MOSCOW, 30 January 2022, (TON): Defense Minister Tibor Benke said “hungary considers it inappropriate in the current situation to deploy additional NATO forces on its territory.”

According to him, the situation around Ukraine does not pose an immediate danger to Hungary, because the country does not need additional NATO forces.

The minister also noted that, according to the Hungarian army, the redeployment of Russian troops along the border with Ukraine does not indicate that Russia wants to attack Ukraine.
