PM Orbán re-elected, talked about the end of the European Union
Hungary will fight and defend itself with all its strength, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, the freshly re-elected head of ruling Fidesz, told the 30th party congress on Saturday.
The country cannot be sold out for money
Orbán said it was an “honour” to be given the mandate to lead the “most successful political community of the country, of Europe”. Orbán, who has been leading Fidesz since 2003 without interruption, said trust was always an honour, even after so many years.
His last mandate two years ago, he said, had been to lead Fidesz and KDNP to victory in the elections and to form a government that would continue building a strong and sovereign Hungary. “We are in the middle of that cycle . we don’t change horses midway, especially if they pull in the right direction and are still going strong. I am happy to report to congress: the government and I are both going strong, definitely strong enough to manage the remaining two-and-a-half years.”
Regarding the next congress in 2025, he said: “I continue to be in my best years, and plan to remain so in 2025.”
The country cannot be sold out for money with impunity, which is why it is crucial to establish the rules of protecting Hungary’s sovereignty, Orbán said.
“We can’t just move past the proven fact — which has also been admitted by the left — that foreign states, organisations and Brussels itself gave money to the left to defeat Fidesz and the Christian Democrats,” he said.
Foreigners “wanted to buy the future Hungarian government, and with it, the country, by the kilo”, the prime minister said.
“Can the country be sold out for money with impunity?” Orbán asked, adding: “This obviously can’t stay like this.”
“We have to fix this, and we expect our MPs to draw up the rules for the protection of Hungary’s sovereignty, all the way up to the constitution,” he said.
“A lot has happened since the elections, we won a resounding victory.” Orbán said “the entire left wing . worked together against us, and collected all the resources of the western [European] left, money, media, politicians, and governments from the US Democrats to the Ukrainian government”. “Similarly to what happened a month ago in Poland,” he added.
But Hungary started preparing earlier and “knew the strength of our opponents better since the . spider, the puppeteer is a Hungarian: George Soros and his network.”

Unprecedented pressure from the West
Orbán said the proven fact — also admitted by the left-wing — that foreign states and organisations, “even Brussels itself gave money to have us defeated” must not be forgotten. Funding the campaign of the opposition leader in last year’s campaign, Péter Márki-Zay, “was the worst investment in Uncle George’s life,” he said, referring to American financier George Soros.
The government has achieved the goals it has set for itself, allowing Hungary to gain new momentum and achieve significant growth even by European standards, ensure higher incomes and a higher minimum wage, he said.
The past two years have proven more difficult than ever due to the Russia-Ukraine war, the related sanctions, the energy crisis and galloping inflation, Orbán said.
Despite the “unprecedented pressure from the West”, Hungary has managed to stay out of the war, he said, adding that the country’s energy supply was secure despite sanctions on gas and oil, while caps on utility bills, jobs and family benefits had been protected.
“I report that we’ve achieved the goals we had set,” Orbán said.
He said the government had thwarted Brussels’s “attempts at financial blackmail”, and the economy was and would continue growing. “But we will, of course, collect those couple of euros they owe us,” he added.
“Even those who voted against us are doing well with us in government,” the prime minister said.
We will reject the crazy ideas of Brussels
Hungary will defend itself with all its might, he said. “We will reject the crazy ideas of Brussels bureaucrats, we will reject migrant invasion, gender propaganda, the mirages of war, Ukraine’s unprepared EU membership, the green ideologies bordering on communism and Jacobinism, we will protect ourselves from foreign attempts to undermine our sovereignty, even against the Soros empire attacking from Washington and Brussels simultaneously.”
“We must say no to the model of Europe pushed by Brussels,” Orbán said, adding it was unsustainable and had no future. “Brussels is ruining Europe and leading it to its death, and puts a new nail in its coffin every day.”
Orbán said the EU’s end was nigh if things went on the way they had been.
“Or job, our calling, is to stop that from happening.” Hungary’s interest is that the EU, “that was so hard to put together”, stays together, he said.
Hungary must change the EU rather than leave it, “but that is only possible with radical change in Brussels,” he said.
If things continue like this, the bloc would not explode, fall apart or collapse, but simply slide apart, Orbán said.
Today, neither the EU nor member states carry out their own decisions, the prime minister said, arguing that the European Commission and the European Parliament were “unabashedly circumventing their own rules”.
Brussels’s Europe model is old
What was “really worrying”, he said, was that “everyone has adjusted to this and got used to it”. Brussels’s Europe model is old, while the world has renewed itself and gained fresh momentum, he said.
