Am I dreaming, or did Hungary’s Prime Minister really defend a constitutional amendment that bars his political opponents from Parliament and unlawfully removes the President of the Republic by arguing that it enjoys the unanimous support of a foreign government?
So which is it? Does Hungary still have a sovereign government, or is it simply taking orders from abroad?
Today, Hungary’s Parliament dopted a constitutional amendment that will undermine the country’s constitutional order for the long term.
We say no to this.
Hungary is being pushed toward the gravest constitutional crisis of its modern history by a newly elected Prime Minister who enjoys a constitutional majority and, in theory, should be focused on governing.
Why? A good question. Most likely, a desire for unchecked power.
After failing to force the President to resign, the government now wants to terminate the President’s constitutionally fixed mandate by law. The playbook is the same one used by the communists in 1948. Authoritarianism is accelerating at an alarming pace.
The protests have already begun - even though this is supposed to be the government’s honeymoon period.
Hungarians do not like pocket dictators.
This day brought justice for Marine, a victory for France, and a beacon of hope for the freedom-loving nations of Europe.
We are with you @MLP_officiel!
From the banks of the Danube to the mountains of Colombia: congratulations to President-elect @ABDELAESPRIELLA on your victory! Colombians have made a historic choice and placed their trust in freedom, security and common sense. Patriots around the world are celebrating your victory. ¡Viva Colombia! 🇭🇺🇨🇴
🇭🇺Hungary’s new liberal majority, adopted the Lex Orbán.
Retroactively, it bars any prime minister from serving more than 8 years in office.
❗️This is when political forces want to arrange political competition by legal means.
Rule of law à la Péter Magyar.
For years, Brussels told Europeans not to worry about migration. Then they told us not to believe our own eyes. Now they’re telling us that opposing mass migration is racist and un-European.
Thanks to @EvaVlaar Europeans have a chance to say NO! The @SaveEuropeAct aims to remind Brussels that Europe is not a waiting room for the world. It is our home.
Courage is contagious. Make sure you sign it today!
Congratulations to @JJansaSDS.
Politics rewards endurance. After a hard-fought campaign and difficult negotiations, your perseverance has opened a new chapter for Slovenia and renewed hope for stability and common sense.
Wishing you strength and success for the work ahead!
Our track record speaks for itself. From today, Hungary is led by a liberal government. Let us hope they do not squander what our patriotic forces have built over the past 16 years. 🇭🇺
The new guys must understand one thing very clearly: if you do not fight for Hungary in Brussels, the Brusselians will walk all over you. Giving up our patriotic position and surrendering national sovereignty for money or political approval would be a historic mistake. Foreign elites must not be allowed to decide our future for us! 🇭🇺
Troubled by the news of the attempted shooting of President @realDonaldTrump at an event in Washington. Our thoughts and prayers are with him and Melania. There's no place for violence in politics!
The Brusselian steamroller is already in motion. Our patriotic government protected Hungarian children from aggressive LGBTQ propaganda. Now the Brusselian empire strikes back. We will not give up the fight for the soul of Europe!
Through Brussels, we have received an indication from Ukraine that they are ready to restore oil deliveries via the Friendship pipeline as early as Monday, provided that Hungary lifts its blockade of the €90 billion EU loan. Hungary’s position has not changed: no oil = no money. Once oil deliveries are restored, we will no longer stand in the way of approving the loan. The disbursement of the loan does not impose a financial burden or obligation on Hungary.
A complete renewal is needed. An era has come to an end. We will reorganise, rebuild, and return stronger. I will continue to serve our patriotic community wherever I am needed. 🇭🇺
