PM Orbán ‘has betrayed’ Hungarians in Slovakia, Former PM Gyurcsány’s DK says

The opposition Democratic Coalition (DK) has accused Viktor Orbán and his government of “betraying” Hungarians in Slovakia by buddying up with an “openly anti-Hungarian” administration that “will close or merge schools that provide teaching in Hungarian”.

DK calls on Péter Szijjártó, the foreign minister, to speak out and stand up for the interests of Hungarians living beyond the borders, senior DK politician Sandor Ronai told a press conference in front of the foreign ministry building, where the party also held a demonstration on Sunday.

The new Slovak government had promised not to curb Hungarian-language use in Slovakia, but then they back-peddled, he said.

“Fidesz is silent,” he said, adding that when it came to the issue, everyone from Orban to Szijjártó was “snoozing”.

“This is the real problem with the Orban government: when they want to exploit the Hungarian people, they bring them up as a point of reference; but otherwise the Orban government cannot be counted on either within or beyond the country’s borders,” he said.

Ronai said Orban had been “silent” when his “friend”, President Vladimir Putin, “invaded Ukraine”. And neither he nor Szijjártó had spoken up when the Russians attacked areas inhabited by Hungarians in Transcarpathia, he insisted.

  1. A globalist-socialist puppet who works for Ursula, Klaus, and Gyorgy claiming Orban is the traitor. You can’t write this stuff! LOL!

    Does anyone believe what this guy says? Does HE actually believe it himself?! He can’t possibly!

  2. The facts are that Fico is on Team Russia along with Orban. That is why Orban does not get on his high horse when it comes to the rights of ethnic Hungarians in Slovakia.. Steiner you are getting too repetitive with your “globalist socialist puppet” line. It’s just meaningless.

  3. Oh, another useless statement by a former failed P.M. who misses the adoration of the socialists.