Orbán said Hungarians had developed a “European counter-model” of their own based on the principles of zero migration, a work-based economy, full employment, strong families, low taxes and a “sensible green transition”.
While self-defence and “being in opposition” had often prompted Hungary to say “no”, “we don’t want to get stuck in the role of a constantly whining Mr. No or Herr Nein”, he said.
Hungary’s strength is nurtured by “our plan, our European counter-model”, he said.
The Hungarian model is visible and well-known due to the frequent attacks levelled at it, he said. “It is also increasingly envied, although the official communication must be different . the French, the Germans and the Italians would give half their lives to have a migrant-free country again.”
Hungary’s “zero-migration policy” guaranteed that “only those we allow to enter may be here. Hungary is the most secure country in Europe right now, which is especially clear in light of the pro-terror conflicts on the streets in western Europe,” he said.
Hungarian model: work, families, united nation, falling debt
The “Hungarian model” is based on a work-based economy, strong families, a united nation, falling debt, “investments arriving in droves”, trade and cooperation with all countries in the world, a “sensible” green transition, and bringing cutting-edge technology to Hungary, he said.
Hungary today receives more recognition from the politically more critical international green organisations than from the Hungarian green parties, he said.
Orbán said the future of the Hungarian economy was being decided right now because the locations of Europe’s green industry hubs were also being decided now. This, he added, required major private investment.
Hungary’s green policy is not based on ideology or partisanship, the prime minister said, adding that the government said “yes to green energy but no to green ideology”.
He said he knew Hungary to be a country that “doesn’t believe in colourful stories. “We couldn’t stomach the brown stories, either, which were dominated by race and blood, or the red stories dominated by the proletariat and class conflict,” he said. “We also couldn’t stomach the rainbow-coloured stories, and now we’re suspicious of the poison green stories in which nature gets revenge and takes back power. We, Hungarians simply want a clean, healthy and natural world according to the order of creation.”
Orbán said Hungary had to produce and store green energy, adding that the latter capability would be the key to success.
Hungarians, he said, had a chance to become the technological leaders of a new era in the global economy.
“We haven’t had an opportunity like this in 150 years,” the prime minister said. “All the conditions for success are in place; all we need are brave and well-prepared leaders at the national and local levels.”
We will be strong, rich and green
“We’re making Hungary the meeting point for the most advanced Eastern and Western technology,” he said. This, he added, was the reason why the country was today considered a “champion of connectivity, green energy and new industrial technologies”.
This strategy is what will propel the Hungarian economy upward in the next 15-20 years, ensure that everyone has jobs and attract partner vocational schools and universities, Orbán said.
“We will be strong, rich and green,” he added.
“Our government is a ninja government, because we plan for the enemy, rather than us, to be the one on the ground after the mission, allowing us to return to base safe and sound,” the prime minister said.
The government has to be brave and capable of taking action, Orbán said. It must not back away in the face of unexpected moves, and must know that only disciplined and precise operations can be successful against an overpowering opponent, he added.
Orbán said the first such operation would be the new National Consultation public survey.
The second, he added, would be next year’s European Parliament Election. “We must achieve a breakthrough in Brussels and repel the Gyurcsanyists,” he said.
The prime minister highlighted the local elections as the third key operation.
“We have to win both the European and local council elections,” Orbán said.
“The Good Lord above all of us, Hungary before all else; go Hungary, go Hungarians!” Orbán said, concluding his speech.
If Orban had any intergrity, given what he says publicly, he’d begin withdrawal from both the EU and NATO rather than whine about wanting handouts and hoping for protection against his wildly dysfunctional policies.
I can’t beleive there are no comments here – this says it all.
Bravo Cliff Arroyo. Tm I would say that people are getting tired of the non-stop crap that comes out of Orban’s mouth and just tune out. It’s not even worth responding to anymore. I am not big supporter of Soros. He’s just a smart man who believes in humanitarian causes. If Soros had led Hungary rather than Orban Hungarians would be immensely better off today. At least Hungary would have been led by someone who isn’t an idiot when it comes to economics and fiscal management. Let that comment sink into the exploding heads of Fidesz loving kooks.
“We will be strong, rich and green.”
One can only hope that someday this will happen. So far Fidesz politics has failed and Hungarians are more pessimistic and poorer each year with Fidesz ruling. And the environment is being destroyed by increasing number of factories that employ more and more imported cheap migrant labor that push down the Hungarian salaries.
Oh well at least Fidesz leaders and oligarchs are getting stronger and richer and can afford to do luxury travels to green destinations. That´s probably what Orban meant with the word “We”, certainly not the Hungarian average peopple.
