Why put Hungary in scare quotes? It's right wing nationalist and undermining our (Europe's) defence against the ultrafascist Russian hordes invading from the East. It's not the same.
No. I don't care if Hungary doesn't want to defend Europe, but it shouldn't get in the way of others doing do. It shouldn't block sanctions, it shouldn't block funds going to Ukraine. Europe is under attack and Hungary is implicitly helping Russia.
Then you meant to say Ukraine, not Europe. It is not like Russia is going to attempt to conquer Europe, is it? Additionally, there are historical reasons for what is going on between Russia and Ukraine. I am sure you have heard of it, or perhaps have a distorted view of it. It is between Ukraine and Russia. Ukraine is not even part of EU. The EU has nothing to worry about. We might though.
No, not at all. I meant to say Europe. The attack on Ukraine is an attack on Europe. I meant exactly what I said.
> Additionally, there are historical reasons for what is going on between Russia and Ukraine
And there are historical reasons why Europe cares about what is going on between Russia and Ukraine.
Sorry but not only Russia gets to have "historical reasons" and "interests". We all do. Europe does too. Sorry if that upsets you and think Russia is the main character.
And sadly Russia's attacks on Europe are not limited to Ukraine. For example they have been doing chemical attacks in the UK before the full scale invasion of Ukraine.
> It is not like Russia is going to attempt to conquer Europe, is it?
It doesn't have to in order to be a threat to Europe. That's the thing about power.
> We might though
Who's "we"?
What's sad is how cucked the Hungarians are. Is there a more tragic country? Backed the wrong horse 1914-18, then again 39-45, then again in the cold war, and now again during the Russian invasion of Ukraine. What a tragic place. Literally always on the wrong side of history. I guess if there was ever any doubt that the Russian invasion of Ukraine is wrong, it's that Hungary supports said invasion. Hey, but it also means it will fail, because everything Hungary seems to touch turns to shit :)
This statement is an unnecessary, and offensive generalization. Many Hungarians do not agree with Orbán at all. Read more about "Magyar Péter".
> it's that Hungary supports said invasion.
It does not.
> Hey, but it also means it will fail, because everything Hungary seems to touch turns to shit :)
So you have nothing to worry about, then. Why even bother crying about Hungary if you genuinely believe this? I highly doubt you genuinely believe it, otherwise you would not have been crying about it. :) And if you do not believe it, then it is just yet another insult coming from you. Not surprised though, based on your comments. You seem to have made this account only to argue politics and shill your own master. We are on a tech forum, but God speed.
You are trolling anyway and throwing standard fascist claims around about shilling and masters, whilst of course advocating for total non-intervention in Ukraine and letting Russia rape the country at its leisure. Also engaging since the beginning in bad faith by arguing no points, but just picking out individual words that you disagree with. You are a troll, but though I'm not sure you're aware of it, which is surely much sadder.
Also: It's not a tech forum, there's lots of non-tech content here.
> whilst of course advocating for total non-intervention in Ukraine and letting Russia rape the country at its leisure.
Non-interventionism is probably the be the way to go about it. What should we do? Nuke Russia? Send Ukraine weapons? They are known for grabbing men off the streets and put them at the frontline. Sounds... amazing. There is a reason for why Telegram rooms exist that tell you which areas to avoid inb4 you get inscribed / enlisted / whatever you want to call it.
Do you think Ukraine is going to win? With or without aid? What happens if they win? What happens if they lose? Why is Zelensky so against peace talks? He had plenty of opportunities to choose peace. He did not do so. He recruits random young men at gunpoint. Zelensky is known to eliminate the opposition, too. What do you think, is he a good person?
Just because I disagree with some things that you say, that does not make me a troll. Not everyone who disagrees with you is a troll.
What even is the point of this discussion?

Am I missing a joke here? Putin is quite literally involved in a war of conquest he started in the European continent. America is, as usual, not coming to help anytime soon (America may eventually, but right now the government looks more likely to cheer Putin on than help Europe prevent this).
