Viktor Orban: We must say 'no' to proposals that may lead to air war with Russia

"We must prevent ourselves from getting dragged into a conflict of war, and we must say 'no' to proposals that may lead to an air war with Russia," Prime Minister of Hungary Viktor Orban stated in a video message sent to the news agency MTI. 

"Proposals seeking to extend sanctions against the Russian aggression to the energy sector and thus put Hungary in a difficult, perhaps impossible position must be prevented," Orban said.

"We must protect Hungary's national interests, and we must prevail in Brussels for the next two days," he added.

EU leaders will have a two-day meeting in Brussels on Thursday and Friday to discuss further steps and sanctions against Russia because of the Russia-Ukraine conflict that broke out almost a month ago.
