CNN wanted to spread fake news about Hungary? – VIDEO
Péter Szijjártó, the Foreign Minister of Hungary has been interviewed by the American news channel CNN live on Monday evening about the Hungarian Government’s standpoint on a variety of questions.
The reporter of the left-leaning news channel CNN asked the Hungarian Foreign Minister about vaccination, accusations of not abiding rule of law, and the upcoming Hungarian elections in spring 2022.
Origo wrote that CNN reporter asked Péter Szijjártó why Hungary has a “quite low” vaccination rate and what the Hungarian Government is doing to counter that as well as about the fact that Hungary has re-joined the EU program for procuring vaccines.
Péter Szijjártó responded that Hungary’s inoculation rate is currently 70% but the government intends to up this number to 100%. The Foreign Minister emphasised that this would be very much feasible as there are enough jabs available and Hungary has launched its vaccination drive last week. The vaccination drive allows people to get the jab without the need to pre-register.
Thanks to the vaccination drive, over 784,000 people have received vaccinations, with over 96,000 people getting their first jab.
Szijjártó also highlighted that even though Hungary is behind in total vaccination rate, it is among the leading countries in the number of people who received their booster jabs. According to him, around 35-36% of the people who were eligible for it had already received their vaccination.

CNN then asked Szijjártó about a letter sent to Hungary by the European Commission on rule of law and EU fund topics. According to Szijjártó the Hungarian Government will respond to the letter. As he was trying to give explanations to the issues, the reporter suddenly asked why Hungary is an EU member state while changing the subject to the so-called “homophobic law” which has been passed this summer.
Szijjártó explained the difference in view of the EU and Hungary and has refuted the accusation that Hungary has passed a “homophobic law”. He explained that the Hungarian Government has passed a child protection law and placed the matter of sexual education in the hands of parents.

Hvg writes that the next question was about Péter Szijjártó’s previous statement in an interview that was given to the Financial Times. According to the interviewer, the United States would interfere in the upcoming elections in Hungary in 2022.
Szijjártó said that the Hungarians are used to being influenced by both the West and the East throughout the history of the country, adding that the
Hungarian secret services have detected preparations that certain entities would like to influence the public in Hungary.

C.N.N= Communist News Network. They are Americas least trusted news source with its prime time viewership showing some programs with less than 500 thousand viewers on average. Nothing out of their mouths is truthful or without a leftist agenda. They are on the verge of bankruptcy.
CNN – personify in the standard of there News Reporting inclusive of International News Reporting – the ongoing trend downwards of a country – that is the United States of America – a population of 331 million, with just 52% of there population Vaccinated, that can’t find a “middle ground” through its ongoing imploding as a country, that sees and “hides” itself – “veiled” – claiming they America – as a country – function and operate – under a Political system of Democracy.
CNN likened to “other” journalistic writings and opinions – comments from an array of individuals, that claim they are American, that continues this trend, in putting down, dirtying the brand name – of Hungary globally – in there vile style – gutter style – of media communication and opinions into the Global World.
America – the agenda of CNN – displays, growing in respected opinions, that witnessed we are seeing them, falling deeper into an abyss – an empire, that was thought to be an – Economic Powerhouse of the World, – that today is a crumbling and falling – SHAMBLES.
What we have to remember is, nothing this corrupt government does is for the interests of Hungary or its people. EVERYTHING this corrupt government does is purely for their OWN POLITICAL GAINS AND GREED. They’ve enjoyed their abuse of power and don’t want to lose it. They care for no one but themselves and will DO ANYTHING and SAY ANYTHING to stay in power. By filtering and suppressing media content, and by spreading their fake news they hope we remain in ignorance.
People fully vaccinated in Hungary: 61 %, not 70 %
Booster: 23 %, not 35 %
Szijjarto is a liar.
CNN is a garbage news outlet, especially when their star anchor, Cuomo, was trying to defend his disgrace brother (former Governor of New York).
Péter Szijjártó superbly handled this interview, as always.
CNN is fake news for sure. I don’t know if CNN or MSNBC is worse but they are both as low as a network can get…
Szijjártó perfectly explained the Hungarian child protection law and why protecting Hungarian children do not discriminate against anyone.
Did Szijjártó say this? I don’t think so.
“Thanks to the vaccination drive, over 784,000 people have received vaccinations, with over 96,000 people getting their first jab.”
According to the above article, CNN is ‘left leaning’.
NONSENSE !
For those readers who are not aware, CNN actually stands for “COMMUNIST NITWIT NEWS”.
As such, it is no better than those neo-Communist NINCOMPOOPS at ‘Berlaymont’ in Brussels.
CNN is not known for telling the truth!
CNN is a tool of the h the globalist, internatinoalist George Soros and other elitists in Europe.
The fake news is the government propaganda that some people here (in the DNH comments section) are stupid enough to buy hook line sinker.
Alfred E. Neuman is the fictitious mascot and cover boy of the American humor magazine Mad. .. Says it all really.
@Mike Hall, please check your facts.https://www.pewresearch.org/journalism/fact-sheet/cable-news/
Sweeping, inaccurate comments are checked.
CNN is the lowest even for fake-news
Ask them submit questions in advance like the WH and you will decide if they are a smear. Everything and everyone is racist and a white supremest to the left.
They will demanding the country should be returned to the Turks and HU must pay reparations.
Everyone should read the The Laptop From Hell- the Biden family has been on the take for 30 years. Nothing new to anyone that has paid attention. The story was shut down by big tech and the Dems before the election.
Just to correct Szijjarto on his figures
As of 2 December fully vaccinated 60%
As of 2 December booster 27%
He was way off. Plus, can’t seem to find anywhere (other than in Hungarian media) that we’re at the top of the EU list for boosters. We can’t just take their word for it can we!
As far as the CNN network is concerned, you would have to be brain dead to believe a single word that this MSM spouts out this left wing Garbage.
As far as the Vaccination is concerned, in the UK i know of four sheeple who have been double-jabbed and within two months went on to get covid and to be ill , just the same as folks who caught this virus who were not jabbed. I am trying to hold out against being jabbed as long as possible however, if i must take a jab due to travel necessity , i will go with the Astra Zeneca as my sister has had two of these with no side effects ( last shot six months ago ) and so that seems the best choice for me.
The good news about the new Omicron mutation is that although more contagious , it is far less dangerous to humans and epidemiologist’s are saying that this mild covid could be the best ” vaccine” to give us all long lasting immunity . Covid has a survival rate of over 99% and is certainly not the Plague.
We must all stop living in fear and anxiety as this is what the Globalists want , in order to control our thoughts and to keep their ‘ vaccine” sales going every year ! Wake up sheeple…….
