Unexpected: President Xi will announce colossal Chinese carmaking plant near Hungarian city
Change language:
Chinese President Xi Jinping will come to Hungary in May to meet with PM Viktor Orbán in Budapest. However, according to the information acquired by Szabad Európa (Free Europe), a Hungarian media outlet, Xi and Orbán will visit another Hungarian city. Instead of admiring its treasures, they will announce the building of a colossal Chinese carmaking plant.
Orbán and Xi to announce the newest Chinese investment in Hungary
The Chinese President will spend two days in Hungary: one in Budapest and another in Pécs, Southern Hungary. That is because he will meet with PM Orbán in the capital but travel to Pécs to announce the arrival of Great Wall Motors, a Chinese carmaking company, which plans to build a plant near the Southern Hungarian city.
Before this, Xi will meet with French President Macron and Serbian President Vučić. Gergely Gulyás, the Minister of the Prime Minister’s Office, said during Thursday’s Cabinet Briefing that Xi will arrive in Hungary on 8 May and stay until 10 May. 9 May marks the anniversary of the end of WWII in Europe.
We know little about the detailed program of the Chinese leader. However, Szabad Európa‘s unnamed sources said Xi and Orbán would travel to Pécs to announce the building of Great Wall Motors’ (GWM) first European plant near Bicsérd, a village close to Pécs.
Will the Chinese carmaking plant harm Pécs’s water supply?
First, mfor.hu shared information about GWM’s plans in Hungary in March. One month later, 24.hu wrote that a 600-hectare land was reclassified near Pécs to an industrial zone. The area has a key role in the city’s water supply. They also speculated that the Chinese would probably build a battery plant, but that suspicion was proven wrong.
PLEASE, PLEASE. Do not let them into your country. They will take over and destroy it.
Incredible stupidity by Fidesz allowing mighty Communists China in to Hungary.
The Hungarian freedom fighters of ’56 will be turning over in their graves.
Orbán will find that he will have to do what Xi wants without any buts, as the Communists do not believe in democracy.
And it is unlikely to benefit Hungary’s workers, as they will bring their own, including their Police, with them.
This absurd policy will destroy Fidesz, as the Chinese with more than a billion of them are far eastern Asians, and they will be unsuitable for the European, Hungarian Christian culture — the native population will suffer.
Comments above, you are forgetting, orban said that Hungary is a sovereign country! (Sarcastic mode off) by the way, do you remember the fidesz banners that said “dont let soros to get the last laugh”? Guess who is laughing at you now? Poor Hungary, still believe orban is a messiah!
Perilous decision – if ENTERTAINED by MILLIONS of Hungarians.
WHAT is Going on in Hungary ?
It is insane what the Orbán gang did to our country. Bringing it step by step under communist Chinese control!
Nick, you come to the right conclusions. Those idiots of Fidesz created a far eastern Asians (communist minded) Chinese minority in just a little more than a decade, and it will not stop here.
NOT the first plant in Europe, Do your research please, GWM already have a plant at Lovech in Bulgaria for about 10 years now.
