US Ambassador urgently travels back to Washington: will he return with new sanctions?
A Hungarian media outlet believes US Ambassador Pressman will return with a bunch of new anti-Hungary sanctions from Washington because that is what happened after his latest Washington visit.
On 2-3 November, US Ambassador to Hungary David Pressman travelled to Washington, D.C. to consult with senior US government officials about the US-Hungary bilateral relationship. The Ambassador’s engagements included meetings with senior Executive Branch officials, including at the White House and Department of State, in addition to senior Congressional leaders, the official website of the US Embassy in Budapest wrote.
After Pressman’s previous visit to Washington, the USA announced a sanctions package against Hungary, index.hu wrote. Weeks ago, we wrote that the Biden administration was preparing to introduce restrictions against Hungarian private individuals because they conflicted with the Hungarian government.
The last time Pressman was in Washington was in March. After his return, he announced US sanctions against the Budapest-based Russian International Investment Bank and its Hungarian vice president, Imre Laszlóczki. We wrote about that HERE. Afterwards, the US government introduced restrictions concerning the visas of Hungarian individuals born abroad.
In 1956 US ignored Hungary. From 1956 to 1995 the US pretended that the country did not exist. From 1996-2009 the US decided the country was not important. 2010 Prime Minister Orban was elected, Hungary became America’s greatest enemy, bigger enemy than Russia, Iran, North Korea and China put together. What does Hungary has that scares America so much, particularly the Biden Administration. Hungary should figure out what it now has, bottle it and sell it.
You can not bottle homophobia, islamphobia, ignorance, misogynist attitudes, eliteism or any of the other horrible traits of our current government. But if they could, I am sure maria would be their best sales person.
Can’t he stay in Washington DC!!
Zsa Zsa, it may be homophobia, islamophobia that saved the children of Hungary and the country. No Hungarian child was mutilated instead of receiving mental help. Western EU and USA are filled with terrorist, you saw them protesting, supporting hamas, yelling intifada and threatening the productive Jewish population. Prime Minister Orban, yours and Fidesz’ decisions saved women from rape, the country from no go zones, etc.. How can Zsa Zsa say it is Islamophobic not insisting that women cover their head, women cannot leave the house alone, and girls cannot go to school like in Afghanistan. Logic and critical thinking saved Hungary’s population.
Hugo, you are perfectly right, Pressman should never be allowed to enter Hungary and dirty the pristine soil of the country.
Oh Maria, there you go again, quoting Fox and the other “news” outlets that consume your day. I should remind you that in many areas of the world Catholic woman cover their heads when entering the church. I should also remind you that Hungary is not and will never be a “safe haven” for religions other than Christianity. Supporting Palestinians is not supporting Hamas. As for your other claims of terrorists in the streets and mutilations, check your meds, these are the biggest lies you have told yet! And tell me what policy exactly did Fidesz pass that protected woman from rape?
Der Zsa Zsa ‘Wonder Woman’ Star Gal Gadot Plans Hollywood Screening of Hamas Atrocities Against Jews. When the video is released, you will be able to see what you, in your naivete, refuse to acknowledge. Many reporters, from many nations, watched videos taken by terrorist hamas and it is their reporting that confirmed the atrocities. Yes, hamas beheaded babies, placed them and burn the babes in hot ovens, raped women and burned families alive. All pro palestinian supporters are tantamount to terrorists. It finally happened, in the US, yesterday a pro palestinian terrorist murdered a 69-year-old Jewish man for holding and Israeli flag. The “suspect was not arrested so he can flee the country”. By the way the murder was broadcasted of CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS and NBC as well as Fox.
Some women wear something on their head when entering a Catholic Church. These women do it because that is what they did all their life and refuse to change; these women never heard of Vatican II. Even entering St. Peter’s in the Vatican, women do not cover their heads.
To the best of my knowledge, reading news on Euronews, German DW, Canadian news sources, US news source, there was never any mention of particular religious persecution in Hungary under the FIDESZ government. Jewish persecution increased a minimum of 200%+ in Germany, France, UK and Belgium. So, it may be time for you to stop telling bedtime stories.
Rapist in Hungary are prosecuted and jailed. We in North America wish for the same treatment. In the US, in a sanctuary state an illegal alien raped a 10-year-old girl and he was release. Would you prefer to live in a society that allows illegal aliens rape and murder citizens and released because idiotic governments declare a state as a sanctuary? In Hungary, you are protected by laws that are equally enforced.
I love to read the heated comments between Zsa Zsa and Maria, with whom I agree. Pressman and his woke crap will wither away like Biden’s brain when Trump takes over the reins. Don’t bother coming back, Dave. The DC swamp needs you!
