Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban tried to make an enemy of Ukraine and President Volodymyr Zelensky, but it did not work.

Hungarian opposition politician, Mayor of Budapest Gergely Karácsony, spoke about this in an interview with "European Truth".

In his opinion, Orbán always needs an "enemy" who can be blamed for "things going wrong."

"Otherwise, they will have to admit that they are not managing the country well," Gergely Karácsony said.

So, according to the politician, Orban tried to position Zelensky as his opponent, but it did not work.

"Therefore, in one of his last speeches, on the contrary, he compared Zelensky with one of our martyrs, Imre Nady, who was executed after the 1956 revolution under pressure from Russia. Because Orban understood that Ukraine does not work as an enemy. So he again chose old enemies for this role - Brussels and sanctions, despite the fact that he voted for these sanctions," Gergely Karácsony noted.

The politician added that Orbán can simultaneously make statements that contradict each other completely. For example, he personally voted for sanctions in the EU, and then launched an incredibly expensive government advertising campaign and plastered the entire country with anti-sanctions billboards.
