If you have a wishy washy approach like that to a defensive pact, there would be no NATO alliance to begin with. Greece wasn’t always a trust worthy ally, France once left NATO because they had a cry over leadership, Italy has often had turbulence.
Relax everyone, Hungarian "status quo" is a piece of shit, but they also have the smallest border with Ukraine, so more activity for Poland/Slovakia/Romania... They'll appreciate.
Meanwhile when EU cuts funding for next 5 years, Orban will get the notice. >

If Poland blocked shipments that would be a lot more problematic. >

Yeah but why would we? Last I checked we are sitting at 1 million refugees and like 400 tanks sent to Ukraine. Feel free to deliver an aircraft carrier filled to brim with strategic bombers if you think it can pass through our borders and can help in beating Russia. Absolutely nobody would oppose the idea and you probably could even do it without anyone finding out until it's already in use (Polish forums specifically tell people NOT TO share any pics/videos of anything military related that goes to Ukraine).
Hungary is imho making a really poor decision here. Current polish government used to shield them from EU sanctions and vice versa. But elections are likely to change it to a more pro-western side and even current leadership does NOT want to be associated with Orban since it hurts their odds of winning. We risk effectively nothing adhering to EU law (frankly speaking most would want it numerically, it's just that our election system is sorta dumb and 40% votes can give you 50+% of seats), Hungarian autocracy on the other hand has a LOT to lose by betting on the wrong horse. And last I checked - Russia accounts for 2 billion $ exports for them. Germany alone is worth 37 billion and combined EU is like 100+... Heck, they had more exports to Ukraine than they had to Russia by like 50% in 2021.
If EU decides to actually take action against a non vital landlocked country with mere 10 million population and for instance embargoes them - this would be an instant collapse of a whole region as 70+% GDP would disappear into the void. It's not like Russia even has any deals that it can offer in response, it won't even give you preferential treatment on their gas/oil prices (since pipelines pass through other countries). 
It's just an all around clusterfuck of bad decisions. And probably the fact that Orban likes what he is seeing and really likes Russians - since if a politican can't look at something objectively and change their allegiances in a flash when it would be convenient then it just means they truly and absolutely believe in a given cause. >

I was not saying they would do it just that if they did it, it would be problematic. >

Kick them out, they're a fifth column and contribute nothing. Yeah they would start working against us openly if kicked out, but they're already doing that, only with veto power inside the alliance.
It would be a good lesson to Turkey, who does actually matter to the alliance, that our patience has limits. >

Countries can't actually be kicked out of NATO, they can only leave. >

They can if everyone else agrees.  Who's going to stop them, Orban? >

Yes.  You need unanimous votes I believe. >

My mother, the daughter of Hungarian settlers, was a volunteer translator for Hungarian refugees fleeing the Soviet invasion of 1956. Canada received almost 40,000 Hungarian refugees from that aggression. My mother, and all the Hungarian heroes of that resistance, would be very ashamed of the part played by Hungary in the present day. Not just in its repeated obstruction of support for Ukraine, but in its institutional backsliding into its own repressive corrupt habits. It is, at the very least, very sad. >

I read about the small bridge at Andau, Austria. Did your mom escape across the border that way? >

We get it Hungary, you like Russia. >

Now just sign here to leave NATO and join with Russia. >

And gtfo the EU while you're at it too, you leech >

And europe itself.  The Sea of Hungary >

Removing a country from NATO not only must it probably be unanimous, and don’t quote me on this, but I don’t believe there is any way to kick a country out. Never happened before and I don’t think theres even a way to do it legally >

There likely isn't even anything written in the charter about it, because the only way it could be accomplished is if a unanimous referendum, and anything short of that would destroy any faith in the alliance. Even doing it unanimously does serious damage. >

Kick them out. They have been openly pro putin. Their military is a joke anyway. >

Not worth it. Take a look at the map. They suckin Russian dick. Who else could have endangered them? Slovakia? They are probably already cut off from important operational information. >

NATO should remove Hungary from its alliance until Orban is gone.  In the meantime, NATO countries should begin cutting economic, cultural and travel ties to Hungary.
