It is rare to hear such discourse coming from Europe.

Well, I would not agree with Orbán on many things, but specifically on the Russo-Ukrainian war he acted as a political leader in the best traditions of Old Europe, privileging diplomacy and negotiations over the language of missiles and weapons and arms. And, if nothing else, one can rejoice to learn that Alessandro Orsini, an Italian sociologist and associate professor at LUISS University, think so: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q78qsFeUheI&ab_channel=AlessandroOrsini
In general, I believe that the majority of European people's wish is for diplomacy over war, but that their voice is silenced by the rhetoric of the good against the bad as a climax of the state of exception which, alas! always accompanies mankind's wars.
