Stan Rogers Folk Festival 2024: 27 years of music and community | SaltWire #festival #music #nsBUDAPEST - NATO's plans to get more involved in the war in Ukraine are like a firefighter trying to put out a fire with a flamethrower, Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orban said on Friday.

NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg said on Thursday that the"time has come" for members of the military alliance to reconsider some of the restrictions attached to the use of weapons they supplied to Ukraine. Hungary's foreign minister said earlier this month that his country, a NATO member, would not participate in the alliance's long-term plan to aid Ukraine, which Budapest has called a"crazy mission".

Orban also said on Friday that negotiations about sending French military trainers to Ukraine and to allow the Ukraine military to use Western weapons to attack Russian targets were ideas that were"worrying" and took NATO closer to war.
