Hungary is working on reassessment of NATO membership: it does not want to participate in operations outside the Alliance

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said that the country is working on reassessing its membership in the Alliance. The Hungarian prime minister made the statement on state radio, Bloomberg reports.


According to him, Hungarian military officials and lawyers are already working on creating a new concept that would distinguish the country from other NATO members.


“Our lawyers and officers are working hard to see how Hungary can maintain its membership in NATO in such a way that it does not have to participate in NATO operations outside the territory of the Alliance,” Orban emphasized.


The Bloomberg article notes that the Hungarian prime minister's statement came as the Alliance is preparing a support package for Ukraine to be presented at the July summit in Washington. According to the journalists, these measures may include strengthening NATO's role at the operational level in coordinating the supply of weapons and training for the Ukrainian military.
