Orban: Time has come to switch from war to peace

EFE/IGOR KOVALENKO

Hungarian Prime Minister Victor Orban stated on Friday that US President-elect Donald Trump's victory will have a profound impact on the situation in Europe, also saying that it can't expect to finance the conflict in Ukraine alone and that the time has come to shift to a more peaceful approach.

While speaking to Kossuth Radio Orban said: "There are those who want to continue sending incredible amounts of money to this generally lost war. But at the same time, the number of those who are cautiously thinking about the need to adapt to the new situation is growing,"

This comes after Trump's criticisms of the amount of money that Washington was sending to Ukraine, also saying he plans to end the Ukraine crisis even before his inauguration. The Kremlin later called that assessment "somewhat of an exaggeration" though noting that Moscow remembers his intention for a quick resolution to the crisis.
