Budapest's move has cast a shadow over the impending passage of the next sanctions package at a crucial meeting of EU foreign ministers.
Hungarian influencers organized a gathering of over 50,000 protestors in Budapest last Friday following a child sexual abuse case.
Multiple government insiders stated that Zoltán Balog, the head of the General Synod of the Hungarian Reformed Church and a longtime mentor to Novák, had significant influence in the clemency case.
The statement reacts to Orban's comments that Ukraine can “only fight as long as the United States supports it with money and arms."
The incident illustrates how Hungary has become a hub for Russian intelligence.
Hungary’s government issued a decree on Monday allowing NATO troops to be deployed in western Hungary and weapons shipments to cross its territory by land or by air to other NATO member states.
