Lawmakers approved the resolution with 142 votes in favor, 28 against, and four abstentions.
The document states that recent decisions by European Union leaders increase the risk of escalation and bring Europe closer to becoming directly involved in the war.
According to the resolution, Hungary opposes Ukraine’s EU membership because the country is currently at war and its accession would effectively draw the European Union itself into the conflict. It also argues that Ukraine does not meet the criteria required for EU membership.
The resolution therefore calls on the Hungarian government not to support the substantive launch of Ukraine’s accession negotiations and to withhold support for Ukraine joining the EU.
Parliament also urged the government to support international peace efforts and to refrain from sending money or weapons to Ukraine. The document calls for steps to ensure that neither Hungary nor the European Union becomes involved in the Russia–Ukraine war.
The resolution notes that since the outbreak of the war, the European Union has provided €193.3 billion in support to Ukraine, nearly three times the amount of net EU funding Hungary has received since joining the bloc in 2004.
It also points out that the EU—without the participation of Hungary, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia—plans to extend an additional €90 billion loan package to Ukraine in 2026–2027, which Ukraine would repay only in the event of postwar Russian reparations.
According to the document, Ukraine’s share of the EU’s next seven-year budget could exceed €360 billion, while European Commission proposals could reduce cohesion funding and agricultural subsidies to finance this support.
The resolution further notes that Ukraine’s reconstruction plan estimates $800 billion in reconstruction costs over the next decade, along with an additional $700 billion in military spending, which it says would impose an estimated burden of around 1.4 million forints on each Hungarian family.
The National Assembly welcomed the government’s decision to launch a national petition allowing Hungarians to express their views on further war financing for Ukraine.
The resolution also calls on the government to oppose EU policies aimed at continuing financial support for Ukraine’s war effort and to prevent Hungarian funds or EU resources allocated to Hungary from being redirected to Ukraine.
Finally, the document warns against efforts within the EU to transform the bloc into a military alliance and rejects attempts by EU institutions to bypass the requirement of unanimous decision-making among member states.
