The united opposition held a demonstration in front of the Russian embassy in Budapest under the motto "Against Putin, for Ukraine" late on Thursday. Peter Marki-Zay, the prime ministerial candidate of the united opposition, called on Prime Minister Viktor Orban to drop his “see-saw policy”. Jobbik deputy leader Laszlo Lukacs said “Hungarians, Europe, and the sane half of the world support peace and will continue to do so”. Budapest Mayor Gergely Karacsony, co-leader of Parbeszed, said “we are not protesting against the Russian people but Russia’s dictator”. He accused the Hungarian prime minister of “contributing to the oiling of the power machinery now occupying Ukraine for the past 12 years”.
