Hungary is ready to provide Moscow and Kiev with a platform for talks aimed at settling their conflict, Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto has said.
His comments followed Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s ‘peace mission’ in which he visited Ukraine, Russia, China, and the US in a bid to end the hostilities.
In an interview with RIA Novosti published on Thursday, Szijjarto recalled that a few days after the outbreak of hostilities in February 2022, Budapest tried to encourage direct Russia-Ukraine peace negotiations by contacting both Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and Andrey Yermak, Vladimir Zelensky’s chief of staff.
