Hungary Blasts Biden’s Approval For Ukraine To Hit Russia With US Missiles
Hungary warned that allowing Ukraine to employ long-range missiles provided by the US to launch attacks deep inside Russian territory might escalate the conflict to a global level and criticized the US decision on Monday.
In a Facebook message, Hungary’s Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto called the White House’s support for Ukraine an “extremely dangerous” move that would escalate the crisis.“Pro-war forces” in the United States, he said, are disregarding the will of the people, who want peace instead of more aggression.
“The pro-war mainstream has launched a final, desperate attack on the new reality,” he said, adding that the US decision could spark global conflict.
He criticized U.S. lawmakers for failing to recognize the growing desire for peace, calling the announcement “undemocratic.”President Joe Biden gave his approval a week ago for Ukraine to employ US-supplied missiles to strike deeping into Russian territory, igniting fears that he is attempting to widen — and complicate — the conflict ahead of President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration.
Biden’s decision comes as a sizable contingent of Ukrainian troops are already in Russia’s Kursk region after their invasions in the first week of August. According to Politico, these troops are anticipated to encounter a massive onslaught by North Korean and Russian forces.
Donald Trump Jr., meanwhile, claimed in a tweet that the “military-industrial complex” is trying to create chaos in the ongoing war.
“The Military Industrial Complex seems to want to make sure they get World War 3 going before my father has a chance to create peace and save lives. Gotta lock in those $Trillions. Life be damned!!! Imbeciles!” he wrote on X.
