Viktor Orban says the EU needs to be more strong because Russia isn’t taking them seriously

One thing I saw during the whole conflict from the pro Russia side is the praise of Orban for being the last person to put Hungary into the economic destruction that came from the sanctions against Russia from this war that has destroyed every surrounding nation.

Even though he did do little in advancing the EU agenda against Russia he still wants to be apart of the EU and the international community. The same one that is funding left wing opposition in his country that even though he crushes in elections it will fall in the future, even Poland couldn’t escape it. Because American control over Europe is hekin cold war based.

So the Populist lead leader who is being sanctioned by the EU for not being pro democracy is now saying they should be more powerful because Russia isn’t taking their threats seriously.

Russia does not take the EU seriously because the bloc is not assertive enough, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has claimed. If Brussels can improve its standing, Moscow would consider negotiating with it on the Ukraine conflict, he added.

Hungary’s conservative government has long criticized the way the EU operates, accusing it of trampling on the rights of member states. Budapest has also repeatedly described the bloc’s policies toward Kiev and Moscow as misguided since the Ukraine conflict broke out almost two years ago.

During a debate with former Austrian Chancellor Wolfgang Schussel, excerpts from which were published by Austria’s Die Presse newspaper on Sunday, Orban insisted that the EU is “lacking strengths.”

“We are not strong enough to be taken seriously by the Russians,” he stated, adding that the bloc should communicate clearly to Moscow that it has its own interests. The Hungarian prime minister argued that meaningful understanding between the EU and Russia can only be achieved on the basis of mutual recognition of interests.

He warned, however, that unless Brussels changes tack, Russia and the US may end up agreeing on a new security architecture on the continent, over the heads of Europeans.

Orban also criticized the “growing tendency toward centralization that undermines the sovereignty of [EU] member states,” while claiming that the European Parliament in its current form “doesn’t work” and “is a madhouse.” He suggested reverting to an earlier arrangement, whereby member states’ national parliaments sent representatives to the body, as opposed to conducting direct elections.

Orban also suggested that the European Commission should remember it represents the will of member states, rather than being a “political” entity.

Touching on broader global developments, the Hungarian leader asserted that the “West’s dominant position is over,” arguing that the “gravitational center of global economy… is shifting from the West back to Asia.”

A chief adviser to Viktor Orban, Balazs Orban (no relation), last week claimed that “Europe has been basically brought to its knees due to the attitude of the US towards the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.”

What Orban doesn’t know is that giving the EU more power also gives them more strength to use against his own government. He is already attacked for not singing onto EU immigration deals. And he wants to give them more authority because of Russia.

Also this is only done because Putin said he can’t have Hungarian lands in Ukraine which is something that Poland and lesser extent Hungary lowkey want to do since this war started.

Poland has fallen to the EU agenda the Czech Republic and later Hungary are next in the chopping block. Don’t expect them to do an exit since these people would rather be libtards than just be friendly to Russia.
