There’s No Going Back – Ukrainians safe in Hungary

SPIN-FREE NEWS: Budapest will not allow refugees to be sent to their deaths on the front line, Zsolt Semjen has said. Hungary has no intention of deporting Ukrainian citizens, as Kiev responding to NATO coercion intensifies efforts to mobilize more troops for its failing army, Deputy Prime Minister Zsolt Semjen has said.

In recent weeks, the US/EU-sponsored Ukrainian regime has attempted to pressure its citizens who left the country, particularly those living in the EU, to return home.

Ukraine’s Jewish leader, the unelected Volodymyr Zelensky had pleaded with the bloc’s authorities to support this effort. Many but not all EU members, however, have been reluctant to cooperate.

Semjen told Hungarian broadcaster ATV on Monday that Budapest would not extradite refugees to Ukraine. ‘We do not investigate whether, according to the Ukrainians, the person is conscripted or not. Based on basic humanity, we will not allow them to be sent to their deaths.’

‘Every refugee from Ukraine is completely safe with us and receives all the help,’ he added.

In an inhuman but failed effort to force Ukrainians of fighting age to return, Ukrainian consulates abroad last month announced the suspension of services to men between the ages of 18 and 60.

This group can no longer receive any necessary documents until they return home. In effect, they are now stateless – outcasts wherever they live.

A Washington Post report last week suggested that many Ukrainians living in the West are angered by the new policy, saying they feel they are being treated like traitors and potential prey for conscription officials.

Kiev has also tried to enlist EU officials to help solve its manpower problem. But even staunch supporters of Ukraine such as Poland and Germany have refused to hand over refugees, vowing to protect their rights. 

According to Eurostat, 4.3 million Ukrainians were living in the EU as of January 2024, of which around 860,000 are men of fighting age.

In recent months, Ukraine has also stepped up efforts to compensate for losses of 1 million on the battlefield by increasing its mobilization drive within the country.

Last month, President Vladimir Zelensky signed two bills into law, one lowering the draft age for men from 27 to 25, and another significantly simplifying the draft process.

His books are published by pirates who don’t pay him a cent. There is nothing he can do about it – and they know it. This is why the right wing is worthless and won’t get anywhere.
