Putin apologised to Hungary while Orbán talked about 50 pc chance of a Huxit
PM Viktor Orbán touched some important topics at the Kötcse symposium last Sunday. His keynote speech aimed at setting the direction of his political movement; and since it is not recorded, information about what the prime minister was actually talking about emerged slowly. Now, one of his supporters said that Orbán believes there is a 50% chance that the EU will collapse. Meanwhile, President Putin made a grand gesture towards Hungary and the Czech Republic.
According to ATV, politologist Tamás Fricz dessected Orbán’s speech on Hír TV, a government-close television channel. He said Orbán reckons the EU has a fifty-fifty chance of surviving or collapsing. Orbán added that Hungary must be prepared for both two scenarios. The prime minister held his talks behind closed doors, in which he also mentioned his plan of remaining in power until 2034.
Putin: it was a mistake to send tanks to Hungary
Meanwhile, Russian President Putin said “that the Soviet Union’s decision to send tanks into Hungary and Czechoslovakia to crush mass protests during the Cold War was a mistake”, Reuters wrote. “It is not right to do anything in foreign policy that harms the interests of other peoples”, he added. But he did not go on about his decision to send troops to Ukraine.

That comes after the scandal concerning the new history textbooks issued in Russia, which label the Hungarian anti-Communist freedom fight of 1956 as a fascist rebellion. Furthermore, the educational materials also mention that Putin deemed it a mistake that the Soviet Union withdrew its troops from Central Europe, including Hungary. We wrote about that HERE.
Ukraine’s gesture
Ukraine’s minister responsible for the country’s EU accession said Kyiv was ready to provide minority and education rights to the ethnic Romanians and Hungarians. Therefore, multilateral talks started moving towards a possible compromise, which would satisfy all three parties, 444.hu wrote. That comes after President Katalin Novák and Zelensky’s meeting in Ukraine, during which the Ukrainian President promised to solve the minority issues.
Ukraine wants to join the EU, but securing the necessary language use or education rights for the national minorities is a prerequisite. Olha Stefanisina cleared that Ukraine would not grant the same minority rights to the Russians but the country is open to make amends for Romanians and Hungarians. PM Orbán blocks EU-Ukraine accession summits because of the previously mentioned anti-Hungarian measures. We wrote about the latest one HERE. Critics believe Orbán would not support Ukraine’s EU accession even if the minority and education problems were solved as they are just excuses to veto Ukraine’s attempts to be part of the union.
“There is a 50% chance that the EU will collapse.” “Russian victory is inevitable in Ukraine.” “The US is a main adversary.” Are these statements by Vladimir Putin? No. They are coming from Victor Orban who is referred to by Putin as “Mini-Me.”
Anyone with a brain knows that Putin is lying.
Putin: “It was a mistake to send tanks to Hungary in 1956 but not a mistake to send tanks and mobile crematoriums into Ukraine in 2022.”
Larry from his CIA cubicle at the US Embassy in Budapest. Give it a rest. Go home to the cesspool of America. We do not want you or your kind in charge of the planet. YOUR WELCOME..FROM the rest of the entire planet.
Strangly enough, and you don’t need to be a Rhodes Scholar to get a comfortable understanding of the Orban/Putin “games” they continue to play, that THEY know, deep down in there CONSCIENCE, they are fighting a LOOSING Battle again against the POWER of Global Democracy.
Orban – single him out, the country that he holds the position as Prime Minister is literally “falling over a cliff” – in a cataclysmic Economic & Financial state of DEVASTATION.
People of Hungary – the longer this FRIENDSHIP with Russia & China is permitted to expand grow in Hungary, the closer does Hungary SINK into an abyss, that could see its DEMISE.
Orban – 1989 – from his mouth, delivered from Hero’s Square to ALL of Hungary, and Europe the Global World, mouthing off, that Hungary, our way forward, after decades under rule by the Communist Government of Russia, that Hungary – we MUST for our FUTURE embrace being a country Governed and Ruled under DEMOCRACY.
History never Lies and these words, this 1989 speech delivered by Victor Orban is another example of his political transformation, driving Hungary – back into the Governance styled as a dictatorship, that is massively aligned to Russia & China.
