Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjártó believes that it is a “naive illusion” that talks between Russia and Ukraine can end the war, he said that for a lasting peace, talks between the US and Russia are necessary, and it would be important for the leaders of the two countries to meet at the next of the G20 summit, writes MTI.

According to the press release of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Trade of Hungary, the minister emphasized before the joint meeting of foreign ministers of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC) and the European Union in Argentina that at the meeting in Indonesia the G20, which includes the world’s largest economies, the Russian and American presidents are also likely to attend.

• “If they are in the same place, I think it will be very difficult for them to explain to anyone on earth why they are not meeting.
• We understand that protocol is important, we understand that it is important for everyone to demonstrate their strength, that they are stronger than others.
• But hundreds of thousands of people are dying here, millions of people are taking refuge, the whole world is in crisis, and we must prevent this regional war, which has already caused global crises, from turning into a world war,” said Peter Sijarto. , quoted by News.ro.

He also said that peace requires negotiations, but to believe that negotiations between Russia and Ukraine can end the war and lead to a lasting peace is a “naive illusion”:

• “We need Russian-American negotiations, an agreement between America and Russia.
• Global energy supplies are in crisis, food security in many regions of the world is in crisis, inflation is skyrocketing worldwide, economies are in recession, and the jobs of millions of people are at risk.
• At the same time, we are concerned that some large and powerful countries, some large and powerful international organizations continue to use the rhetoric of war. And their statements and decisions push this war toward escalation, not peace.”
