Magyar states Hungary hasn’t joined Carpathian Eight – media

Hungarian Prime Minister Péter Magyar has declared that his nation has not joined the Carpathian Eight collaboration format introduced by Ukraine. According to the European Pravda, Magyar made this statement during a parliamentary address. The Ukrainian leader's invitation for Hungary to participate in the Carpathian Eight was received, but the government chose not to join for specific reasons, according to Magyar.

The Prime Minister did not disclose the reasons behind Hungary's decision to decline participation. On September 18, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced the formation of the Carpathian Eight, which would unite Ukraine, seven European nations (Romania, Serbia, Poland, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Austria, and Hungary), and the EU.

Following the inaugural Carpathian Summit, the leaders of the eight countries adopted a final declaration. Hungary was represented at the summit by the deputy ambassador to Kyiv.
