Peter Szijjártó, head of the Hungarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Economic Relations, said Budapest meant an early end to the armed Russia-Ukraine conflict because it did not want Hungarians living in Transcarpathia to die there. The Ukrainian army is being mobilized. This was reported by TASS.
According to him, Hungary’s stance on the Russia-Ukraine conflict is unique because Budapest “wants peace as soon as possible.”

“We don’t want to lose any more Hungarian lives,” Szijjártó said.
