Not everyone agrees: Opposition slams Orbán’s controversial speech
Opposition parties have criticised Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s speech at the Bálványos Summer University in Baile Tusnad, Romania, saying it had failed to address the problems of Hungarians.
Tisza Party’s criticism
The Respect and Freedom (Tisza) party said the prime minister’s speech had been about “Budapest-centric global politics” rather than the problems of the Hungarian people. The party criticised Orbán for failing to mention the state of the healthcare and education sectors, “the three million people living below the subsistence level and the hundreds of thousands who have fled abroad”.
Democratic Coalition’s criticism
The Democratic Coalition (DK) said Orbán’s politics wasn’t “building, but losing Hungary” and endangered the Hungarian people. “The blabber about a national strategy doesn’t obscure the strategic weakening of Hungary that is a consequence of the PM’s running amok historically and politically,” DK said in a statement.
Socialists’ criticism
The Socialist Party criticised the speech for not mentioning “the government’s misguided economic policy, the one billion euro loan taken from China, high inflation and the high public debt”. The party said it hoped the PM “was not laying the groundwork for pulling Hungary out of the European Union”.
Jobbik’s criticism
Jobbik-Conservatives welcomed the prime minister’s announcement on doubling family tax breaks for children, but said their solution would be to increase the tax break each year by at least the previous year’s inflation rate.

Well, what are they going to say: that their foreign paymasters (Soros, Schwab, E.U., etc.) are happy Orban is sticking up for Hungarians rather than implementing the former’s agenda like their other puppets all over the West?
Tisza is the funniest. Orban is not tackling “problems of the Hungarian people.” LOL! I’d say NO ILLEGAL MIGRATION, NO GENDER, NO WAR is PRECISELY dealing with ordinary Hungarians’ problems. After all, if we don’t have borders, if we don’t have peace, and if our kids’ minds get poisoned by alien ideologies, then nothing else matters anyway. It’s sheer common sense.
Steiner is a hysterical fountain of Fidesz propaganda. The method of Fidesz disinformation is to distract Hungarians from the decline in their prosperity by creating phantom enemies like Soros and non-issues like LGBTQ and exaggeration of the threat of migration. If you support the opposition you will no longer be protected from these nasty phantoms. Meanwhile you suffer from real problems with low wages, high prices , poor health care, poor schools and a country falling apart. The best question Ronald Reagan asked voters when he won against Jimmy Carter in 1980 was “Are you better off than you were four years ago?” Everyone in Hungary knows the answer to that question and now Hungary has the lowest living standard in the EU. Hungarians need to stop being fools of Orban, Fidesz and Russia.
Larry, since P.M. Orban’s visit, the US Secretary of State and Swiss Foreign Minister were in conference with Russian Foreign Minister. US and Russia exchanged prisoners.
These are concrete signs that behind closed doors, diplomacy is occurring. In the end, North American support will end. On the other hand, there is no concrete sign that China, N. Korea and Iran will withdraw support of Russia.
This is the first time that the possibility of WWIII if the Ukraine/Russia mess will escalate.
It is almost a certainty that if a Trump/Vance administration is elected, the EU will have to finance the was by itself.