There is a difference between NATO and EU. NATO’s function is to protect members against Russia. NATO’s involvement in Ukraine was a bad decision. The UK is a member of NATO but not the EU.
Hungary is a sovereign country. The people have every right to vote for FIDESZ. FIDESZ is not a Marxist, socialist party that wants to cede sovereignty to globalist’ EU. As long as FIDESZ and Prime Minister Orban stick to pro national politics, they will be reelected.
Only people of Hungary have the right to decide who lives in their country and what kind of government should be in charge.
“FIDESZ is not a Marxist, socialist party that wants to cede sovereignty to globalist’ EU”
No, it’s an oligarchic clique that steals from the Hungarian public while whining and begging the EU for money…. shameful.
Orban, continues to demonstrate, why, our relationship with the European Union is in tatters, that is at a point of a NO return.
Orban – on-going aggression could be said treats against the European Union, its “modus operandi” its present functionality and its future, the more Orban fires “Salvos” at the European Union, our existence as a Member of the European Union – BLACKENS.
Hungary, as long as Prime Minister – Victor Orban remains as Prime Minister of Hungary, our position in or out possible more likely out of membership, we Hungary, through the name Victor Orban – will get No Favours.
Relationships with country’s we have enjoyed for centuries some longer absolutely DESTROYED by Orban.
NATO, the United States of America – relationships with country’s that enjoy the Freedom & Liberty under Democratic Rule, through the Orban wrongful ways, they have just Orban/Fidesz – HUMILIATED the name Hungary.
Economic & Financial Management, the Prime Minister – Victor Orban and his Finance Minister – Mihaly Varga, strong on-going signs are there for ALL to see they factually have incinerated the economy, decisions, policies made that have been a humongous Disaster.
Inflation, Interest Rates – continual un-certainty of the forint, – the “weight of this list, this area of our Financial Management, continues to be flawed, by policy decisions of Orban & Varga, that will worsen.
The on-going destruction, the “sell off” of Hungary, the Orban “drive” to remove core Democracy its practice of in Hungary, moving rapidly to-wards a Dictatorial regime Government, the movement continues of the “in bed” with Russia and China which is never off Orbans/Varga – there plans – the entire Orban/Fidesz “grand plan” – for the future of Hungary.
Remember, the European Union no longer, in stated form, that Hungary is a Democracy but a Dictatorship happening.
The fabrication of truth, increased propaganda mounting exploding out of the mouth of Orban inclusive of Varga – “feeding” out to all of Hungary, Europe and the Global World, that we Hungary, our Economy has turned out of being in a Recession, to give clear indication we are “on the move” again – a complete diversion from the TRUTH.
Hungary, we are rapidly approaching a Debt servicing crisis, a Government, running out of money, a position that could occur of an insolvent Government, that could result in massive “in-side” Hungary cataclysmic citizens impact, on the already decline occurring in the quality of live of Hungarians.
Buying Airports instead of investing into the NEEDS of the lives of Hungarians – Education, what a mess it remains in, through the in-ability of the Orban Government to dialogue with a truthful tongue, Hospitals – all Social “needs” of Services of Hungarians – public transportation, the PRIORITIZATION allocation of the Orban Government it’s spending allocation of funds/spending of our taxes – continues to destroy us, “crippling” us, the dismissal to make investments into areas of society, that have NEEDS for the conduct of there daily lives.
What about the “New Age” state of the art Hospital (3) three plus years past in Budapest – PROMISED ?
We now are factually knowing besides shortages of trained staff in our hospitals – they are running out of funds – they being public hospitals that are funded in great part of there society need – by the Orban Government.
Broadsheet – what else is on the verge of collapse or a crisis waiting to occur in Hungary ?
Hungary – our respect has been gargantuan in DAMAGE bought upon us by Victor Orban and besides what he has done being PERMITTED on-going to undertake wrongfully in Hungary, our “brand name” the proudness of our past, the name Orban will go down in History, that caused “bruising” to the proud global name – the respected name of Hungary.
President former of the United States of America – Clinton, said of Hungary, in recent times, that the problem with Hungarians they find democracy to difficult to understand and practice.
Gee we grow seeing on-going signs of this back to pre 1989 Government “style” and practices.
History never Lies.
“The farther backwards you can look,
The father forward you can see.”
Respectfully to Hungarians, you don’t need a great amount of intelligence nor education standard, to look at the past 1989 and prior to know of the ways living under a communistic dictatorship operates, the principal words of freedom & liberty ain’t in its dictionary.
