BUDAPEST, October 2. /TASS/. The new Hungarian government’s decision not to send weapons or troops to Ukraine reflects its intention to preserve peace at home, Hungarian Foreign Ministry State Secretary for Parliamentary Affairs Gyorgy Velkey said.

"No soldiers and no arms. It’s in the Hungarian interest to guarantee peace in Hungary. For us it’s crucial," he told Bloomberg.

Hungarian Prime Minister Peter Magyar and Foreign Minister Anita Orban have repeatedly said that the country’s new government, like its predecessor, will neither supply weapons to Ukraine nor allow Hungarian trops to be sent there.
