US President Donald Trump contacted Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban on Monday following meetings with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and European Union leaders. The call focused on urging Orban to lift his veto on Ukraine's accession talks with the EU, a move that has been a point of contention. Orban, a longstanding ally of Trump, declined to change his stance, emphasizing on social media that Ukraine's EU membership does not guarantee security. In a related development, Zelenskiy appeared to mock Hungary over attacks on the Druzhba oil pipeline, which supplies Hungary and Slovakia, an incident Ukraine has been accused of. Hungary's Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto condemned Zelenskiy's remarks and accused Ukraine of threatening Hungary's energy security, demanding an end to the attacks. Zelenskiy later stated that the continuation of the 'friendship' between Ukraine and Hungary depends on Hungary's position regarding EU accession.
