What happened? Lots of Russian flags in the Hungarian Parliament
The Hungarian National Assembly would have held an extraordinary session because of the Russian hackers infiltrating the foreign affairs ministry and President Sulyok’s controversial land purchase issue. The Momentum Movement demonstrated with Russian flags.
The extraordinary session was the idea of the opposition parties, but PM Orbán’s ruling coalition, the MPs of Fidesz and KDNP parties remained absent. Therefore, it lacked a quorum and ended in 40 minutes.
However, the pro-EU Momentum Movement wanted to demonstrate, so they placed Russian flags on the seats of the members of the Orbán cabinet. That comes after the press wrote Russians hacked the systems of the Hungarian foreign ministry and acquired tremendous data. Afterwards, they decorated FM Szijjártó, who did not summon and ask for an explanation from the Russian ambassador after the scandal broke out.
Instead, he said such attacks happen all the time, so there is nothing to worry about. He added he is not even concerned about the cyberattack we detailed in THIS article.
Momentum said they would not like Hungary to become a Russian or Chinese colony.
Here are some photos of the Russian flags in the Hungarian parliament:
Hungarian presidency to offer alternative to current EU policies
The Hungarian presidency of the Council of the European Union to start on July 1 can offer a good alternative to current EU policies, the president of the Hungarian Institute of International Affairs (HIIA) said on Friday. Gladden Pappin said in his opening address at a conference dubbed Sovereignty and Integration – 20 Years of Hungary in the EU that the European continent had once again become the scene of ideology-based battles.
He said that in recent years, Europe’s economic competitiveness declined and its social cohesion significantly weakened. The EU needs a new concept and policy which could make the community a stronger and more significant player in the world, Pappin said, adding that he expected positive changes as a result of the Hungarian presidency.

Russia = oppression, corruption, and economic misery for the population. Hungary has been sucked into the black hole of Russian control. When enough people wake up and understand the need to take action it will be very difficult to escape the control of the Fidesz elite. It works relentlessly to bring all areas of government, business and society under its’ domination. They are even brainwashing children in schools to dislike the West and downplay the brutal history of Russian oppression in Hungary. Hungary may be finished as a prosperous democratic country. There’s no future for young people under the Fidesz regime. The talented and ambitious are leaving Orbaniston in droves leaving the untalented and unambitious to run Hungary and you know what you will get from that.
