Orbán cabinet: Sanctions based on nebulous notions go against EU law
The requirement of legal certainty rules out the introduction of nebulous notions among European Union obligations, such as the rule of law, Justice Minister Judit Varga said in an interview published by German daily Die Welt on Friday.
Rule of law is not a clear-cut and concrete norm that could be applied in everyday life because it is impossible to clearly define when a violation is committed, which then has to be sanctioned, she said.
Clear norms and definitions are required for a system to be able to function, the minister added.
The conclusions approved by the EU summit on July 21 made it clear that a system of sanctions cannot be based on such difficult-to-define notions, she said.
Hungary has always maintained the position that Article 7 procedures are only justified if the state concerned neglects the rulings of the Court of Justice of the European Union, Varga said.
“Hungary, however, has always obeyed these rulings,” she added.
Varga also said that German Chancellor Angela Merkel had promised at the Brussels summit that she would make every effort to have the Article 7 procedure against Hungary concluded.
“If she gives her word, that’s enough for us,” she said.
“However, Merkel alone cannot get the procedure concluded,” she added.

Varga is as thick as two short planks and most people know that. There is a very widely accepted definition of what The Rule of Law is and what it means in governmental and societal practice.
It seems that any sovereign E.U. nation which does not fully abide by various INSANE IDEAS promulgated by the E.U. ‘central committee’ [comprised of various failed politicians who have been ‘appointed’ as E.U. Commissioners and non-elected bureaucrats who are useless at anything else] is now deemed to be disobeying the ‘rule of law’.
The ‘poofie-woofie’ / ‘licky-licky’ Pink Poodles and their ‘political handlers’ in Brussels are determined to ensure that ALL member nations of the E.U. confirm to neo-liberal / Marxist / Socialist / Communist / Leninist / Stalinist / pro-migration / pro-sexual deviancy guidelines which were never part of the E.U. ‘guidelines’ but now somehow are viewed by these deranged individuals to be THE LAW.
WHAT UTTER NONSENSE !
Sovereign nations decide THE LAW within their own countries, not a motley rabble of jibbering half-wits located within a hibrid ‘nation’ that has not had a properly-functioning government for almost two years !
IF THESE MENTAL RETARDS CANNOT ‘GET THE MESSAGE’, THEN THE ENTIRE E.U. ‘PROJECT’ WILL DISINTEGRATE WITHIN THE NEXT TWELVE MONTHS OR SO.
For the record, our friend ‘The Field Marshall’ (Paulus) has been described quite appropriately by Jethro Tull in his famous song – “THICK AS A BRICK”.
