European democracy has floundered, “so we want to restore democracy in Europe”, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán told reporters in Brussels on Thursday.
Arriving at a summit of EU leaders, Orbán said the reason why European democracy was struggling was that European leaders were ignoring the will of the people.
“The people want two things,” Orbán said.
“One is that we don’t allow in any more migrants while ensuring very strong border protection. The other is that those who have already entered [Europe] are taken back [to their home countries].”
The prime minister said the restoration of European democracy would have to be addressed in the coming months and would be topped off by next year’s European parliamentary elections.
He said the question now was whether European leaders would move in this direction with proposals to enable refugee camps to be set up outside the EU. There is a chance that talks in Brussels will move towards rebuilding European democracy, he added.
“We belong to the camp of the democrats,” Orbán said.
“The European solution means addressing the problem on the basis of the most important European principle … the number one value being democracy.”
“In order to achieve a European solution, democracy must be rebuilt in the European Union, and Hungary is ready to take part,” the prime minister said.

Very well F’ken said to the Lib-turds in Brussells. Orban Victor is a true ‘Democratic’ leader !! Not a Western Dictator that doesn’t ever check in with their own national majority/communities and explain things that will be going to happen. Instead the non-elected EC Auto-Dicktocrats in Brussels decide on which illegal-migrants are coming to live in your house. Merkel, Drunker and Macadamia Nut should all be made to go live in a migrant camp for a year to get it up the ass as per their own design.
What?
@ANONYMOUSE,
Which part of Immigrant Troll go home, did you not get?
Surprising, or not, members of the European Parliament do not want to provide insight information how they have spent their expense allowances at € 4,500 per month! Where the European Parliament is attacking Hungary regarding fraud made by the Gyurcany-administration, where they attack Hungary for building a fence to protect their people (and people in Germany, Belgium and Holland, where they accept the fact that the Controlling Commission of the EU will not sign the Annual Reports for decennia! They keep their jaws stiffly together. € 40 million is thrown out of the windows every year because of expenses but nobody knows where that is spent on! The European Parliament has 751 members and each receive € 4,500 per month for ‘expenses’. This is added to the gross salary of € 8.611 per month. Completely absurd that they get so much extra and also that they do not want to make it clear where that money is spent on! It is in fact intended for travel, telephones and office accessories. Chances are that the champagne is sprayed daily against the ceilings! The expenses allowance, known as GEA, occurred in a series of proposals that had to make clear how the money was spent and by whom this should then be checked. The proposals have all been brought down. One of the proposals was that the unused money had to be repaid again. Of course, the parliamentarians were not waiting for it! That they want to keep their expenses secret is of course not nice to hear for them but to understand clearly to us, taxpayers. They are labeled as ‘short-sighted’ by the initiators of the proposals. They believe that such proposals would promote confidence in the EU. That graders do not feel like it and prefer to pee away € 4,500 every month on expensive dinners instead of actually making something of the EU (although I would rather see him cut off) was therefore to be expected again.
