Hungary's voting rights at the European Union should be suspended under Article 7 after that country has once again gone against the bloc's majority will on Ukraine and taken a stance more favorable to Russia, Estonian Minister of Foreign Affairs Margus Tsahkna (Eesti 200) said Friday.
The only one that backed Hungary’s bullshit was Poland and they recently had a change in government and are in general not a big fan of Russia or the way Hungary is sucking up to them
Polish autocrats are gone (replaced by approved neoliberal autocrats but that’s another story). You have Slovakia that will reject this obviously. Behind Slovakia there’s probably Austria and half of Eastern European members and that’s just for the obvious ones. There are likely issues getting it by other small member states who will be threatened by the precedent.

Now there’s Slovakia, and by the end of the year they might be joined by Czechia.