Orban “styles” rapidly this political path for the future of Hungary ?
Prime Minister of Hungary, under his doing, it appears, the country of Hungary, becoming bit like an island, with no support nothing from democratic governed countries support, but Victor Orban’s “favours” to Russia and China, the dictatorship communist governed countries looks like Orban has a “growing ” love affair, that will has already continue, in Orbans opinion, produce many an off-spring.
Amazement of the Prime Minister of Hungary – Orban, the BLATANT turn around his back on Democracy practiced in Hungary.
History never Lies.
Orban, took to the microphone, its on U-Tube to this day view and hear – in August 1989 Hero’s Square – spoke to thousands of Hungarians in front of him, broadcast throughout Hungary and Europe and the global world, his mouth, his words, singing the praises of Hungary, the wall had fell, out with the old under rule of communism, embracing the future of Hungary was as a democracy.
What happened ?
We move on to 1991, the first visit to Hungary, he came twice in his “Glorious” Pontificate of now Saint Pope John Paul 11, his pontifical mass to Hungary, held in Hero’s Square, in the front “pews” sat Victor Orban, hearing the “wisdom” words in the Pontiffs sermon that said :
“Be mindful of the blessings that freedom, which you have definitively secured it means for your (Hungary) future.
Cherish it, and make good use of your liberty.”
What happened ?
Orban – democracy his words 1989 from his mouth the way of the future for Hungary, then, front row, 1991, listening to the “wisdom words of now Saint Pope John Paul 11 – not mentioning Democracy, but the core of Democracy – Freedom & Liberty – why – and over near on 20 years in his (2) two times as Prime Minister of Hungary it has continued to escalate coming out being exposed and witness, that Orban – was – is a FAKE to any practice of the core “creeds” of Democracy.
History never Lies.
Hungarians, take a trip, to Hero’s Square – read “itched” in stone for ALL Hungarians to read, the World to read, in a “tablet” of stone the WISDOM words of Saint Pope John Paul 11 given Hungary.
REMEMBER – the current Prime Minister of Hungary – that place of Respect, a Treasured National Memorial to the History – the “pains and sufferings” the glorious celebrations of victories of Hungary, the message Hero’s Square is to all Hungarians – the History of Hungary, and Victor Orban, what came out of his mouth, in Hero’s Square and he sat in a “privileged” seat, to hear Saint Pope John Paul 11 – “wisdom” words to Hungary – the future of Hungary, the place he has delivered us as a country this day, a future of grave darkening un-certainty – Sorrowful.
Best thing about DNH it allows comments-
Interesting how so many are clueless to what a incredible place this. I was born and lived most of my life in the US and time in the UK- and been to China many times. So I have something to compare it to.
I really don’t know where to start, here. So, I will not. For a change!
Millions of Hungarians are likened to Lemmings – just follow, follow on, led to the cliff ledge, follow on and jump.
I would like this comment to be taken not as a personal attack on Hungarians, but the point of my commentary I make respectively, is that remaining deeply, in the DNA of Hungarians, that you could say using 1914 on, in the DNA of Hungarians – is that the country has a history, by being Lemming like, of backing or following the wrong leader(s) or country’s they “get into bed” with.
Churchill did say:
“There are many bad and useless Political party’s but DEMOCRACY remains the best of a bad lot.”
Orban – he is followed like the Pied Piper that wrongfully, by this attitude in vastness of Hungarians in there millions, they are Lemmings.
Orban just continues his vermint un-relenting attack on the European Union.
My growing wager – bet, on who the big time winner will be, is not Hungary, nor Victor Orban.
Hungarians don’t they understand what’s going on with Orban, the perilous path he has taken Hungary on ?
Hungary as a country, it’s ability to stand alone even with the loan facilities of Russia and China, the people present coming generations of Hungarians, what Orban is doing is “selling out” of Hungary, what it means to be Hungarian, proud of our history that Orban is destroying.
Never will we, even with Russia and China bank-rolling us, never will we manage nor grow find stabilization and growth expansion of our Economy, grow our declining population, going from an “aged ” society to a substantially lower “mean” age of our population, drastically improving the quality of life of Hungarians, the NEEDS of Hungarians, from “all stations in life” that presently all these examples are being eradicated by Victor Orban and his Government.
What a MESS a growing catastrophy.
Here is a headline today from this newspaper “Budapest has highest share of adults in brain business jobs in Europe”. It seems that Hungary has brainpower to spare. Do the naysayers not realize that Prime Minister Orban’s and Sijjarto’s policies must be the correct way to go. These two politicians are the beneficiaries of the great Hungarian gene pool. Studying the leaders of the EU nations and the EU parliament, it is obvious that they instituted policies that are sure to fail.
