While most European countries firmly back Ukraine, Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Orbán is seen as having comparatively close ties to Russia, prompting a war of words with Poland.

A diplomatic spat has erupted between Poland and Hungary that lays bare the deep tensions within Europe over how to deal with Russia as it continues its full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

Poland, like Germany, France and most other European nations, is a staunch ally of Ukraine while Hungary’s populist Prime Minister Viktor Orbán is widely considered to have the warmest relations with the Kremlin among EU leaders.

The Polish government has been openly critical of Hungary for its stance, with their spat reaching a new boiling point when Orbán lashed out at Poland at the weekend.

We’ve known this about Putin for over a decade now.

Maybe Orbán and him should get a room.

Using gay as a punch line is stupid. Leave this in the 00’s

Putin’s government is anti-gay and anti-LGBTQ af so I’m making light of it by referencing a meme from 12 years ago.

You are harming LGBTQ ideology on the open internet to take a jab at Putin, who i can only assume… regards your comments highly?

And to you it is more important to annoy him than to support LGBTQ?

Interesting take.

I’m upvoting you because you’re making a lot of sense. The only thing I don’t get is your assessment of what Putin thinks about my comments. Not trying to debate. Have a nice day.

i was being sarcastic to say that Putin wouldn’t care if we called him gay or otherwise is all.

Dude… did they actually touch? I mean in one of the its skin against skin! They are totally doing it in private!

Btw, that is not Orban. That is the president of Belarusia Aleksandr Lukasjenko

Why are you people so obsessed with politicians sexual life?

andrew_bidlaw@sh.itjust.works on 29 Jul 2024 21:50 collapse

I thought it died off from everyone’s memory lel. Either way, it wasn’t the best jab even then even in homophobic Russia. I invite you to update your clipboard with less cringey and more insightful memes for future purposes.

Tch. As if Hungary and Poland needed a bigger disagreement than the pronunciations of 's' and 'sz'.

Jokes with names are low-tier, but the question is in the air,

Is he pondering you as we speak, Vic?
