On 9 May, the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) announced the exposure of two agents – former soldiers of the Ukrainian army who had allegedly been recruited by Hungarian military intelligence. They were reportedly engaged in espionage activities in Zakarpattia, a region inhabited by several tens of thousands of ethnic Hungarians. Both individuals were detained and charged with high treason, an offence punishable by life imprisonment. Their alleged mission was reportedly to gather information on military facilities and equipment in the region, identify weaknesses in its defences, and monitor the political sentiment of the local population, including potential reactions in the event of an incursion by ‘Hungarian peacekeeping forces’. According to the SBU, Hungarian intelligence was also seeking to obtain data from the front line, including information on losses sustained by the Ukrainian armed forces.
The EU should immediately cut Hungary out until they get a change of government that more aligns with EU principles. Unfortunately, he has made it really hard for any opposition to beat him and has unlimited term limits. I would be fine if it was just a matter of opinion on how negotiations to end the war should go (even if I disagreed), but Orban is outright undermining Ukraine.
