German far-right: Only Orbán can block Ukraine’s EU entry

Viktor Orbán is the only guarantee that Ukraine will not be admitted to the European Union, because the country fails to meet even the most basic accession criteria – including corruption standards – according to Alice Weidel, co-leader of Alternative für Deutschland (AfD).

Speaking in an interview on the programme MAXIMA with the editor-in-chief of Mandiner, Weidel argued that Ukraine’s economic performance and its political system make it unfit for EU membership.

She described the country as a “disordered and completely dysfunctional state” and said it should never be allowed into the bloc. According to her, countries such as Montenegro or Serbia would be far more suitable candidates, suggesting that Brussels had effectively “mixed them up” with Ukraine. She also stressed that Ukraine should not join NATO either.

‘Europe needs peace, not escalation’

Weidel said the AfD, similarly to Hungary’s governing parties, prioritises peace in Europe and believes dialogue must be maintained with both sides of the war. She criticised Berlin’s foreign policy, asking how Germany could afford to have poor relations simultaneously with the United States, China and Russia.

She called current European leadership “incredibly damaging”, warning that their actions were breaking so much “porcelain” that political processes could spiral out of control.

According to Weidel, the war in Ukraine is essentially a proxy conflict between Washington and Moscow, and only the United States has the leverage to broker peace. From Europe’s perspective, she added, the exact location of the Russian-Ukrainian border should be secondary to preventing further escalation.

She also criticised European leaders for strengthening Volodymyr Zelenskyy, claiming he lacks sufficient domestic support. Instead, she suggested Europe should withdraw, remain neutral and act as a mediator rather than trying to play a dominant geopolitical role.

Claims of Brussels influence in Hungary

Weidel further alleged that Brussels is exerting strong influence over Hungary’s elections to install the opposition leader in power. She labelled Magyar Péter “not credible” and a “puppet of Brussels”, arguing that he would tie Hungary more tightly to EU directives and weaken the country’s independence.

“I don’t believe he will be elected in April,” she said, “but this movement must be watched carefully, because Brussels is very clearly trying to interfere in the country’s internal politics.”

  1. And block it he will.

    That said, it’s only cosmetic, as with many tens of thousands of NATO personnel engaged, and dead, there, not to mention trillions of dollars sent from European and American taxpayers having already disappeared there, it, the so-called Ukraine, is already in NATO and the EU.

    Russia, however, has not been consulted, and, as it seems, they are exercising their veto.

    It still has not yet dawned on The Western Elite that nothing will occur in Western Russia without Russia’s blessing.
