Hungary will not allow the deployment of additional forces on its territory, 
because the national army is capable of providing national security in the 
midst of tensions around Ukraine, said the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Péter 
Szijjártó. 

"No, we did not agree to that and we will not agree to that, because we already 
have NATO troops on the territory of the country, and those are the Hungarian 
army and the Hungarian armed forces, which are able to guarantee the country's 
security. So, we don't need additional troops on the territory of Hungary," 
Szijjártó told Euronews. 

Earlier this month, U.S. Defense Department spokesman John Kirby said 
Washington would temporarily deploy additional U.S. troops to Eastern Europe 
because of the Ukrainian crisis. 

In particular, a squadron of 1.000 members would be relocated from Germany to 
Romania to join the 900 U.S. troops already present in the country. The first 
100 American soldiers have already arrived in Romania. Another 1.700 soldiers 
should be stationed in Poland, Sputnik reported. 

Moscow has repeatedly rejected Western allegations of its intention to invade 
Ukraine with troops it has reportedly gathered near the common border, adding 
that Western information "hysteria" appears to be a camouflage for Kiev's plans 
to sabotage Minsk's conflict agreements re: the secession of Donbass.
