FM Szijjártó does not want remarks from US on Hungarian democracy
In light of recent attempts to block former President Donald Trump from running in next year’s presidential elections in the United States, the government will not accept any criticism from the US on the state of democracy in Hungary, the foreign minister said on Thursday.
Answering a question at a press conference held after meeting his North Macedonian counterpart, Péter Szijjártó said that “we do not want to hear remarks anymore from the Americans on how democracy is in Hungary, how institutions work and what the situation with the state of the rule of law is”.
He said Hungary would not accept any criticism over its political system from a country where a candidate who has the most chance might be disqualified from the presidential race. Szijjártó said the exclusion of Donald Trump “would be very bad news also because he is the one to trust when it comes to creating peace”. He insisted that the former US president was the only politician who had achieved success in stabilising the situation in the Middle East in the past decades.

Foreign Minister Szijjarto is the only western politician that dares to voice the truth. The socialist democrats in the US are doing everything in their power to stop President Trump from running for a second term. These Marxists do not trust the people of the country to make the right decision in the next election. That is exactly the erosion of democracy. This erosion is practiced in the USA and in the EU, simply by persecuting opposition like in Ukraine, controlling free speech, ignoring the rule of law, e.g. not deporting illegal aliens, just so that the establishment can hang onto power. Well said Hungarian Foreign Minister Szijjarto.
If I were a Politician, I would refrain from any remarks until all the various court cases are wrapped up.
If Mr. Trump would not have been a former President and someone with influence and money, he would be incarcerated, awaiting trail as some of his supporters. Interestingly, re the money … He does have his supporters fund his lawsuits and engaged a bond bailsman to funds his bail. Odd billionaire. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equal_justice_under_law
Everyone around him appears to be headed to jail … Mr. Bannon, Mr. Navarro, Mr. Cohen, Mr. Flynn, Mr. Gates, Mr. Manafort, Mr. Papadopoulos, Mr. Tarrio and his Proud Boys, I am sure the list is incomplete … Coincidence?
Clown Szijjarto can cover his ears.
There is nothing in the American Constitution that stops Mr. Trump from running; Mr. Trump is innocent until proven guilty in court.
Kim Jong Un, North Korean Dictator is visiting President Putin. North Korea is ready to resupply Russia’s depleted arsenal. This will expand participation in the war. President Biden warned Kim Jong Un not to help Russia, the dictator is only laughing at Biden. Retired American Generals on TV have been saying that the Ukrainian offensive failed. How much are the citizens of Ukraine are supposed to sacrifice for Biden’s proxy war? Presently, also more than 50% of the US population are against further support of Ukraine.
Hungary’s veto has more to do wanting peace for the people of Ukraine rather than siding with Russia. There are ethnic Hungarians living in Ukraine. Presently Hungary is hosting Ukrainian refugees. Supporting peace may be the right thing.
Peter talks to much. Maria seems to eat up every lie he says. Does Maria support a convicted sexual assaulter for president of her adopted country? Says a lot about her. Also, Peter supports him, when there is ample proof that Donald was a sexual predator on underage girls for his entire life. Does Peter support sexual predators? Tell us Peter, you seems to open your mouth about every other thing.
Peter in the Closed, people who are familiar with shopping in US stores and department stores know that there is no way President Trump molested or raped anyone in women’s dressing room. Usually, there are many women in the dressing room. When women go in the dressing room, taking many pieces of clothing, there are salesclerks around to ensure either return or payment for merchandise. Males are never allowed into women’s change rooms. In Blue States, no Republican can win a case. The juries are usually seated with rabid democrats. Yes, the verdict is unjust, therefore, I would not hesitate to support President Trump.
