In his statement, Szijjarto expressed that there is "no solution to wars on the battlefield," and warned that there is a large "pro-war camp" supported by global mainstream media and non-governmental organizations that undermines peace efforts.
"We support the Chinese peace plan, simply because it exists and calls for peace. And in our opinion, any initiative that diverts international political debates and international political discourse from war to peace is useful," Szijjarto said in a statement following the talks.
"But we must be louder in supporting peace," he added. "Both China and Hungary are strengthening the peace camp."
Szijjarto, speaking on behalf of the Hungarian government of Prime Minister Viktor Orban, has previously claimed many leaders in the European Union (EU) and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) are suffering from "war psychosis," wherein they feel as if they are already at war with Russia.
He described the tone at a recent meeting of EU foreign and defense ministers as that of an army headquarters, where for hours "almost everyone was talking about how many units of what weapons and according to what schedule they are ready to supply to Ukraine" from military stockpiles, many of which are practically empty following over two years of providing limitless military aid to Kyiv.

From the onset of the conflict, Hungary has been calling for a ceasefire and negotiations to save Ukrainian lives, with Orban insisting that "time is on the side of the Russians" and that "almost nobody" believes that Kyiv can actually win on the battlefield.

Chinese peace proposal calls for ceasefire, protection of civilians, resumption of peace talks and end to sanctions
In February 2023, China also long urged peace talks between Ukraine and Russia, and issued a 12-point peace plan to end the hostilities.
The initiative includes a call for a cessation of hostilities, a resumption of peace talks, abandoning the "Cold War mentality" and respecting the sovereignty of all nations.
In contrast to Beijing’s proposal to end the fighting, Kyiv’s ten-point peace formula – first presented by President Volodymyr Zelensky in the fall of 2022 – demands the complete and unconditional withdrawal of Russian forces from all territories within Ukraine’s internationally recognized 1991 borders.
Moscow has described Zelensky’s peace formula as an “absolutely hollow” ultimatum that is “divorced from reality.”
China's proposal, unveiled at a security conference in Munich, Germany, emphasizes a call for a ceasefire, peace talks and an end to sanctions against Russia.
However, skepticism regarding China's intentions has been voiced, particularly by U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who expressed concerns about Beijing's support for Russia.
Despite China's claims of neutrality, Blinken cited intelligence suggesting that China may be considering providing lethal support to Russia, a claim vehemently denied by Beijing.
The 12-point proposal, while advocating for peace and dialogue, lacks specific details on key issues such as the sovereignty of Ukraine and the status of territories seized by Russia since 2014. It calls for the protection of civilians and prisoners of war, among other general principles.
Analysts note that China's policy appears to be leaning in favor of Russia, with some suggesting that Beijing is attempting to navigate a delicate balance between supporting Russia and maintaining an image of peace advocacy.
The Kremlin has also come out in support of China's peace proposal, with Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov stating that Beijing's plan is the most reasonable proposal so far to resolving the conflict in Ukraine.
"The most important thing for us is that the Chinese document is based on an analysis of the reasons for what is happening and the need to eliminate these root causes. It is structured in logic from the general to the specific," said Lavrov. "This plan was criticized for being vague… But this is a reasonable plan that the great Chinese civilization proposed for discussion."
