Coercion may be a better term. Hungary claims to have been an unwilling beligerent in support of the Nazi's. They did commit a substanial military force to the Axis and can't be held innocent in the affairs of WWII or the Holocast.

Although Hungary had an antisemtic regime under Admiral Horthy from 1920-1944 and placed restrictions on its Jewish population, they did not want to kill them. As Hungary was an ally of Nazi Germany, the Nazis were for a long time not able to deport Hungarian Jews for gassing or forced labour. However, from May 1944 onwards the situation changed, and Hungarian Jews were sent to Auschwitz and elsewhere. Admiral Horthy, when he discovered what was actually going on, halted the deportations, but in October 1944 he was forced to accept a Hungarian Nazi government (the Arrow Cross Party) and the deportations started up again.
