I thought that a reasonable amount of Hungarians would have learnt Russian in the Soviet years.
Also I think that many of the people training Ukrainians are doing it in Britain anyway, like the Norwegians and New Zealanders.

If I were a Hungarian political leader, I would try to make a deal with the EU whereby they would give back some of the funding that was cut in return for Hungary training Ukrainian soldiers.
That should please both sides and even make it look less bad to Russia as they would think you were only acting out of self interest.

>I still think they could have been used better in the next defensive line.
Same. But it looks like they are desperately trying to keep the route open, they have 4 brigades opposing the northern pincer and 2 for the southern one. Plus other units.
They might still be able to stage a break out, though they also might think that those brigades will permanently be able to secure the road in and that they don't need to break out as well, and maybe that will work for them maybe it will backfire.
