Hungary has been trying to interfere in Ukraine's internal affairs in dozens of different ways - Zelensky

“There is nothing wrong with respecting each other. This is the way to solve problems. Let's put it this way: Budapest has tried to interfere in Ukrainian internal affairs in dozens of different ways. You haven't heard about it. We stopped the illegal issuance of passports in Transcarpathia even before the war. We solved most cases quietly, among ourselves,” President Volodymyr Zelensky told Válasz Online.

Speaking about the agent network of the Hungarian intelligence, which was exposed in early May, the president added that it had been built since 2021 and military questions were raised in 2024-25. The last transfer of information took place on March 25 this year.

“Why are we publicizing this case? We have other photos and videos of various meetings organized by the Hungarian Military National Security Service (KNBSZ) on Hungarian territory, which we will also make public if necessary. I don't want to threaten anyone, but in fact everything is at our disposal. Including how KNBSZ paid its agent. We have documented everything,” he said.

According to him, the Hungarians wanted information about the deployment of elements of air defense systems and vulnerable places in the Ukrainian-Hungarian border region.

“There were specific questions on their phones - we have them too: in eleven points, among other things, they asked what the people of Transcarpathia would say about the presence of Hungarian peacekeepers. And also about where our various military units are stationed. How should one respond to this in a war situation? I am not claiming that Budapest wants something, but if it doesn't, for whom is it gathering information?”, - Zelenky emphasized.

He asked NATO decision-makers if they asked the Hungarians to collect such data, they replied that they did not. Zelensky emphasized that he blames the Hungarian military national security service, not Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban.
