The European Parliament has condemned Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán's visit to Moscow, calling for retaliatory measures. The resolution criticizes Hungary for blocking aid to Ukraine and expresses support for Ukraine.

The condemnation has faced opposition from far-right parties such as Reagrupamiento Nacional and the European Conservatives and Reformists. Other parties, including Socialists and Democrats, the Alliance for the Union of Romanians, and Podemos, also oppose Orbán's actions.

The resolution mentions various political figures, including Giorgia Meloni, the President of the European Council Charles Michel, and Ursula von der Leyen. Furthermore, the Patriots for Europe group, which includes Vox, and the Maltese Social Democrats voted against the resolution.

In response to Orbán's actions, the European Commission has boycotted meetings organized by the Hungarian presidency. Orban's visit has also been criticized by Ukrainian President Zelenskiy at a leaders' meeting in the UK, where he accused Orbán of betraying Europe and called for unity among leaders.

Vox, marginalized with the pro-Putin alliance

Politics
Vox, a Spanish far-right party, has been marginalized from the European Union by joining the group of Marine Le Pen and Viktor Orbán, known as the 'Patriots.'
