Hungary's Orban calls the EU a bigger threat to his country than Russia

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has made a series of strong statements ahead of elections in April. He said the European Union is a bigger threat to Hungary than Russia, calling some EU policies a 'fantasy' and describing the term 'Putin-ing' as primitive.

Orban's comments come as he faces a political challenge in the upcoming vote. The Kremlin also commented on the situation, agreeing with a statement about Ukraine allegedly trying to pressure Orban.