Accepting uneducated hordes from Muslim countries was a big mistake; the EU borders are still open to the detriment of the people.
EU leaders should have worked harder to stop the Ukrainian/Russian melee before it started. Instead, the EU parliament and US promised weapons; the result is part of Ukraine is destroyed, those Ukrainians that could leave fled the country, the number of casualties and deaths are tragic.
Grooming children instead of making them proficient in math and science is a big mistake. Children’s brains do not fully develop until their mid-twenties. Grooming destroys the normal development of children.
Sanctions imposed on Russia at the bidding of the US ruined European economy. The dependable energy supply from Russia is no longer available because Ukraine blew up the pipe line. Russia now sends its oil/gas to China and India. US cannot be relied on energy supply; the Biden administration ruined the ability of the great American oil/gas companies to produce sufficient barrels of oil/ gas because of too many regulations, The US is now forced to buy oil/gas from communists Venezuela.
Belgium had a thriving diamond cutting industry. The diamond was supplied by Russia. The EU wants to put sanctions on Russian diamonds, killing the Belgian industry.
Green energy nazis inhabit the EU. These people forced governments to enact legislation that is detrimental to the economy, danger to the food supply while increasing the density of population in the countries. The green climate idiots ruing great pieces of art, block traffic and add to the stress of daily living. The smart thing would have been to invest in research and development and trust that the scientists will solve the problem. Politicians have no business interfering in areas beyond their comprehension, a good example is a silly girl, Greta.
Hungary does not have these problems. Protection and good education of children are of paramount importance. Green nazis are not allowed to interfere in the lives of everyday citizens. No uneducated, illegal, some criminal alien was allowed into the country. This saves billions to taxpayers. New York City Mayor Adams is cutting down school funding, library support and police protection in order to support illegal migrants.
If people would broaden their outlook, study the world around them, they will realize that Hungary is one of the safest and best places to live.
Hungary is neglecting the children by not providing good education. Teachers have been trying to get their voice heard even by organizing large demonstrations but the government does not care. Instead they make new laws and regulations that further silence the teachers and forcing qualified teachers to quit their jobs and seek new careers.
Hungary is great for those who can afford a nice life here, especially for expats who have gathered wealth while working abroad. For the average working people the salaries in Hungary are very low even if you work in brain business, and cost of living is increasing day by day. Budapest is full of outsourced service centers where most brain business people work for 1000 – 1500 € a month salary. They can only dream about “studying the world around them”. No money to travel and see places. That is why so many youth have clear plans to find work abroad to be able to earn decent money and see the world – just like young peopple in the west can do without leaving their home country.
Business is booming for a friend of mine who teaches English to private students. All the young students have the same goal – to one day move out of Hungary for better work opportunities abroad. Due to poor education in Hungarian schools, their starting skills are shockingly poor – 15 year old kids unable to form a single decent sentence in English even though they have “studied” English in primary school for a few years and somehow passed all school tests.
Anyone claiming that Hungary provides good education to children does not have a clue about the quality of education provided to ordinary school students in Hungary. Exceptions exist of course, but mostly the basic education quality is low as teachers are underpaid and therefore unmotivated.
Ukraine is bravely defending its independence and deserves all support to stop Russian terror war. Nobody should do business with agressive terrorist countries.
Teachers’ unions ruined the education system in the US. Teachers’ unions usually demand more money for teachers, less hours of work. Neither of the two previously mentioned demands add to value to education. Teachers are upset that no grooming is allowed in the schools. Grooming children stops normal development of children. It is not money that makes the difference, the US spends more money per child than any other country, yet the results are disastrous. No school district in the US reported that at least 50% of the students are proficient in reading and writing. To combat bad statistics, the state of Oregon is lowering standard.
Educators should have their input; however, education should never be controlled by teachers. Powerful teachers’ unions are always detrimental to previous standard.
Yeah, a wealthy expat troll who has no clue about real life of ordinary citizens in Hungary.
US teachers are left wing supporters. They believe that the government and not the parents should have the right to raise the child. That is unacceptable. Children are individuals and each child’s interest should be served; no teacher can achieve this. No society wants children to become identical robots. It is allowing and encouraging individual development that allowed for the creation of Rubics cube. Edward Teller’s education was not hindered by filling his head by socialist ideas.
Hungary’s success will be guaranteed by allowing the development of individual talent of every Hungarian child.
