  1. This guy is a joke, a total disappointment: yet another puppet of the globalist-socialist-fascist cabal calling the shots in the world. He is a loud advocate of mass migration (only into the West, of course), while surrounding himself with very high walls and not having accepted a single “refugee” into his opulent palaces.

    Yuck.

  2. His Holiness Pope Leo X1V could in meeting with Victor Mihaly. Orban – conduct the meeting along the following – a HISTORY lesson ;
    “Mr Prime Minister of Hungary – Victor Mihaly. Orban – you sat front row in the VIP area with your wife in Hero’s Square in your capital city – Budapest on the 20th August 1991.
    The Wall had Fallen.
    The occasion was the first of (2) visits he made to Hungary by Saint Pope John Paul 11.
    Present as you where at his Pontifical Mass in Hero’s Square in his homily these “blessed” words spoken to the people of Hungary ;
    ” Be Mindful of the Blessings that Freedom, which you Hungary have Definitively Secured means for your FUTURE”.
    Cherish it and make Good use of your Liberty.
    Mr Prime Minister – you heard those words, that to this day remain etched in stone on the location of the altar and pulpit, these “blessed” words “gifted” to Hungary, the FUTURE of Hungary after (44) years under Communism, the Government of Russia.
    Hungary, that day 20th August 1991 embraced supported by you, your “platform” – the FUTURE of Hungary was as a DEMOCRACY.
    Mr Prime Minister the “layers” of your political status in Hungary, over decades, as a Political Party leader in opposition or in Government, was solidly voiced the way of the Future for Hungary was under DEMOCRACY.
    Mr Prime Minister – why this “treason” on the word DEMOCRACY, that it is witnessed see’s Hungary, the distillation of DEMOCRACY undertaken by you and your Government, that has reversed DEMOCRACY the Governance of Hungary back to procedures and practices that your country from 1945 to 1989 had to live their lives in ?
    His Holiness Pope LeoX1V could “firmly” include in his meeting with Victor Mihaly. Orban, in the words of Saint Pope Paul V1 ;
    “If you want PEACE, work for Justice”.
    Victor Mihaly. Orban being a “Judas” what he has EFFECTED on the lives of millions upon millions of Hungarians over the course of (16) sixteen years as the Prime Minister of Hungary delivered Hungary to a place a country of catastrophe into a “new era” darkened abyss, unknown in its Nadir, that deeply threatens challenges the FUTURE of Hungary.
    Victor Mihaly. Orban his Fidesz Government have NOTHING, absolutely Nothing, nothing to contribute to the FUTURE of Hungary – NOTHING that must see their DOWNFALL in the Spring of 2026 National Elections in Hungary.

  3. Along with pretend Christian Orban “Zsolti bacsi” is meeting the Pope! This is too crazy. Will Pope Leo have anything to say about Orban’s years long persecution of his former pastor including the dismantling of the pastor’s school for disabled children? As pastor Gabor Ivanyi said the Fidesz government represents “a bitter caricature of Christianity”.
