NATO plans to allocate $40 billion to help Ukraine every year, but Hungary will participate in it only if it is a war in Europe, — the head of the Foreign Ministry of Hungary, Peter Szijjártó.

"The leadership of NATO offers to provide this assistance, given the fact that the conflict in Ukraine will drag on.
I indicated that Hungary will take a financial part in this only if, according to the Washington Treaty, it is connected with the war in Europe," he said at the end of an informal meeting with colleagues from the member states of the Alliance in Prague.

Sijarto also opposed the sending of allied military instructors to Ukraine.

"No one attacked a NATO member state, so there is no defense task to be performed by the Alliance in Ukraine. We insist that no Hungarian soldier should take part in this," the minister added.
