Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has accused Brussels and Kyiv of pursuing a political and strategic agenda that threatens Hungary’s sovereignty, claiming a reported plan to fast-track Ukraine’s European Union membership is effectively aimed at undermining his government.
Writing on X, Orbán said what he described as a “five-point Zelenskyy plan” — reportedly published by Politico — envisages Ukraine joining the EU as early as 2027.
The Hungarian leader portrayed the alleged proposal as a direct challenge to Budapest.
“The Brusselian elite's official publication, Politico, has published Brussels’ and Kyiv’s latest war plan, the five-point Zelenskyy plan,” Orbán wrote. “They have decided that Ukraine will be admitted to the Union as early as 2027.”
Orbán claimed the reported initiative would override the will of Hungarian voters and destabilise his administration.
“This new plan is an open declaration of war against Hungary,” he said, adding that EU leaders “disregard the decision of the Hungarian people and are determined to remove the Hungarian government by any means necessary.”
The Hungarian prime minister further alleged that Brussels is backing Hungary’s opposition Tisza Party to eliminate Budapest’s ability to block EU decisions related to the war in Ukraine.
“They want the Tisza Party to come to power, because then there would be no more veto, no more resistance, and no more staying out of their conflict,” Orbán said.
Framing the issue as a domestic political battle ahead of upcoming elections, Orbán urged Hungarian voters to support his ruling Fidesz party. “This April, at the ballot box, Hungarians must stop them,” he wrote. “Fidesz is the only force standing between Hungary and Brusselian rule, and the only guarantee of Hungarian sovereignty.”
