The Hungarian Embassy in Ukraine is outraged by the statements of Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine (NSDC) Oleksiy Danilov that Hungary was warned by Russia in advance about the attack on Ukraine, and is awaiting explanations from the competent leaders of Ukraine.

“The Embassy of Hungary in Ukraine is outraged by the statements made by NSDC Oleksiy Danilov on May 2, 2022 during a television marathon regarding our homeland. These statements about Hungary contain accusations that are false and unfounded, as well as incite hatred against the Hungarian people and Hungary in war-torn Ukrainian public opinion”, - the embassy said.

The department called on Danilov to withdraw his statements.

“We reject and condemn in the strongest possible terms the false slanders against Hungary and the intentions behind them. We also call on Mr. Danilov to withdraw his statements!”, - reads the statement of Embassy.
