Last week the Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has said that Europe is now in the intermediate stage of preparing for war.
Orban told Kossuth Radio that Europe is being drawn into the war in Ukraine and that they are preparing for war with Russia.
Orban said there is continuous signs that NATO and the EU is readying for conflict and that “going to war does not happen in one step.”
He said, “There are three stages: discussion, preparation and destruction.
“Now we are finishing the discussion and we are in the preparation stage. We are inches away from destruction.”
He believes that over the past week there has been two developments that Europe is “approaching war.”
Orban said there “were talks between France and Ukraine about allowing French military instructors to go to Ukraine” to train Ukrainian troops.
The Hungarian Prime Minister said that should “the French go for this, it will be a new level” of EU and NATO involvement.
