According to Orbán, Brussels cannot see real problems in Europe
Change language:
Brussels cannot see the real problems in Europe, therefore, “our goal in the European parliamentary elections is to open the eyes of Brussels,” Prime Minister Viktor Orbán told an international press briefing on Thursday.
The European parliamentary elections are at the centre of next year’s political goals, the prime minister said. He said the general view in Hungary was that “the bureaucrats in Brussels live in a bubble”, that “Brussels is blind” and could not see “real life” and ignored the problems that people struggle with, both in Hungary and in the whole of Europe.
Orbán said the goal of the 2024 EP election therefore was to “open the eyes of Brussels, make them see reality and make European leaders capable of correcting the mistakes that they made in 2023”.
He said this year had been one of “great struggles” and 2024 would be “a year of great plans”, adding that Hungary will try to achieve a significant political change in the EP elections.
Orbán: New EU migration pact ‘certain to fail’
The new migration pact agreed on by the European Union is “certain to fail”, Orbán said.
Until the EU declares, as Hungary has, that those who want to enter the bloc’s territory must submit an application to do so and wait outside the EU’s borders for their request to be assessed, any package that is introduced will fail, Orbán said.
The prime minister said he was convinced that Hungary’s way of regulating migration was the “model regulation” and the only one in all of Europe that had been proven to work.
Orbán: Goal is for families to be in focus in 2024
The goal in 2024 is to return the focus of politics to families after a year of “great struggles”, Orbán said.
If Hungarians spent 2023 “struggling and working to protect what they had”, the government hopes that the country will be working to take a step forward in 2024, Orbán said.
The prime minister said 2023 had been a year of “great struggles”, noting the challenges of the war, the growing threat of terrorism, migration, inflation and Brussels.
He said the government had accomplished its goals when it came to addressing inflation, the war, migration and the threat of terrorism.
All EU can see what the problem is. The problem is Orbánistan and its satrap.
Our Politicians know a thing or two about water quality:

“Over a third of Hungarian municipalities grapple with poor drinking water quality, as outlined in a recent report by the Public Health Authority, offering an in-depth analysis of the situation across these localities/”
So. even our Politicians concede that Hungarians spent 2023 “struggling and working to protect what they had”. Much was down to choices. Please consider this analysis (and, no, it was not “Brussels”):

Regarding wage increases – we are still experiencing the EU´s highest inflation (slowing inflation does not mean prices are not going up).

Stupid other EU Members! Hungary shows the way! If only.
