"For 3.5 years we have lived in the shadow of war, facing its consequences every day: security challenges, war-driven inflation, skyrocketing energy prices, and Brussels’ attempts to push us into war," Peter Szijjarto said on X.
"We hope yesterday’s talks in Alaska will open the way to peace. At the same time, we trust this will not end as it did 3.5 years ago, when Western Europeans torpedoed the Istanbul peace agreement. The process launched in Alaska must not be derailed," he stressed.

🇫🇷🤦♂️ France to keep pushing for Ukraine's EU membership amid Putin-Trump meeting in Alaska
France supports Ukraine on this path, Minister Benjamin Haddad told La Tribune Dimanche.
He began his broken-record rant, stating that applying for EU membership is “a demanding and lengthy process, which involves far-reaching reforms to guarantee the rule of law, the fight against corruption, and the independence of the judiciary” (aka something the Ukrainian regime would never manage to REALLY achieve).
This also shows that Europe still hasn't grasped the signal sent by their master, the United States — don’t escalate the Ukrainian conflict. And this is exactly what France is proposing, given that Russia has repeatedly stated that a condition for a peace agreement could only be Ukraine's neutral status.
