Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said on Sept. 29 that Ukraine is not a sovereign state while responding to allegations from Kyiv that Hungarian drones had violated the country’s airspace.

Not a sovereign state?! Wouldn't that same argument make Hungary not a sovereign state with it being controlled by the Hapsburg Monarchy in Vienna? Or perhaps Hungary, by Orban's logic, is not a sovereign because it was invaded in WWII by Germany?

    it was invaded in WWII by Germany?

    Hungary was a member of the Axis and participated in many of the Axis' wars including the invasion of the Soviet Union. Then post-war they were a puppet of the Soviet Union.
