Hungarian foreign minister condemns Kamala Harris for labeling Orbán an autocratic dictator
Hungarian Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó has strongly criticised US Vice President Kamala Harris for her comments regarding Prime Minister Viktor Orbán. Speaking to the Russian state news agency RIA Novosti, Szijjártó expressed his indignation:
“First of all, this is outrageous. It’s unacceptable to speak about my Prime Minister in such a manner. It shows a complete lack of respect for him and the Hungarian people,” he said.
During an interview on Wednesday, Kamala Harris, a Democratic presidential candidate, was asked about Donald Trump’s relationships with various world leaders, including President Vladimir Putin, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, Chinese President Xi Jinping, and North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un. In response, Kamala Harris described them as:
“Dictators, autocrats, and people who could rightly be called killers.”
For several days, the Hungarian government refrained from officially responding to the remarks. This delay was in part due to Szijjártó’s busy schedule, as he was visiting Russia for the 11th time since the outbreak of the war, attending the International Gas Forum.

However, Szijjártó has now addressed the issue.
“We have always shown respect towards the American people and expect the same respect in return. Such statements reflect an utter lack of respect, which is unacceptable, especially between allies,” Szijjártó told RIA Novosti.
When asked whether Harris’s comments would affect Hungarian-American relations, Szijjártó warned that if she were to become the next president, it would not bode well for the future of bilateral relations.
Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, along with Minister Szijjártó and the rest of the Orbán government, offered their full support to Donald Trump both during and before his campaign, prompting accusations of the Hungarian government interfering in the US election. Despite this, the Orbán administration frequently cautions other countries against meddling in Hungary’s internal affairs. It is also noteworthy that while the Hungarian government deems it crucial to maintain ties with Putin due to Russia’s global influence, the Biden administration, one of the world’s most powerful governments, has repeatedly clashed with and openly criticised the US President.

Foreign Minister and of Trade – Peter Szijjarto – the “Love Child” of his cherished, adored Demigod, his high ranking as a Gofer to the present pressurized Prime Minister of Hungary – the “Judas” of Hungary – Victor Mihaly. Orban – to 9.6 million Hungarian citizens – his acknowledgement “rewards” he has ACCEPTED from Mother Russia and China, the toeing and living – of the Fidesz Party line that DEMOCRACY be eradicated following on the years of Victor Mihaly. Orbans process of its DISTILLATION in Hungary – continues in acts of CLUELESSNESS in his Ministry.
Szijjarto – the decayed now position of no respectability for him, as a Hungarian Government Minister, not just in the European Union, but Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the United States of America, the GLOBAL World of country’s Governed as DEMOCRACY’s.
Embarrassment to Hungary this individual is, that as the coming GARGANTUAN pressure on his Demigod builds – correctness of wraths various will rain down upon him – Peter Szijjarto for his role, in delivering Hungary to the DISASTEROUS place we currently as a country are placed, which includes the High Risk(s) of Foreign relationships most of which have been DESTROYED by the Orban – Fidesz Governments style there “Creed” being Autocratic.
Detestable – for ALL the right and factual reason(s).
Szojjarto is the ready assistant of the fat man autocratic leader and bootlicker of Russians. Of course he was speaking to a Russian news agency when he made his remarks of indignation.
As Hungarian – Americans , please understand that the ramblings of Harris do NOT reflect the feelings of the vast majority of the American public. It is just an attempt to bring in more fringe elements into the Democrat Party with rhetoric not based in fact.
She is right tho.
She is right tho.
the truth is always painful…
F.M. Szijjarto is right. Harris allowed 13,000 murderers, 18,000 child molesters and overall, 425,000 convicted criminals with her open border policy. She is not qualified to be a dog catcher. She does not understand the word Christian Conservative Populous Government. She is a socialists; her policies border on communism. She should be ignored. With God’s help she will disappear after Nov. 5th.
Orban, Scijjarto and all the other lackeys that think That the Fascist Dick-Tator wannabe Trump gives a fat rats ass about them, they are even dumber than we thought. If they think the American people give a damn what they think, “Victor Who”, is or how badly his feelings are hurt because he was disrespected,that’s too bad for him. His own countryman hate him, Why should we give a shit. Run to Putin, and see what you get from him.
Maria Von Theresa why is it ok for supposed Christian conservatives to lie?
Do you have evidence of these claims, outside US RWNJ & white Christian nationalist media?
To be fair, many Hungarians do the same on other issues…. learnt from Hungarian middle class elites?
The war in Ukraine would never have happened if trump was president- if he doesn’t not returned – the EY will be F——
The biggest election interfearance in my life time. Soros inc alone has turned the justice system to stalinjustice. He is also the biggest money behind the left wing in the US and the EU. The anti Orban comments here are Soros funded NGOs
Europe will be affected by who is US president as the US- I love how the revolt in 2014 by the US is ignored . the US continues to be control until today
The war would never have happened it the stupid voters of Ukraine elected anyone but Zelensky. The Ukraine/Russia war would never have happened if Ukraine would have declared neutrality. Those are facts.
Kamal has never met P.M. Orban. her advisors told her that the P.M. favors reelection of former President Trump, therefore he must be insulted. Kamala has not had an independent idea in her head; all you have to do is watch her give speeches, her word salad and complete ignorance to continue talking if the teleprompter stops working.
I have followed Kamala’s career for the last 5 years. She has failed at every endeavor. Open border is probably her biggest failure.
Someone should explain why some of you support a totally incompetent woman against probably against American families.
P.M. Orban may not have succeeded in all, but his policies were patriotic rather than allowing EU dictatorship and EU globalists to rob the 1,000-year-old country blind.
Just picture Hungary with the 400,000 criminals that invaded the country; that was EU’s plan for the country.
Update…
Kamala was interviewed by Fox newsman Bret Baier. If you were lucky to watch the interview, you would realize Kamala made no sense nor anything she said made sense.
Oi vontheresa, your rambling monologue is just that, factless BS as spewed by your demigod Trumpty Dumpty. Every time you offer evidence of fact the source always lands at the door of the fake news creators.
I have heard Trumpty Dumpty, his speeches are the demented ramblings of a madman, and you want that as a president with his fingers in the nuclear button!
Why is it that when someone is critical of the Orban government, somehow this gets twisted into being anti Hungarian? It’s the government we don’t like not the country. Criticising a political party or government is a Democratic right of freedom.
FIDESZ got 50% of the votes cast in an election that had a less than 60% turn out, this means that he only received 35% from the entire electorate. Which is hardly a mandate for FIDESZs had line anti democratic policies.
I could say more but you are probably not intelligent enough to understand.
