The European Union has decided to move its upcoming meetings of foreign and defense ministers from Budapest to Brussels, a move criticized by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, who has been accused of undermining EU unity on the war in Ukraine. EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell cited Orbán's recent comments labeling the EU's stance as 'pro-war' and his independent diplomacy with Moscow as reasons for this decision. Borrell emphasized that nearly all EU member states, except Slovakia, condemned Hungary's actions, which he described as needing consequences. This relocation serves as a symbolic reprimand to Hungary, coinciding with its presidency of the EU Council. The decision has sparked mixed reactions among EU nations, with some, like Luxembourg, opposing the boycott and advocating for dialogue in Budapest. Nevertheless, the EU aims to maintain a united front against Russian aggression, with Borrell asserting that 'the only one who is pro-war is Putin.'
