Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has called on the European Union to impose sanctions against Ukrainian officials responsible for the death of József Sebestyén, an ethnic Hungarian and EU citizen. Sebestyén was reportedly beaten to death during forced military conscription in Ukraine's Transcarpathian (Zakarpattia) region. Orbán described the incident as an example of state-led brutality and lawlessness, emphasizing that such actions cannot go unanswered, especially when involving an EU citizen. Hungary plans to raise the issue at the next EU meeting and has specifically demanded sanctions against three employees of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense. Kyiv has denied the allegations, characterizing them as political manipulation, and urged Hungary not to interfere in Ukraine's internal affairs. The dispute highlights tensions between Budapest and Kyiv amid ongoing military conscription efforts in Ukraine.
