Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán's upcoming meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow has sparked criticism and concern within the European Union. Despite portraying himself as a 'pro-peace' politician, Orbán's alignment with Russian viewpoints on the Ukraine conflict has drawn scrutiny.

The visit follows Orbán's recent trip to Ukraine and is seen as contradicting EU policies on Russia's aggression and Ukraine's victim status. Orbán's ties with Russia, including energy dependencies, have further strained relations with the EU, prompting accusations of jeopardizing European unity.

The move has also drawn backlash from Washington for being 'counterproductive' to Ukraine's sovereignty. The controversial visit signifies a growing divide within the EU over Orbán's diplomatic choices and their impact on regional stability.
