PHOTOS: Hungarian president accepted Macron’s invitation to Paris but she visited somebody else first
Change language:
“We must find a common language that can lead us to a just peace as soon as possible,” President Katalin Novák said on Facebook after meeting former French president Nicolas Sarkozy in Paris on Thursday.
This was the reason, Novák said in an English-language post, she had accepted French President Emmanuel Macron’s invitation to the international Peace Forum in Paris. The president said she started the day by visiting “Hungary’s long-standing friend”, Sarkozy, whom she called a representative of the “grand generation”. She noted that the former president had been a “prominent shaper of French and European public life for a long time”.
Novák said her discussion with Sarkozy had centred on “how much Europe and the world needs Hungary acting as a bridge”. “We Hungarians are not only geographically located at the meeting point of East and West, North and South, but also understand the various nations and people, and are able to mediate between them,” Novák wrote. Novák said held a lecture on Hungary’s family policy and demographic challenges at the Institut de Philosophie Comparee in Paris later on Thursday.
So Mr. Sarkozy is allowed out of the house, again? Politicians who understand each other – convicted twice in one year for corruption with more to come, apparently:

Re birth rates – regardless of all the veiled replacement theory talk and how well we’re doing (let’s see if the economy has an impact…), we will need to start letting people in at some point:

Visiting Sarkozy first, then Macron? If that is not passive-aggressive, I don’t know what is
That’s what I call sticking it up Pres. Macron’s cakehole – even before seeing him.
