Fidesz is still repeating that Brussels is pro-war

Brussels is “pro-war”, and instead of building Europe’s peace, it is building war, Tamás Menczer, the communications director of ruling Fidesz, said on Wednesday.

Marking the 20th anniversary of Hungary’s EU accession, Menczer said in a video on Facebook that at the time of joining the bloc, Hungary and the EU had two shared goals that there should be peace and prosperity in Europe. “But today we’re missing two of these: peace and prosperity,” he said. “That’s why we say that change is needed in Brussels.”

Menczer said the EU had promised “that we would respect each other; that member states would respect each other and the Brussels-based institutions would respect member states”. “Yet we Hungarians are not respected. They blackmail and pressure us because of our pro-peace stance,” he said. “Brussels is pro-war and isn’t building Europe’s peace, but war. That’s why we say that change is needed in Brussels.”

He said all of the decisions taken by the EU on sanctions affecting the economy and the energy sector were and are destroying the European standard of living, and urged voters to send MEPs to the EU on June 9 who truly valued Europe’s peace and prosperity.

  1. Amazingly, our Politicians are right and the other twenty six (26) European Union Members are wrong. Our Politicians´ arguments are so weak that they are unable to convince even one single other Member to join Hungary´s position.

    Outside of the EU, even the United Kingdom and Switzerland do not share our Politicians´ position. Again. Pretty amazing.

  2. Because it is. Much as I hate to admit it, it’s clear that Ukraine is not going to win this. Russia is likewise not going to give up. The only sensible thing to do is to negotiate a settlement. Territories change hands all the time. Yes, it sticks in the craw and it rewards a brutal aggressor. The alternative outcome, however, is what? That’s what the supposed “pro-Ukrainian” (really: pro-military-industrial complex) advocates never explain.

  3. 10 years ago the US, EU along with Nato and add the Ukraine Nazi militia were out to oust the twice elected government while yelling for democracy. Why don’t they have an election today because we know what would happen if it was a fare election. Europe has twice the population of the US , yet it is the US tax payers are funding the war. The EU was all for making Ukraine a member and that’s what this is all about. The EU is too weak to do anything even if it wanted to.

  4. @michaelsteiner – if you read history … It’s highly improbable that Nazi Germany would have been defeated in World War II without the assistance of the United States. We could very well have all been speaking German – if not for US aid.

    The contributions of the United States, both in terms of military power and economic support, were highly significant factors in the Allied victory.

    So yeah. Perhaps the UK should have sued for peace in 1940 / 1941. Being very realistic, of course. Then again, the whole appeasement thing did not really work out at the time, did it now?

    History does not repeat – it rhymes!

  5. Fidesz – the Political Party led by the current Prime Minister of Hungary, growing, in EMBARRASSMENT, with NO contribution of FACT’s – just ABSOLUTE lack of understanding, to the circumstances, the European Union, Great Britain & Northern Ireland, the United States of America plus, as referred Switzerland, and ALL Global countries Governed under DEMOCRACY, this Orban – Fidesz Government, through it’s on-going DISPLAY by the Ministers of the Orban – Fidesz Government, exhibiting “throwing out” comments like Tamas Menczer has in the subject of this title – that just ADD’s to the “Fuelling” of the name Hungary, being no longer aligned to DEMOCRACY.
    Tamas Menczer – could he answer, why Hungary from a Wealth & Prosperity situation of Economic & Financial “grading” is RANKED at number 26 of the 27 countries that form the Family of the European Union ?
    WHO do you BLAME – Tamas Menzer ?
    In answer to this QUESTION – from Hungary’s gargantuan erosion, our DECLINE as a country, the Nadir, as to the end of it’s worsening Financial & Economic picture, it’s MASSIVE escalating DEBT problem, through it’s BORROWINGS, the likelihood, through growing PRESSURIZATION on Hungary, besides it’s the “free falling” state – of it’s Economic & Financial “landscape” – that the entire INFRASTRUCTURE of Hungary, pressure MOUNTS, that it will succumb, to forces, that will see it’s COLLAPSE.
    WHO do YOU BLAME – Tamas Menzer ?
    We will assist – two names to start with, who are TOTALLY of OWNERSHIP for the MESS – Financially and Economically that is Hungary to-day.
    The names – Victor Orban and the Minister of Finance – Mihaly Varga.
    Tamas Menzer – you won’t change from being a “Lemming” to Victor Orban, but history will judge you – as it WILL – the Political Party of your Membership, the WRONGFULNESS you PRACTICED – “towing” the Orban way(s) – his Political Ideas and Philosophy – Ideology, that have SMASHED our country – Hungary.
    Tamas Menzer – over the past 14 years – your personal PROSPERITY – your wealth – it CERTAINLEY has NOT declined ?
    Hungary, millions it grows the evaporation of LIFE Quality, of personal savings, assets – in Cities, towns, villages and hamlets – there FUTURE absolutely CRUSHED – in millions of cases “Finished off” – that HAS far from being OVER.
    Hungary rated 26 of 27 in the country’s of the Family of European Country’s – our PROSPERITY statistically per citizen – per population number – APPALLING.
    Tamas Menzer, you by your “LEMMING” behaviour, the following and practice – of the Orban “Jargon” – you can, never WILL escape, that YOU are also a contributor to these CRIPPLING facts and the SMASHED place, we Hungary are left to live in, after 14 years of the Orban – Fidesz Government.

  6. Look at facts people. All governments supplying money and weapons to a warring country cannot be said to be advocating for peace. Brussels is pro war. There is evidence to backed up by Brussels’ actions. What a simple statement and yet the socialist haters of Hungarians and Hungarian government can write essays deprecating country and people.

    It is time for you “naysayers” to admit it was the right of Hungarians to elect a government of their choice and reelect any government that responds to their needs. The FIDESZ government carries out its mandate. No, you are not nationalists, you are all pro EU and globalists ready to cede sovereignty. Hungary tried socialism and had communism, neither form of government worked. It is time for you to accept that you are in a minority. Since Hungary is a free country, you are free to leave and live in a socialist country that pays you to tell lies.

    Furthermore, if coexistence with Russia supplies Hungary with oil/gas, natural resources that improve the lives of Hungarians, Russia should be Hungary’s best friend. On the other hand, Ukraine oppressed the Hungarian minority, demolished Hungarian churches, Ukrainians physically assault Hungarian young boys speaking their mother language, Hungary should actually attack the Nazi loving nation, a nation that murdered 100,000+ Polish people and 60 thousand Jewish people.
