Tamás Menczer, the communications director of ruling Fidesz, said on Facebook on Saturday that European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen "has made a budget for Ukraine and she would send them your money, too."
"This is not a budget for the European Union, this is Ukraine's budget," Menczer said in a video, adding that the draft was "so pro-Ukraine that you could tie a blue and yellow ribbon around it." He said it was clear from the planned allocations that "they want to transfer 20 percent to Ukraine immediately". In addition, he said, "they want to spend another 10 percent on interest payments on earlier loans ... they keep making us indebted." He insisted that "30 percent of the total EU budget amount would be thrown to the wind, with European citizens, Hungarians included, not seeing a single euro from those funds."
"We have indicated that this will not do," Menczer said.
