According to MEP Márton Gyöngyösi (Non-attached) and leader of the party, Opposition Jobbik Movement for a Better Hungary has changed its name to Jobbik – Conservatives.

This is the only party in Hungary to represent civic values and a consistent centre-right policy, he said. Contrasting the other opposition parties with the governing Fidesz, the president said the former are trying to adopt the West’s “lifestyle-leftism”, while the latter is building a real communist regime, complete with a cult of personality, excessive state intervention and price fixing.

 The president believes Jobbik – Conservatives needs to reach out to the middle class and conduct the kind of policy that was first adopted by Hungary’s late centre-right Prime Minister József Antall who set out in the footsteps of Robert Schuman and Konrad Adenauer after the collapse of Communism. Gyöngyösi identified the representation of a European yet patriotic policy as his party’s most important goal. With its new image, Jobbik – Conservatives will focus on the respect for human dignity.

Hungary’s EU membership was also a central topic of the event.

The president of Jobbik – Conservatives said: Europe has been the symbol of security, freedom and welfare for seventy years.

Jobbik – Conservatives will stop at nothing to prevent the national tragedy that would be brought on by a potential Huxit. Europe has stood for freedom, democracy and human dignity which Putin wants to destroy, first in Ukraine, then in the whole of Europe. However, there are some politicians who feel closer to the people who are responsible for the Russian massacre than to the leaders of the free world. One of them is Viktor Orbán, who openly serves Moscow’s interest to undermine the European Union.
