The Hungarian elections will take place on April 12. According to polls, the opposition party Tisza is currently leading. They have a real chance of ousting Fidesz, led by Orban.
Orban has hindered support for Ukraine and obstructed sanctions against Russia. Now it has emerged that the Hungarian Foreign Minister shared sensitive information with the Kremlin. Reinsalu considers this to be treasonous behavior.
Reinsalu hopes that the Tisza party, led by Péter Magyar, will win the elections. This would lead to a decrease in Russia's influence in Europe.
As a former Foreign Minister, Reinsalu supported Fidesz. Now his attitude has changed. He believes the current situation is different.
Reinsalu also emphasized Estonia's security. He stated that we need additional deterrent measures and a new balance point between Europe and the USA.
Reinsalu is willing to discuss requests from the United States to allies. He is concerned about NATO's functioning.
In conclusion, Reinsalu emphasized that success in the Hungarian elections would reduce Russia's strategic influence in Europe.