Isn’t there almost always a 50% chance of ANYTHING? As far as the E.U., it won’t last long. It’s an artificial, unnatural creation, confected in an era of good times, when Europe and Europeans were economically strong, secure of their identity, confident in the cultural and civilization values, optimistic about the future, and at the threshold of an epoch of freedom and transparency. ALL these factors are not just impaired but totally absent today. The Frankenstein E.U. is sclerotic, corrupt, unaccountable, authoritarian, and anti-democratic. Its actions are orchestrated by even more opaque globalist-socialist international megalomaniacs. It seeks to erase its own history and suborn the Western civilization and its value. It wants to create an army but ask yourselves why. It is obviously not to defend its external borders, that much is clear. The E.U. actively ENCOURAGES an invasion of illegal aliens. No, the army would be there to send tanks to recalcitrant states, a la 1956. The E.U. will collapse, that’s for sure; the question is whether it’ll happen the way Czechoslovakia dissolved or if it’ll explode like Yugoslavia…
Derrick Van der Lisle:
Could you explain why 360,000 Chinese students study in the “cesspool” US each year ? How is it possible that each years 7 of the top 10 ranked University is in the US ? How can “cesspool” athletes win 29 medals in Budapest incl. 12 gold and the next country only 12 medals ? These athletes are not “grown” in live-in sport complex for 10-12 years like Chinese athletes . How is it that 95% of the music played on Hungarian radio stations are US music ? Rest of the world is the same ratio. Why not Russian or Chinese music ? How many American fast food restaurants are in Hungary ? Subway, McDonald, Burger King, PIzza Hut, KFC, etc.
In the US democrats are controlling a senile , corrupt fraudulently elected president, but that is over soon.
ICYMI: China is going through a real estate crisis that will have serious effect on their economy. Russia will be declared by the UN a war criminal and charged accordingly. Trillions $ have to be paid to Ukraine and rebuild the country. (Germany a few weeks ago still made payment to Israel 80 years after the war )
Russia is a large gas station and China is a large factory. Once the orders stop, their economy will collapse. They have nothing else.
Hungary, as usual, bet on the wrong horse. Good luck with that.
Dear Derrick. The CIA helps to protect us from the Russian beasts. I am just an aware Canadian who hold a masters degree in political science and is aghast at the direction Hungary is taking. America is the greatest country in the world. Millions of people want to immigrate to what you hilariously call a “cesspool.” Who would want to live in Russia which is a dysfunctional hole? America has been a magnet for immigrants for a 100 years. People voted with their feet for generations on how they like America. Get real.
To Anonymous: What 95% of music on the radio here is American? Earlier I was in the car and heard plenty of Hungarian and other European music, the music I heard in English (which I remember) was Adele, Ed Sheeran and Take That, all English. Not American English, they are from England. You know that European country who invented the language and colonised your country and that’s why you speak their language. Sorry after that part of your comment I lost interest and didn’t understand the rest of the drivel you wrote.
Dear Larry, Hungary does NOT need protection from Russia. When you live peacefully with your neighbors you have nothing to worry about. Unlike the USA and UK who are deliberately trying to foment WW3 Hungary is trying to stop big mistake number 3. The American and UK bullies running NATO should go home Europeans who try to make peace instead of war will survive, warmongers will cease to exist. The world is sick of needless wars that enrich the American and Britsih military industrial complex.
friends, will be friends ….oh dear Victor I love you, I am so sorry
Ukraine was living peacefully with its neighbour Russia untill Russia alone decided to start a brutal war to invade Ukraine land. If Russia would become a neigbour to Hungary, there would certainly be something to worry about. Luckily for Hungary, NATO members protect it – and Hungary certainly needs that protection. It would be big mistake to let Russia win the war in Ukraine, just like it would have been a big mistake to let fascist Germany win WW1 & WW2.
World is sick of Russian war mongering that benefits only the Russian war industry oligarchs.
At last someone is talking about the possible or probable collapse of the EU!
I am someone who supported Brexit for over 30 years and happy with being outside the EU.
I am not saying UK is in a good position but UK problems are caused now by UK govt policies not Brussels.
One thing that many British people liked about the EU in the early days was the VETO. If a country really did not want a Brussels decision the govt could Veto it.
The Veto was the ultinate safety valve. It keep national sovereignity alive and kept a check on the corrupt Brussels machine.
If the Veto was restored then EU would not collapse. And Brexit would not have hapoened!
Just saying!
@Bruce – quick question on Brexit and the outside-of-the-EU thing: other than that UK problems are caused now by UK govt policies, could you perhaps list the three biggest benefits of Brexit?
Brexit- Three biggest benefits: Freedom, Autonomy, Home Rule. (or Freedom, Freedom, Freedom )
No more diktats from the Troika in Brussels, Germany and France.
How many millions have died over the years in pursuit of these noble ideals- and all it took was a democratic vote and we make our own laws again!
Ostansus, No they weren’t, you mediot.
Like most people in these commemts (sadly) you have no clue what’s happening in the war, just like most people here (#notall) have no clue what the EU is. Why it was founded from the beginning etc.
