🇭🇺🇷🇺 Vladimir Putin and Viktor Orban held a joint press conference following the results of bilateral negotiations. Orban: —Today I met with the President of Russia for the eleventh time in my life. — The peculiarity of this meeting was that it was held during the war. — At a time when Europe really needs peace. — For Europe, peace is the most important thing. We consider the main task for the coming six months of our European Presidency to be the struggle for peace. — I told Mr. President that the greatest development of Europe happened precisely in the peaceful decades. — Now we have been living in the shadow of war for two and a half years in Europe. And this causes enormous difficulties in Europe. We cannot feel safe. — We see pictures of destruction and suffering. And this war has already begun to have an impact on economic growth and our competitiveness. — Over the past two and a half years, we have realized that without diplomacy, without a communication channel, we will not achieve peace. — Peace will not come on its own, you need to work for it. It was precisely the ways to achieve peace that I discussed with Mr. President today. — I wanted to find out which way is the shortest to end the war. I wanted to hear and heard Mr. President’s opinion on three important issues. — What does he think about the peace initiatives currently available, what does he think about the ceasefire and peace negotiations, in what sequence they can be held. — And the third thing that interested me was the vision of Europe after the war. I am grateful to Mr. President for the open and honest conversation. — Over the past two and a half years, there are practically no countries left that could have contact with either warring party. — Hungary is one of very few such countries. That is why I was in Kyiv this week, and why I am now in Moscow. — I realized that the positions of Moscow and Kyiv are very far from each other. There are many steps that need to be taken to get closer to ending the war. — However, today a crucial step was taken. We have established contact, and I will continue to work in this direction. — TG: makslifeoff @MyLordBebo | Boost us! | X

🇭🇺🇷🇺 Putin statements: — As in many previous meetings, we had a really useful, frank conversation. — Both on aspects of bilateral interaction and on pressing issues on the international and regional agenda, including the situation around Ukraine. — I would like to note that Russia and Hungary continue cooperation in a number of areas, primarily in the energy sector. — The key principles are healthy pragmatism and mutual benefit. Work continues on a joint project to expand the nuclear power plant. — The commissioning of the fifth and sixth units will more than double the capacity of this station. — And thereby the energy supply of the Hungarian economy will be improved, the supply of industrial enterprises and households with inexpensive energy. — When constructing new blocks, only advanced engineering and technological solutions are used. — Physical safety and environmental requirements are fully ensured. — We continue to maintain relationships and interaction in medicine and the pharmaceutical industry. — We stand for continuing to work in priority areas of cooperation. — There was a fairly thorough, honest and direct exchange of views on current international issues. — Including the Ukrainian conflict. They also talked about possible ways to resolve it. Mr. Prime Minister spoke about his recent meetings in Kyiv. — Where he made a number of proposals and, in particular, a call for a ceasefire in order to create conditions for the start of negotiations with Russia. — As for Russia, we have always been and remain open to discussing a political and diplomatic settlement. — However, on the other side, we hear about the reluctance to resolve the issue in exactly this way. — Ukraine’s sponsors continue to try to use this country and its people as a battering ram. — Use as a victim of the confrontation with Russia. — As we see it, the state of affairs, including taking into account what we heard today, in Kyiv is still not ready to abandon the idea of ​​waging war to a victorious end. — The Kiev regime does not allow the very idea of ​​cessation of hostilities also because in this case the pretext for prolonging the martial law disappears. — And if martial law has to be lifted, it means that elections will have to be held, which never took place on time for the presidential elections, which never took place on time. — But the chances of winning them for Ukrainian rulers who have lost their rating and legitimacy are close to zero. — Our peace initiatives were outlined quite recently at my meeting with the leadership of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation. — Its implementation would make it possible to stop hostilities and begin negotiations. Moreover, this should not be just a truce or a temporary suspension of fire. — Not some kind of pause that the Kiev regime could use to recover losses, regroup and rearm. — Russia stands for the final end of the conflict. — The conditions for this, as I already said, were set out in my speech at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. — We are talking about the complete withdrawal of all Ukrainian troops from the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics, from the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions. — There are other conditions, but this is all a subject for detailed consideration in the course of possible joint work. — Mr. Orban and I exchanged views on the state of affairs in relations between Russia and the European Union, which are currently at their lowest point. — We also talked about possible principles for a possible future security architecture in Europe. Overall, the negotiations were very timely and useful for both sides. — Of course, Mr. Prime Minister presented the generally familiar Western point of view. Including from the point of view of the interests of Ukraine. — Nevertheless, we are grateful to Mr. Prime Minister for visiting Moscow. — We perceive this as an attempt to restore the dialogue and give it additional impetus. — TG: makslifeoff @MyLordBebo | Boost us! | X
