it is not even clear who attacked whom.

Orbán Viktor previously stated clearly that Russia attacked Ukraine — a fact acknowledged by international law, the UN, and earlier Hungarian government positions.

Now, after reopening talks with Russia, his language has changed. Instead of reaffirming that Russia launched the invasion, he says

“it is not even clear who attacked whom.”

The reality has not changed. Only the narrative has.
This is not a discovery of new facts, but a deliberate reframing: blurring responsibility without explicitly denying it.

It is a classic political maneuver — not peace advocacy, but relativizing aggression to make a strategic pivot more palatable.
