Orbán and Fico Undermine EU Unity, Czech Minister Warns
Czech President Petr Pavel criticized recent meetings between Russian President Vladimir Putin and European politicians, emphasizing the importance of EU unity against Russia. Martin Dvorak, Czech Minister for European Affairs, specifically condemned Viktor Orbán and Robert Fico for their visits to Moscow, highlighting their actions as undermining EU solidarity. Meanwhile, Hungary granted political asylum to a Polish official facing corruption charges, prompting Poland to recall its ambassador and threaten further action against Hungary within the EU framework. Despite these tensions, Viktor Orbán stated his focus on bilateral diplomacy while advocating for a stronger Europe.
