Kremlin Weighs in on Hungary’s Orban Defeat
(MENAFN) The Kremlin acknowledged Monday the sweeping defeat of longtime ally Viktor Orban in Hungary's parliamentary elections, offering a measured response that stopped well short of alarm while signaling Moscow's intent to maintain working relations with the incoming leadership.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov delivered the understated reaction to reporters, stating: "Hungary has made its choice. We respect that choice."
Peskov noted that Russia remains committed to cultivating constructive ties with Hungary as it does with other European nations, pointing to signals from the new leadership suggesting an openness to dialogue.
"We look forward to continuing our very pragmatic contacts with the new Hungarian leadership," he said.
The comments mark a notably composed response from Moscow, given that outgoing Prime Minister Orban had long served as one of the Kremlin's most reliable voices within the European Union — frequently blocking or softening EU measures targeting Russia over its war in Ukraine.
