Brussels’ policy of sanctions is “ill-advised and self-destructive”, Tamás Deutsch, the head of ruling Fidesz’s EP delegation, said on Wednesday, calling for the sanctions to be scrapped.
Fidesz’s European parliamentary group will continue to support changing Brussels’ “ill-advised and self-destructive” sanctions policy, Deutsch said in a statement. Those outside Europe who support Brussels’ sanctions policy consider the economic crisis about to hit EU member states along with soaring energy prices and inflation to be “collateral damage”, the MEP said. “It is time for Europe to finally represent its own interests so that the Brussels bureaucracy too will admit that the sanctions policy is ill-advised,” he said. “It causes greater economic damage to Europe’s national economies than to those it is targeting.”
“Our most important task is to have our voices heard as the sober-minded minority in the European Parliament that supports ending the sanctions,” Deutsch said.
Hungary’s government fulfilled its commitments, reaching an agreement with Brussels after a successful series of talks and clearing all legal and political obstacles to gaining access to EU funds, Deutsch said. He added, at the same time, that Brussels could be expected to throw more obstacles in Hungary’s way of gaining access to the monies.
Concerning the corruption scandal in the European Parliament, Deutsch called for eliminating “the corruption machine” in Brussels. He said most MEPs implicated in the scandal belonged to the Socialist group.
Deutsch said there was “no way” that the “Brussels bureaucracy” would change the system that was “politically useful to them”. “Only we, European voters can change this system in 2024,” he added, making reference to the EP elections.

So, every EP member thinks like a drunk – except the FIDESZ members, and they’s all wrong – except the FIDESZ members!
Great, I’m ever so happy to be a Hungarian, we’re never drunk and we’re never wrong!
Today, we’re facing another kind of “Hitler” (or a “Napoleon”) who thinks he can walk all over any sovereign country just because he wants to satiate his super-ego and achieve something no other Russian ever could.
Don’t anyone ever try and shove it down my throat that such great sacrifices as made by our forefathers to defeat Hitler (and his kind) weren’t worth it!
Orban has lost his mind! Nothing more to do besides building some funny flags everywhere for the next generation? I want a free car for all my troubles.
