00:00Prime Minister Orbán has made it clear that Hungary will not participate in these NATO
00:12efforts.
00:14And I accept this position.
00:18And I'm glad that today the Prime Minister and I have agreed on modalities for Hungary's
00:23non-participation in NATO support to Ukraine.
00:28No Hungarian personnel will take part in these activities, and no Hungarian funds will be
00:34used to support them.
00:37At the same time, the Prime Minister has assured me that Hungary will not oppose these efforts,
00:44enabling other Allies to move forward.
00:46It's not a NATO obligation to participate in all NATO missions and operations or activities,
00:54as long as all NATO Allies adhere to the core obligations in the Washington Treaty, our
01:00collective defence, our security guarantees.
