Hungary’s government has decided to set up its own post-pandemic recovery fund within the state budget’s economy protection fund and pre-finance projects that would be paid for by the European recovery fund, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said on Friday.
In his regular interview to public broadcaster Kossuth Rádió, Orbán said the European Union was seeking a two-month delay in the talks on Hungary’s recovery plan. The most important aspect of the European recovery fund is that it is fast, the prime minister said, adding that delaying the payments called into question the essence of the fund.
Hungary is entitled to the recovery funds, Orbán said.
“They can delay them, but can’t withhold them,
so the government has decided to pre-finance the programmes that Brussels has already approved,” he said. “We’ll pay for those projects whether we get money from Brussels or not,” Orbán added.
the European Commission demanded that Hungary change its child protection laws.
According to Orbán, Brussels “wants us to allow LGBTQ activists in schools,
the education of Hungarian children is up to Hungarians.”
Concerning the Pegasus case Orbán said that the interior minister “has already said everything there is to be said”.

Oh my god, he is such a crybaby. Always blaming other people. It would be too funny if it wasn’t this sad for the Hungarians.
Brussels is flexing its muscles. They’re bullies. They’re being very difficult with brexit still. If everyone conforms to Brussels’ ideals then each country will lose its identity and we become nothing more than one massive EU state. What gives them the right to dictate when they don’t know the intricacies of each member state. They know little or nothing about each country and yet think they can force their rules on everyone. Von der Leyen was incompetent in her other roles, how she got this job is beyond me …..
He surely knows the way out. Solution is easy: make another fake survey/referendum, after all the 5XL autocrat is a master of manipulation, invent the result and bye bye EU. The rest of the Union will rejoice too.
Finding a working middle ground position – not just with the European Union – who Hungary – NEEDS – for its Future – if it wishes to retain an image “veiled” under Democracy – with other countries of Europe and the wider Global World – is just – IMPOSSIBLE – under the Philosophy and Political ideas – of this present Hungarian Government.
Hungary is under a MASSIVE global microscope.
Fighting Fire with Fire – there can be just one winner.
The loser, who will be Hungary – walks away and continues to establish build on there platform under there Political dogma – the Fidesz Party – “catechism” – the writer being Prime Minister – Victor Orban.
Fidesz – are ALL – about POWER.
The total focus of Fidesz – there Political Ideology – is the incessant on-going building of POWER – in there “inner sanctum” – of – “hands on” – active present day Members of Parliament.
This on-going increasing position and platform of incessant – taken by Fidesz – is “feed” by the oligarchy – who are the TRUE puppeteers – pulling, working the strings – marking the puppets – perform and dance to there tune.
Power – distribution of Wealth – disproportion of wealth equally and fairly shared spread out into a Democratic Society – into and across a Society – that contains citizens from “all stations in life” – keen and attentive eyes – on lessening Social Inequality – just “small scale” – WRONGNESS – that is witnessed continuously being displayed, practiced and exhibited by the Fidesz Party.
POWER – build Power – the Priorities evident of the Future – that the Fidesz Party – see will – Rule and Govern – by ALL means and – by there “catechism”.
It’s funny how he says we NEED this law and all the sheep buy it. How did we survive over a thousand years without it then? There were always gay adults, there were always kids (LGBTQ+ or not), and there were always schools. Scapegoating only works if people don’t think about it too much.
Giving the people something to focus on for his election campaign.
NOT ORBAN- since the beginning of time – sex was determined at birth. The AMA has decided sex of child to be removed from birth certificates. MOTHER status is also in doubt by the LGBS since men can give birth.
Children can choose their gender – last I heard their were 67 to choose from.
The US Vice President want to refer to by her
