Hungary Sounds WW3 ALARM Over New Support For Ukraine | Putin Warns Europe Will ‘Pay The Price’

Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has issued a stark warning: Ukraine joining NATO could spark a global war with Russia. Echoing Putin’s recent threats, Orbán says NATO expansion is a direct risk to peace in Europe. Hungary's foreign minister reinforced this stance, calling Ukraine's membership “impossible.” As NATO leaders push for more defense spending to counter Russia, divisions within the alliance deepen. While Europe arms up, Hungary distances itself—fearing the next move could ignite World War 3. #Hungary #NATO #Ukraine #WW3 #WorldWar3 #Putin #Russia #ViktorOrban #UkraineWar #Geopolitics #NATOExpansion #Orbán #GlobalRisk #NATOSummit #EU #DefenseSpending #RussiaNATO #NATOWarning #EuropeanPolitics #MilitaryTensions #NATOvsRussia #UkraineNATO #GlobalCrisis #WarThreat Also Read This NATO Member Country Can Provide India Battle-Tested Unmanned Weapons, Tech :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/this-nato-member-country-can-provide-india-battle-tested-unmanned-weapons-tech-4175213.html?ref=DMDesc US-Europe Divide Deepens Over Ukraine As Trump Challenges NATO's Approach :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-europe-divide-deepens-over-ukraine-as-trump-challenges-natos-approach-4080283.html?ref=DMDesc Zelensky Willing To Step Down If It Secures Ukraine's NATO Membership: 'Immediately' If Necessary :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/zelensky-willing-to-step-down-if-it-secures-ukraines-nato-membership-immediately-if-necessary-4078905.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~GR.124~

U.S’ Priority Changed? Trump Favouring China-India Over EU? | EU Side-lined As Trump Looks East

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen reminded Donald Trump that the EU remains open for a trade deal—but the U.S. President made it clear: China and India come first. Speaking after sealing deals with Beijing and hinting at a "very big" one with India, Trump gave no indication of engaging with Europe anytime soon. The EU, once a top U.S. economic partner, is now seemingly sidelined as Washington pivots eastward. The diplomatic slight leaves Brussels waiting in line—behind two of the world’s biggest emerging powerhouses. #TrumpChinaIndiaDeal #TrumpSnubsEU #VonDerLeyen #USIndiaTrade #USChinaDeal #EUSidelined #GlobalTradeShift #AmericaFirstPolicy #EUTradeTalks #TrumpPriorities #IndoUSRelations #ChinaUSDeal #TrumpVsEurope #TradeDiplomacy #GlobalPolitics #ModiTrumpDeal #BeijingWashingtonTrade #BrusselsLeftBehind #TradeShock #GeopoliticalReset Also Read US Will Soon Sign Very Big Deal With India: Trump :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-will-soon-sign-very-big-deal-with-india-trump-7784501.html?ref=DMDesc Trump’s Iran Strike Claims Under Scrutiny: Intelligence Reports Raise Doubts About ‘Total Obliteration’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-s-iran-strike-claims-under-scrutiny-intelligence-reports-raise-doubts-about-total-obliterati-7783233.html?ref=DMDesc Swearing at the World Stage: Trump’s Anger Reveals the Limits of U.S. Mediation in the Israel-Iran Conflict :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/swearing-at-the-world-stage-trump-s-anger-reveals-the-limits-of-u-s-mediation-in-the-israel-iran-c-7781983.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.102~HT.408~
