<\/p>\nThe Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orban has claimed that the EU is shifting its economy to reach full combat readiness within five years.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Speaking at an anti-war rally, Orban claimed that the European Union was preparing for war with Russia and aims to be fully ready by 2030. He added that the bloc was already making moves toward a direct military confrontation.<\/p>\n
He described a four-step process that typically leads to war: breaking off diplomatic relations, imposing sanctions, ending economic cooperation, and finally engaging in armed conflict. He said that most of these steps have already been taken.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is the official European Union position that by 2030 it must be ready for war<\/em>,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n He also said that European countries are moving toward a \u201cwar economy<\/em>.\u201d According to Orban, some EU member states are already shifting their transport and industrial sectors to support weapons production.<\/p>\n The prime minister emphasized Budapest\u2019s opposition to war. \u201cHungary\u2019s task at the same time is to keep Europe from going to war<\/em>,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n Orban has repeatedly voiced strong criticism of the EU\u2019s stance on the Ukraine conflict. Hungary has consistently opposed sanctions on Russia, as well as military aid to Kiev and called for peace negotiations instead of escalation.<\/p>\n The warning echoed recent remarks by Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic and German Defence Minister Boris Pistorius, who have both suggested that a Europe-Russia confrontation is increasingly plausible in the coming years.<\/p>\n Despite increasingly aggressive rhetoric from some EU and NATO member states toward Russia, no actor has explicitly articulated an intent to go to war. Recently, NATO Military Committee chair Admiral Giuseppe Cavo Dragone told Financial Times<\/em> that the bloc is studying options for a more aggressive posture toward Russia, including the notion that a pre-emptive strike could be viewed as a defensive measure.<\/p>\n The EU has increasingly used the alleged \u2018Russian threat\u2019 to justify massive military spending hikes, such as Brussels\u2019 \u20ac800 billion ReArm Europe plan and NATO members\u2019 pledge to raise defence spending to 5% of GDP.<\/p>\n Russian President Vladimir Putin has said Moscow has no plans to fight either the EU or NATO, adding that it would respond if Western nations launched a war against Russia.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n yogaesoteric <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orban has claimed that the EU is shifting its economy to reach full combat readiness within five years.
