NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg confirmed that the alliance was informed in advance about Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban's recent trip to Moscow for discussions with Russian President Vladimir Putin, according to Reuters.
Stoltenberg emphasized that Orban's visit was in his capacity as Prime Minister of Hungary and not as a representative of NATO, of which Hungary is a member. He stated that NATO will analyze the outcomes of these talks during upcoming discussions.
During a press briefing, Stoltenberg remarked on Russia's stance regarding the conflict in Ukraine, noting that there has been no substantial change and that President Putin shows no indication of readiness to engage in peace negotiations.
Regarding the ongoing conflict, Stoltenberg emphasized that Ukraine must determine the terms that it finds acceptable for peace talks and any potential settlement that may follow.
