Viktor Orbán said that after the Central Eastern European countries joined NATO, it was being debated for years whether they should abide by membership only or go further and field NATO’s military capabilities, too. No one wanted to have a militarily secure Central Europe at the cost of making an enemy of Russia", the Premier pointed out.
“Without violating earlier agreements between NATO and Russia, there will be continuous rotational military presence in some Central European countries, and in some other, including Hungary, NATO Force Integration Units (NFIUs) will be set up", this is how Viktor Orbán summed up the decision taken at the Warsaw Summit.
