President Volodymyr Zelensky believes that the behavior of Hungary and its relations with Russia do not correspond to the status of a NATO ally.

He said this in an interview with Finnish, Swedish, Danish, and Norwegian journalists.

“How to resolve the dispute with Budapest? The question is only Budapest’s desire. It seems to me that there is a political entanglement of the political elites in Hungary. It is a very strange situation, can a NATO country be for Russia and against NATO?” Zelenskyy said.

President Zelensky has asserted that it is impossible for a nation to be an ally of NATO while simultaneously developing a partnership with a country that calls the organization an adversary.

“I believe that this is inappropriate behavior. I am speaking my subjective opinion. An ally is not just a word; it is a meaning. It is a union of states with the same view on security, on values. They can treat certain moments differently, but there is an alliance agreement, which protects each other and the respective values.And if all the allies say that Russia calls us an enemy, we must put Russia in its place; then one country cannot say – no, Russia is our ally. This cannot be like that. So you are no longer an ally of the Alliance. And therefore, if you de jure ally but de facto working against it, you should not advise Ukraine to join NATO or not. And you should not create obstacles,” Zelensky said.
