Hungarian official: Brussels could CONSCRIPT European youths as Ukraine death toll rises

By ramontomeydw // 2024-05-31

A government official in Hungary has warned that Brussels could conscript youths across the European Union (EU) to fight in the frontlines of Ukraine, amid the rising death toll in the conflict with Russia. Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto issued this warning after a meeting with fellow foreign ministers from the bloc. According to him, the high casualty rates among Ukrainian forces combined with Kyiv's difficulty to conscript its own population could see Brussels step in. If that instance happens, the EU would conscript youths – mostly in the geographical proximity of Ukraine – to fight against Russian troops. "Ukrainian casualties are becoming more and more unbearable," Szijjarto told Hungarian media. "Ukrainian men are not being allowed out of Ukraine, and now they want to conscript European youth into the war." "And obviously, as this escalation hits the neighborhood first, one can almost clearly hear the argument that the soldiers should be sent from the geographical proximity first. All this means [is] that they want to send Central European youth, including Hungarian youth, to the war with mandatory European conscription." Szijjarto did not disclose which foreign ministers or EU member states are exploring the possibility of a European conscription effort. However, several countries have said they would consider sending their own troops to Ukraine if Moscow had a breakthrough on the Ukrainian front. These include France, whose President Emmanuel Macron has repeatedly insinuated the need to send North Atlantic Treaty Organization troops to Ukraine, and the three Baltic states – Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. "A long-term goal of the left-liberal establishment in Brussels is the creation of an EU military force, including removing the decision-making process about defense from member states and centralizing it in Brussels. Under such a proposal, a potential conscription effort could arise that applies to all EU member states," Remix News wrote.

Hungary says NO to mandatory EU conscription

During his interview with Hungarian media, the foreign minister described an extremely intense atmosphere at the Council of Foreign Ministers in Brussels ahead of the European Parliament elections in June. According to Szijjarto, the mood turned sour when those present began to discuss the release of €6.5 billion ($7.03 billion) for Ukraine. He rejected the proposal for the reason that it would escalate the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, but was chided by other countries for it. "There was a big mess here. The German, Lithuanian, Irish, Polish [foreign ministers] and other colleagues fell against me in this matter, but this could not shake our position despite the shouting of Europe's pro-war politician," the foreign minister recounted. "They think that if they shout from many directions, then I will say 'That is good, it is fine.' However, they should already know us well enough to know this won't happen." Szijjarto reiterated that he would be firmly opposed to any efforts to institute a European mandatory conscription. "Hands off Central Europeans, hands off Hungarian youth," he said. "We will not allow Hungarian youth to be involved in the war, because this is not our war." Earlier, Szijjarto's colleague and Hungarian Deputy Prime Minister Zsolt Semjen also pledged to offer a safe haven for Ukrainians dodging Kyiv's draconian military draft. During a May 6 interview with Hungarian broadcaster ATV, he remarked that Budapest "would not extradite refugees to Ukraine" – sparing young soldiers from the meat grinder of war against Russia.

"We do not investigate whether, according to the Ukrainians, the person is conscripted or not," said the deputy prime minister. "Based on basic humanity, we will not allow them to be sent to their deaths. Every refugee from Ukraine is completely safe with us and receives all the help."
