Hungarian Foreign Minister: Ukraine’s joining NATO carries the risk of World War III
In an interview with the announcement of his country’s opposition to the sending of EU military advisors to Ukraine, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Hungary said about the issue of Ukraine joining NATO that this issue carries the risk of a direct conflict between Russia and NATO and the start of World War III.
According to Isna, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Hungary “Peter Ciarto” stated in an interview that the joining of Ukraine to NATO is not on the agenda of Hungary, because this issue will mean a direct confrontation between this Western military alliance and Russia and will lead to the occurrence of World War III will begin.
Ukraine’s membership in NATO
The Sputnik News agency reported that Ciarto told Novosti that since the beginning of the Ukraine war, Budapest has set red lines, and one of them is that “we need to do the best and the most that we can to avoid any direct confrontation between NATO.” And Russia should be prevented.”
Siarto said: Therefore, if Ukraine becomes a member of NATO, it will mean a direct confrontation between NATO and Russia and start the third world war. We really need to avoid this. That is why such a thing is not on our agenda.
If Ukraine becomes a member of NATO, it will mean a direct confrontation between NATO and Russia and start the third world warAccording to the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Hungary, most of his colleagues in NATO countries are talking with representatives of Ukraine about Ukraine’s possible membership in NATO, but they admit in private circles that this issue is undeniable.
Mark Rutte, the new NATO Secretary General, visited Ukraine in early October. During this trip, he said that the day will come when Ukraine will become a member of NATO and Russia will not have the right to oppose it. However, he did not mention any specific time frame for the possible invitation of Ukraine to NATO, which requires a universal decision by all members of this alliance.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has said that Ukraine’s possible membership in NATO is a threat to Russia’s security. He emphasized that the dangers of Kiev joining this coalition is one of the reasons for Russia’s “special military operations” against Ukraine.
Dispatch of EU military advisors to Ukraine
In an interview with the M1 TV channel, this high-ranking Hungarian diplomat also opposed the plan of some European Union countries to send military advisers to Ukraine due to the threat of deteriorating conditions and said: “When the European Union started training Ukrainian soldiers, we constructively We refused it. We do not agree with this operation and consider it dangerous. But we did not stop others from doing it. But now, the proposal to send a delegation of military advisors from the European Union as part of this operation is discussed. This is way beyond our red line. We have announced that we do not consider sending EU military advisers to Kiev acceptable. We consider it very dangerous and cannot support it.
Changes in Russia’s nuclear doctrine
Ciarto also said about the change in Russia’s nuclear doctrine that the perceived dangers would not exist if the war in Ukraine ends.
We have announced that we do not consider sending EU military advisers to Kiev acceptableEarlier, at the meeting of the Russian Security Council on nuclear deterrence, Putin proposed a dialogue on the issue of revising and reforming Russia’s political principles in the field of nuclear deterrence.
He said that Russia considers the right to use nuclear weapons when its territory is invaded, including if the enemy uses conventional weapons, a vital threat to its national sovereignty and independence.
Sziarto said that such events are, in principle, arguments in line with Hungary’s position on the necessity of a peaceful resolution of the war in Ukraine, because if this war ends, such dangers will be eliminated.
According to him, the international community should pay more attention to finding a diplomatic solution to this conflict, because its solution is definitely not on the battlefield.
