Europe’s security unimaginable without Russia, the Orbán cabinet believes
Change language:
Concerning Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s visit to Moscow last week, Bóka said the visit had not violated international or EU law, underlining that if the EU wanted to take steps to resolve the conflict in Ukraine, it had to keep communication channels with Moscow open.
In an interview with Euronews, the Hungarian minister highlighted Europe had to maintain a kind of relationship with Russia provided it wanted to protect itself. He added Moscow’s role is unquestionable if Europe wants to build a sustainable security system. He also highlighted that Hungary – like all EU members – supports the territorial integrity of a sovereign Ukraine.
Hungary to work on strengthening EU’s competitiveness during presidency
Budapest will be aiming to strengthen the European Union’s competitiveness during the Hungarian presidency of the Council of the European Union, János Bóka, the EU affairs minister, said in Brussels on Wednesday.
Outlining this month’s schedule of informal Council meetings in Hungary, Bóka told a press conference that these meetings would aim to shape the bloc’s competitiveness and political direction.
This month Hungary will host informal meetings of the EU’s environmental protection, justice and interior ministers, among others, he said.
The ministers in charge of environmental protection will discuss water management, while justice and interior ministers will cover cooperation among EU judicial bodies, the role of artificial intelligence in court proceedings, the fight against organised crime and migration, he added.
Too bad Orban was not around in 1940 to say Europe’s security is unimaginable without Nazi Germany. Fidesz is in alliance with 21st century Nazis. Mussolini did the same tour in 1940 that Orban just did now. Just as Mussolini told the British and French that they had to accept the occupation of Czechoslovakia and Poland now Orban does the same for Putin to encourage the West to accept Russia’s takeover of Ukraine. Orban is the 21st century Mussolini.
