Govt spokesperson: Orbán “did not hint at Hungary leaving EU”

2022 Hungarian parliamentary election Germany Hungarian government Hungary Viktor Orbán

Government Spokesman Zoltán Kovács on Sunday decried a foreign media report saying that Prime Minister Viktor Orbán “hinted at Hungary leaving the European Union” in his keynote speech delivered on Saturday.

In a statement at the website of the state secretariat for government communication, Kovács said “While PM Orbán did talk about the challenges of the Hungary-European Union relationship,” he did not hint at Hungary leaving the bloc, as German news agency dpa stated in its headline.

“The most important thing is whether we want to stay together. Especially here in Europe because the European Union only has a future if we can stay together despite the growing cultural alienation.

We, for our part, want to keep the European Union together, and that is why we have repeatedly made offers of tolerance to Brussels and to Berlin,” Kovács cited Orbán as saying in his Saturday address.

Hungary does not expect from Brussels to adopt Hungary’s policies on migration, families or foreign affairs, Kovács said, making reference to the prime minister’s address. At the same time, “neither can they demand that we adopt theirs,” he said.

 

This DE press got it wrong. PM Orbán didn’t hint at leaving EU. On the contrary, he said: “We, for our part, want to keep the EU together… the EU only has a future if we can stay together.” Behold, the German fake news factory at work (cc: @dpa_intl )https://t.co/vDk5mlsC6d

Kovács said that Orbán, contrary to what dpa said in its headline, had highlighted the importance of the bloc staying together, having a common future and western and central European member states showing tolerance for each other.

“So, why did the editors at DPA come up with this ridiculous, sensationalist headline? Because this is how Germany’s fake news factory works,” Kovács said.

    While the statement about Orban speaking about leaving the EU may have been untruthful, The truth of the matter is Hungary should leave the EU because long term Hungary has no future if it remains in it. Fact of the matter all the eastern EU members should withdraw from the EU and form their own loose federation and tell Brussels and the Soros lap dogs to stuff it.
