Just sad...

10 years ago

Greetings, all! With all the commotion about Russia and the Ukraine I had to look up what Hungary's stance was in all this. After all Hungary has been fairly quiet not that a small country of 10 million or so would sway World opinion. It seems the Hungarian government with Mr Orban in the front has opposed any economic sanctions against Russia. Of course the country is getting their natural gas from them via Ukraine or otherwise and got a loan to refurbish their nuclear plant not to mention Hungary's export/trading but that is really doesn't seem to be as great as once Hungary hoped. . So it seems that while the actual Russian occupation of Hungary is over Russia still got the "economic leash" around Hungary's neck. Truly sad but it seems to be the reality of the day!
