Second Front: Hungary Moves Heavy Armor to Ukrainian Border​

13 May 2025

Kyiv hastened to accuse Budapest of intending to regain control of the territory of Transcarpathia.

the recent detention of Hungarian spies, reported by the SBU, is only a link in the chain of actions by Hungary to seize Ukrainian territory.

Hungarian spies could have told Russia where F-16s are located in Ukraine, says former SBU employee

Recent diplomatic tensions between Hungary and Ukraine have escalated into a tangible military response, with Budapest deploying armored vehicles to key border checkpoints following a contentious spy scandal. The dispute underscores the fragile state of relations between the two nations, further complicated by Hungary’s firm opposition to Ukraine’s EU membership aspirations.
The conflict began on May 9, when Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) announced it had uncovered an alleged Hungarian military intelligence network operating on Ukrainian soil. According to Kyiv, the spies, primarily ethnic Hungarians in the Zakarpattia region, were gathering sensitive military data, including troop deployments, air defense locations, and supply routes. The SBU further claimed that the operatives were preparing for a potential Hungarian military incursion.

Budapest swiftly dismissed the accusations as politically motivated, retaliating by expelling two Ukrainian diplomats accused of espionage. Hungarian officials suggested that the allegations were a deliberate provocation, possibly linked to Ukraine’s cooperation with Hungary’s opposition party, Tisza, which has clashed with Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s government.

On May 12, Hungary took the unprecedented step of reinforcing its border with Ukraine, deploying tanks and armored personnel carriers to five major crossing points: Záhony, Beregsurány, Tiszabecs, Barabás, and Nagybodósz. While Budapest has framed the move as a necessary security measure, the timing suggests a direct response to the espionage dispute.

Could just be a ruse to draw off Ukrainian reserves to the border.

Trans-Carpathia used to be a part of Austro-Hungarian Empire. After WWI and fall of Austro-Hungarian Empire it was given to Czechoslovakia. When Hitler occupied Czechoslovakia he gave Trans-Carpathia to Hungary. After WWII and defeat of Hungary, which was an ally of Germany, Stalin annexed Trans-Carpathia to Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic. The native population is sort of Ukrainian with a large number of Hungarians living there as well.

Merz Gives Ukraine Green Light to Strike Deep Inside Russia​

(Bloomberg) -- German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said Ukraine has been given permission to use weapons supplied by its allies to launch strikes deep inside Russia.
“There are absolutely no range limits anymore for weapons delivered to Ukraine, not from Britain, the French or from us — also not from the Americans,” Merz said at a conference in Berlin on Monday. “That means Ukraine can defend itself by attacking military positions also in Russia.”
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that, if confirmed, a decision to allow long-range strikes could undermine efforts toward reaching a political settlement, according to Interfax. He called such a decision “dangerous.”

Since these missiles are operated by NATO military personnel. Any such attack can be considered an act of war, making all NATO bases a legitimate target.
If Trump is on board with this decision, he is an idiot.

And what would you suggest Putin *do* about that ?

Attack a NATO base in a NATO country ?

The Ukranians are already fighting it.

It's not like they have to worry about Russia escalating anything, they're already all in.

True. And as an American who wants to stay out of it, I want no part providing support to a cornered animal that may go crazy like a fox.

If Ukraine is desperate, desperate people do dumb shit. We should stay far away.


I'm hoping for peace and to stay out of it.

The war with NATO is already going on.

 

[Grimscale]

also not from the Americans

He really shouldn't go putting words in our mouths.
i feel most Americans actually just want this shit to stop, not get further escalated. And yes, this would escalate things.
Russia isn't "all in" until Kiev is a smoldering crater.

And personally, I would love to see a "new world order" plant get removed from the world stage. Too bad innocent Ukrainians are getting killed because the U.S. politicians couldn't keep their fingers out of another country's government.

Russia doesn't have anything left to go in with short of nukes.

If they launch a single nuke, then the only logical response from the west is absolute annihilation.

If they nuke Kiev, then you must assume that they will nuke DC, Paris, and London if they don't get their way too. The only response is to eliminate their nuclear capability as quickly and violently as possible.

Every nuclear think tank that's ever war gamed it found that it *always* escalates to a full exchange, and whoever escalates the fastest ends up the least dead.

There is no such thing as a limited nuclear exchange.

Russia has Oreshniks, which can wipe out anything in Ukraine and Europe without nuclear payload.

LoL, Ok, sure they can.

And Putin still isn't dining in Kiev 3 years later for what reason ?

But, let's assume you're right, and Putin has just been pulling his punches for the last 3 years.

Wouldn't you be pissed if you were the family of one of the half million Russian soldiers killed or crippled ? Like "why aren't you fighting to win ?"

It was never an all out war. This is why it is called special military operation. Destroying Ukraine was never a goal, but it is an option.
