Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has voted in a national consultation in which Hungarians are asked if they would support Ukraine's accession to the European Union, and he even showed the whole process.

Source: European Pravda; Viktor Orbán on Facebook

Quote: "Brussels and the Tisza party [opposing Orbán – ed.] support Ukraine's accession to the EU. This will destroy the Hungarian economy. We will not allow them to decide our future over our heads. I have already voted."

Details: One of the photos released by Orbán shows him ticking the "against" box on the ballot paper measuring the level of Hungary's support for Ukraine's EU membership.

Background:

On 5 March, Viktor Orbán announced a poll in Hungary on support for Ukraine's EU membership. On 19 April, ballots for the national consultation were sent to Hungarians, directly calling for a vote against Ukraineʼs membership in the EU. Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski sarcastically commented on Orbán's initiative.
