The new Prime Minister of Hungary, Peter Magyar, confirmed a drastic shift in the country's foreign policy. He announced that he will stop vetoing European Union sanctions against Israel
.The decision breaks with the line held for years by the government of Viktor Orbán, who had systematically blocked measures against the Israeli State.
Hungary is abandoning its containment role
Until now, Hungary functioned as a brake within the European Union. His veto prevented sanctions promoted by critical sectors of Israel from advancing
.With the arrival of Magyar, that barrier disappears. The president himself made it clear that he will not continue with that policy
.The change opens the door to concrete measures against Israel in the short term.
The EU advances against Israel
After a meeting in Brussels, the EU's foreign policy chief, Kaja Kallas, anticipated that sanctions could be applied soon
.Among the measures analyzed are actions against Israeli citizens in disputed territories.
Without the Hungarian veto, these initiatives have a much better chance of coming to fruition.
