Hungarian delegation travels to Ukraine without invitation - like wedding guests who weren't invited
Budapest sends delegation to Kyiv, but Ukrainians say - we didn't invite you. The situation is like with the Karosta Canal bridge - everyone wants to cross, but it doesn't always work out.
Hungarian politicians have decided to go to Ukraine with about as much official status as tourists trying to photograph the Karosta Canal bridge from the water side - no official permission, but they really want to.
Kyiv announced that the Hungarian group has crossed the border, but "this is a private trip. We didn't invite them." This is about as awkward as showing up to a wedding without an invitation and explaining that "I just came for a walk." The deputy head of the Ukrainian president's office emphasized that "there is no official status and no official meetings are planned."
Hungarian Energy Minister Gábor Czepek announced that the delegation's goal is to "firmly defend Hungary's interests" and achieve the opening of the "Druzhba" oil pipeline. This sounds about as convincing as claiming that the Karosta Canal bridge will never cause traffic jams - theoretically possible, but in practice... well, we'll see.
The situation with the pipeline is like every other infrastructure project - some say it needs four weeks, others - six, but actually nobody knows when it will be ready. Zelensky promised restoration in four to six weeks, which in diplomatic language means "when it's done, it's done."
Logically, Viktor Orbán is pushing to stop sanctions on Russian oil - he needs fuel for his campaign before the April elections after all. And what else to do but send an unofficial delegation to people who haven't invited you?
