World’s richest Hungarian shares when Huxit is most probable
Change language:
In an interview, the richest Hungarian, Thomas Peterffy, shared when he thinks a Huxit (i.e. Hungary leaving the European Union) is most likely. He also talked about Russia’s war in Ukraine, the US political scene, Orbán’s visit to Beijing and his talk with Putin, whether Hungary will stay in the NATO and more.
The world’s richest Hungarian, Thomas Peterffy, gave an interview to Válasz Online. Among others, he shared when a possible Huxit could happen, what he thinks about the Russian-Ukrainian war, about Joe Biden and Donald Trump (the latter just called Hungarian PM Viktor Orbán “the leader of Türkiye” – read what he said HERE).
Huxit: when?
Mr Peterffy said many are convinced that once Hungary becomes a net contributor to the EU, it will leave. According to the billionaire, Hungary has no choice but to cooperate with Russia on energy. However, this is becoming increasingly difficult to explain to people, as Russian dependence has been reduced or eliminated everywhere else in Europe. The Hungarian government seems to be seeking to be neutral between East and West, but Peterffy expressed doubts about this.
Hungary in NATO
“If I were Hungary, I would remain a member of NATO, even if the country were to leave the EU,” Peterffy said.
Russian-Ukrainian war
The billionaire believes that the areas affected by the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, which are predominantly populated by Russians, should probably belong to Russia. He believes this would also benefit Ukrainians, as it would make their nation more homogeneous.
