The European Commission has condemned Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s apparent threat to use violence against Hungarian leader Viktor Orbán, amid escalating tensions between Budapest and Kyiv over Ukraine’s failure to repair a critical oil pipeline.

      as I said in one of the other federated posts:

      Utter bullshit that anybody would expect Ukraine to fix Russian pipeline supplying Russian allies and thus funding Russia’s war against Ukraine.

      Humans can’t help but elect/allow imbeciles into positions of power.

    Hungary and Slovak are such pathetic bullies, able to dish it out but not take it.

    Not that I think Zelensky was right to vent his frustration like that, but the man is dealing with a fucking invasion and his allies are being stalled by russian cronies. Some anger is understandable.

      Orban already said and did much worse against Ukraine. Orban’s actions in the EU have real consequences on the war… Truly a scumbag of a politician, Hungarians should feel ashamed for electing him.

    I got banned from the Reddit when I said something similar than Zelenskyy. I would personally punch Orban in his face if I could.
