Orbán: The EU would pay EUR 1.5bn for naked men to expose themselves to small children

Brussels is spending 1.5 billion euros “on campaigns similar to the gender sensitisation seen at last weekend’s Pride march,” the prime minister’s political director said in a video uploaded to Facebook on Tuesday.

Referring to a recent visit by European Union Commissioner Hadja Lahbib to Hungary, Balázs Orbán said the European politician “did not come to Hungary to speak about what is important to Hungarians but to inform the public … that 1.5 billion euros in European taxpayers’ money was available for campaigns similar to the gender sensitisation seen at last weekend’s Pride”. “Isn’t that appalling,” he added.

While farmers are being impoverished in Europe and ventures go bankrupt, and “even in the once opulent Western Europe they don’t have money for anything … there comes somebody saying that they have 1.5 billion euros just for naked men to expose themselves to small children,” Orbán said, adding that it was equal to “clear interference in the domestic affairs of a sovereign country”.

“European taxpayers’ money must not be spent on gender sensitisation… We cannot let that happen,” he said. The Patriot party group and the Hungarian government will “do everything to ensure that the money of European taxpayers is spent on meaningful, decent things rather than used to finance the gender [ideology],” Orbán added.
