State secretary Zsigmond: European left afraid of right-wingers winning
“We believe in a European cooperation based on respect and sovereignty,” Barna Pál Zsigmond, state secretary at the European affairs ministry, said on Wednesday.
He noted European Council President Charles Michel’s bid to run in the European Parliament elections, and said “Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, the most experienced member of this circle, could even serve temporarily as the head of the body”.
Zsigmond said that the European left was “afraid” that “in many cases the right-wingers are expected to win” in upcoming elections “due to Brussels’ mismanagement of recent crises”. “People could now send a clear message to Brussels: they don’t want any more of the mistakes of leaders with excessive powers and bureaucrats have made in recent years,” he said.
Concerning Hungary’s upcoming EU presidency in the second half of the year, the state secretary said he believed it would be “another excellent presidency” adding that “we are prepared and we will assess all proposals on the basis whether they address real problems, and whether they take into consideration the interests of Hungarians and other citizens of the EU, as well as of Hungary and all other EU member”. The Hungarian government will promote “a position reflected in the National Consultation public survey”.
Hungary has an interest in a united Europe, in a “responsible cooperation, which has not characterised the recent period”, said Zsigmond. He said that “there could be disputes” because the Hungarian government “does not believe in dictates and lecturing others … and rejects the current practice of bypassing members’ interests”.
“Europe was built on a culture of dialogue; we believe in a cooperation based on respect and compromise,” the state secretary said on Facebook.

Well Europe better get its’ act together on defence because the Russian bear is breathing down your necks and this is what another right-winger who may become president again has said:
“You need to understand that if Europe is under attack, we will never come to help you and to support you,” Thierry Breton quoted Trump as saying during a meeting he also attended at the World Economic Forum in Davos in January 2020.
“By the way, NATO is dead, and we will leave, we will quit NATO,” Trump also said, according to the European Union official who spoke at a panel discussion on Tuesday, hosted by the Renew Europe party group at the European Parliament.
“And by the way, you owe me $400 billion, because you didn’t pay, you Germans, what you had to pay for defense.”
The Poles are saying that Eastern Europe has three years to prepare for a Russian attack because Putin is committing to a war based economy. Putin is not going away.
98% of Europeans are the “left”, 2% are in bed with Hungary. 98% do not care at all about Hungary, no matter how loud they shout. 98% of Europe is moving forward and has a positive agenda with good intentions. 2% of Europe (if that) spend all of their time screaming like spoiled children that can not get their way, with billlboards all over our beautiful landscape crying that they are misunderstood, not listened to, not enough attention payed to them. Sad.
Victor’s Reality, Hungary was the only country that was right about mass illegal immigration. The problems the illegal migrants and costs are enormous.
Hungary is right about Ukraine too.
Hungary’s track record is better than any EU countries’. It is time for people to check their facts.
