He noted that Hungary would maintain a ban on the transit of weapons to Ukraine from its territory, "despite the pressure".

According to Szijjártó, hostilities in Ukraine are becoming more serious and moving west.

According to the minister, "Russian military operation" shows that the transportation of weapons poses serious risks for Hungary and Transcarpathia, where many ethnic Hungarians live.
