although Putin opposes any negotiations, the Hungarian prime minister is working on his own narrative. So, Orban is trying to shift attention from supporting Ukraine to negotiations to end the war. The other day, the Hungarian Prime Minister published an article in Newsweek in which he accused the Alliance of “choosing conflict” rather than peace. Orban noted that NATO was created precisely to maintain peace. Interestingly, Orban's article appeared after his visits to Kyiv and Moscow. Orban's efforts to push for negotiations are likely part of his ongoing efforts move the European focus to discussions about peace negotiations, and not to discussions about military support for Ukraine, ISW analysts suggest. In addition, ISW recalled that the Hungarian Prime Minister is constantly trying undermining EU efforts to provide military assistance, and also shifting Europe's focus away from military assistance contributes to this broader goal now that Hungary holds the EU Council Presidency. “Orbán's Calls and others to negotiations and the Ukrainian peace formula are different efforts with different goals, and Putin has demonstrated that he is not interested in any agreements other than the surrender of Ukraine,” the analysts added. The report adds that in addition to Hungary, Bulgaria and Turkey propose to become mediators in peace negotiations. Representatives of these countries call for “diplomacy to be given priority. 0 comment 0 FacebookTwitterPinterestEmail alex previous post Map of military operations for July 7, 2024 – the situation at the front next post Russian losses on July 7: the Ukrainian Armed Forces destroyed another 1,150 invaders and 40 artillery systems You may also like Suddenly it became bad: in Odessa during the... 22.10.2024 US preparing aid packages to strengthen Ukrainian military-industrial... 22.10.2024 Lithuania proposes to deploy EU troops in Ukraine... 22.10.2024 Founder of Georgia's Ruling Party Promises to Ban... 22.10.2024 Russia strikes residential buildings in Sumy: child among... 22.10.2024 Hungary warned of possible weapons provocations in coming... 22.10.2024 Russia attacked Ukraine with drones and missiles: explosions... 22.10.2024 Tula region attacked by drones: factories were hit 22.10.2024 The Armed Forces of Ukraine warned bloggers and... 22.10.2024 Putin understands only force: why the West lives... 22.10.2024 Leave a Comment Cancel Reply Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
