[Hungarian Prime Minister: No one has been authorized to drag Hungary or the EU into war] On the 14th local time, Hungarian Prime Minister Orban said that European Commission President von der Leyen had previously stated in her "State of the Union Address" in Strasbourg that "Europe is at war", which means that the EU is at war with Russia together with Ukraine. This is a "shocking scandal." Orban said that Hungary is a member of the European Union, but it is not and will not participate in the Russia-Ukraine conflict. "We have not authorized any European leader to drag Hungary or the EU into war." The third largest political group in the European Parliament, "European Patriots", has filed a motion of no confidence in the European Commission led by von der Leyen. European Commission President von der Leyen delivered her annual "State of the Union Address" at the plenary session of the European Parliament held in Strasbourg, France on the 10th. She said that the EU is pushing forward a new round of sanctions against Russia and increasing military and financial support for Ukraine.
