Retaliation against Hungary for Prime Minister Viktor Orbán's meetings with Russian Vladimir Putin and Chinese Xi Jinping has intensified, sparking significant tensions within the European Union.
The European Commission's decision to boycott meetings organized under Hungary's rotating presidency reflects the deteriorating relationship between the EU and Hungary, which has been marked by Orbán's controversial international engagements.
The internal divisions among EU member states regarding the boycott highlight the complexity of diplomatic relations and differing strategies to address Hungary's actions.
