They proposed a ceasefire and a prisoner exchange: Zelensky allegedly refused to talk to Orban.
Hungary proposes to establish a Christmas ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia for several days and conduct a large-scale prisoner exchange before the holiday. This was reported by Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Sijjarto. The idea was proposed by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban.
Orban suggests carrying out a prisoner exchange involving several thousand individuals. He also calls for an end to hostilities so that no one is harmed during this Christmas ceasefire.
A unique initiative, none like it has been seen in the last thousand days.
However, Minister Sijjarto noted that the proposal is no longer relevant as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky rejected it.
Earlier, Zelensky was outraged with Orban after a call with Putin and thanked Trump.
