“Dear Donald, don’t raise your hopes too high”, said PM Orbán, then criticised his own son-in-law’s luxury life
Polish Premier Donald Tusk talked earlier about a possible Huxit, but PM Orbán reacted in a harsh X (Twitter) post, clearing his plans concerning the EU. Later, Orbán criticised his own son-in-law, the husband of Ráhel Orbán, István Tiborcz, one of the wealthiest Hungarians, for his luxurious life.
Will Hungary leave the EU?
According to Infostart, Orbán reacted to Donald Tusk’s Huxit speculations in an X tweet. He said, “Dear Donald, don’t raise your hopes too high. Hungary will not leave the EU. We will transform it with the @PatriotsEU, to restore it to what it once was when Poland and Hungary joined. Back then, Brussels bureaucrats served the people instead of themselves. Back then…”
Before, Donald Tusk wrote in an X post that “PM Orbán is now speaking openly about Hungary leaving the European Union. It was worth winning the elections so Kaczyński’s dream of a “Budapest in Warsaw” would never come true. That is also at stake in the upcoming elections”, Tusk added.
The traditional friendship between Poland and Hungary reached historic depths in the last few years due to the differing stances of Budapest and Warsaw concerning the ongoing war in Ukraine, Russia’s position in Europe and how a country should react to Russia’s expansion plans.
We wrote HERE that on Wednesday, Orbán participated in a forum in Pilisvörösvár and said it would not be a good idea to leave the EU now because it would not be better outside, and a Huxit would not do good for our trade. However, he added that Trump asked him to leave the EU. Therefore, RTL Klub asked the Hungarian PM whether he regarded that bid as an intervention into Hungary’s sovereignty. Orbán only said it depends on whether Trump was joking.
Orbán expressed criticism about István Tiborcz’s luxury life
Orbán’s oldest daughter, Ráhel Orbán, married István Tiborcz in September 2013. Since then, Tiborcz has become one of the wealthiest Hungarians. In 2024, he was the 15th wealthiest, doubling his assets in only one year. We covered how he got rich in THIS article.
After the Pilisvörösvár forum, 24.hu asked PM Orbán whether he understands people who are outraged by the luxurious life some politicians, businesspeople wearing luxury bags, using luxury cars, lead. Orbán gave a laconic answer: “Of course”. Photos of Orbán’s son-in-law, István Tiborcz, getting out of an extremely expensive Ferrari, emerged in the Hungarian media.
Tiborcz told HVG that those who are successful in business, or particularly wealthy, have a duty to support community purposes and set an example with their conduct and behaviour. He listed several charity actions, support programs and other initiatives he and his companies help people and communities with.

I quite like Orban’s comment about how politicians need to serve the people rather than themselves. How is that working out in Hungary?
The USA did some research – and acted, until it was “no longer politically expedient” (as per Mr. Rubio). Does not change the facts, though!

Theatre.
Propaganda – without any SUBSTANCE of Truth or FACT.
Victor Mihaly. Orban “seeking ” searching for support, in any way shape or form – in a state of DESPERATION, bought on by his SLATTERING of Hungary with his Fidesz Government.
MILLIONS growing in number of Hungarians – know are ACCEPRING – its TIME for the outing, the replacing of the Orban led Fidesz Government – to EFFECT, through the POWER of there VOTE – the DOWNFALL of the Orban led Fidesz Government.
Truth is Truth – and the TRUTH of the matter is, the Orban led Fidesz Government have DELIVERED us as a country to a postion of GRAVE un-certainty – for our survival, our FUTURE.
“Have You Said Thank You Once???” J.D. Vance
At last. Mr. Orbán professed it is not a good idea to leave the EU because it is not better outside, and a Huxit would not be bad for our trade.
As I have been saying all along. Happy our Lead Politician was able to admit. However, no “thank you” – just “you are awful and I want to change you”… EU – wire that money! the NER Knights, family and toadies need feeding! Our money, now!
