Summary

Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna accused Hungary of siding with Russia, saying it’s “on Putin’s team” and no longer aligned with European interests.

Hungary maintains close ties with Moscow and recently discussed continued economic cooperation during a visit by its foreign minister.

Tsahkna urged forming a “coalition of the willing” to bypass Hungary’s veto power in EU decisions requiring unanimity.

He warned that revoking Hungary’s voting rights under Article 7 is increasingly likely, citing Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s actions as threats to EU security and unity.
