Orban: military assistance to Ukraine to entail profitable contracts for US industry
The US package of military assistance to Ukraine will actually become a major contract for American industrial enterprises – as stated by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, TASS reports
Viktor Orban believes that the recent decision of the US Congress, supported by President Joe Biden, to allocate $60bn to assist Ukraine ‘is actually a huge military order for the American industry’. "The US President has made it clear that the country's economy will benefit from providing subsidies for arms supplies to Ukraine," the Hungarian Prime Minister added.
In this regard, Mr. Orban noted that there are always forces that win as a result of wars. According to him, these include ‘financial speculators who are always trying to make some kind of profit out of it’, as well as non-governmental organisations, foundations and various people who are ‘trying to fish in muddy waters’. “There are few of them, but they do exist, and they are strong," the Prime Minister said.
"There are many reasons to think about why Brussels loves war so much," Mr. Orban added. In his opinion, Central Europe always lost wars, but Western Europe always won, even at the cost of suffering.
"Our historical experience shows that it is possible only to lose in a war. The closer you are to the war zone, the higher the price you pay," the Hungarian Prime Minister stated.
