Orbán cabinet considering extending ban on Ukraine farm products if Brussels fails to act
Hungary is considering extending a newly introduced ban on imports of Ukrainian farm products if Brussels does not implement adequate protections for Hungarian farmers, a government official said on Monday.
Agriculture Minister István Nagy announced on Saturday that Hungary was banning imports of Ukrainian grain, oilseed and other farm products until June 30 to allow time for a “rethink” of European Union measures that have resulted in a glut on local markets.
Responding to an opposition lawmaker in parliament, agriculture ministry state secretary Sándor Farkas said several Ukrainian farm products were being pulled from the market after food safety authority Nébih and other authorities discovered that they contained harmful substances.
The authorities will find and inspect all Ukrainian import products that are suspected to be contaminated, he said.
Hungarian farmers must be protected at all cost, not just in the case of imported grain, but also oil seeds and honey, Farkas added.

The volatility of the Hungarian Government and the United States of America, placed in this precarious position, by the dictatorial manner in which Victor Orban – is factually viewed, that “feeds” – is projected exhibited. into European and Global politics, we may witness a “counter attack” on Hungary, by the United States of America.
The possibility of this occurring, through the long term commitment and investment, in the name of DEMOCRACY, that the United States of America have ‘pledged” for the Ukraine, would be in additional Sanctions.
Orban may have opened another “Pandora’s Box” – that could see him Orban – Hungary – “ripped apart” by the European Union, and “other” country’s, that are governed under DEMOCRACY.
Questions that rightfully may be asked to Orban, in relation to his – his Governments policies relating to farming and agriculture in Hungary.
Do you believe Mr. Prime Minister – Orban, that you and your Government, provide ALL the needs, the protection, the investment, maintaining a close and working relationship with these sectors of your country being farming & agriculture?
Is it an amicable working partnership arrangement?
‘Pandora’s Box” – the opening of a can of worms – the already SOILED name of Victor Orban in the European Union, Great Britain & Ireland, the United States of America, by country’s Globally governed under DEMOCRACY – this demand AGAIN placed on Brussels, could be ADDING to the demise of Hungary as a Member of the European Union, and the cessation of Victor Orbans life in Politics.
Hear, hear! What on earth is going on that European citizens are getting screwed left and right, in favor of everybody else. Whether it’s illegal migration, cheap imports, energy sources and pricing: ordinary Europeans get stiffed each and every time. And they get smeared as xenophobes and worse if they dare to object, let alone elect a government to try to put a stop to it. ENOUGH!!!!!
