Apparently, the guy in question is also named Orbán, and prime minister Orbán has said that prime minister aide Orbán is talking nonsense, so there’s that.

BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) — Hungary always has and always will defend itself against foreign attacks, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said on Friday after one of his closest aides provoked controversy by suggesting that Hungary wouldn’t have fought against a Russian invasion as Ukraine has done.
Speaking to state radio, Orbán sought to downplay the remarks by his political director, Balázs Orbán, which stirred outrage among many in Hungary and led to calls for his resignation.
Prime Minister Orbán called the comment “an ambiguous statement, which in this context is a mistake.”
He emphasized that Hungary has “always defended itself, it will defend itself today and will continue to defend itself in the future by all possible means.”
Also, the names don’t seem to stop there.
On Thursday, Hungary’s most prominent opposition figure, Péter Magyar, called for Balázs Orbán’s resignation by Oct. 23, the 68th anniversary of the revolution.
Isn’t “Magyar” Hungarian for “Hungarian”?
checks Google Translate
It is.
So we’ve got the Hungarian opposition lead Hungarian criticizing Hungarian prime minister Orbán and calling for Hungarian prime minister Orbán’s aide Orbán to resign.
Changing my name to Johnny American, I will become the global version of Florida man representing the US.
Yes, I assume very confusing for foreigners.
Maybe “big” Orbán is hoping that when the time comes, the inernational assassin accidentally shoots the other one, so he’s keeping him around.
Also, it would be very funny to have one day Peter Hungarian as the Hungarian Prime Minister.
The gangs getting back together again!
Austria-hungary! Czechslovakia! Yugoslavia! Soviet uni- ohhhhh fuck.Nah. Make Mongolia European again.
Do you mean make Europe part of the Mongolian Steppe Empire again?
Oops, my bad. I guess I’ll go lie down in front of the horses with the others.
Can’t we just give Hungary to Russia in exchange for withdrawing from Ukraine?
Who would give away territory for the highway to allow russian tanks to get to Budapest? Unless you want to send the Hungarians back to the Urals.
Maybe another EU member should invade Hungary?
“Been there, done that. No thanks”
- Austria
Yeah, when Austria conquered Hungary, the Hungarians were fighting on the Austrian side. The last meaningful war that Austria and Hungary fought, Hungary basically won, but the Austrians called in the Russians to help. European history is like Game of Thrones, but with more cocaine.
That said, the last time Hungary’s leadership was not completely idiotic, the year was 1490. And even that happened by mistake, because the guy before him did a Leeroy Jenkins IRL.
what’s a nato with you?
