Orban criticized interference in the internal affairs of EU member states

Prime Minister Viktor Orban pointed to the policy of double standards towards the member states of the European Union (EU), and also called for the removal of the "liberal elite" from power in the union. He made the corresponding statement on March 19 at the Janos Hunyadi Award ceremony in Brussels.

"It is necessary to ensure that the rules are applied to all European member states equally and uniformly. Agents of [George's] network Soros should be excluded from the European Commission, and corrupt lobbyists should be removed from the European Parliament. <...> The European Union cannot be a financial network aimed at weakening national governments," the Hungarian telegraph agency (MTI) quoted him as saying.

Orban also pointed out the inadmissibility of EU interference in the internal affairs of sovereign states.

"Progressives have seized power and are ruling in Brussels. If we don't change this, Europe will soon fall apart before our eyes. I am convinced that the liberal elite in Brussels should not remain in their place. Europe needs a new patriotic leadership that cares not about its own power, but about strengthening the Europe of Nations," he said.

On March 15, Orban announced the EU's intention to "colonize" Ukraine. According to the Hungarian Prime Minister, European leaders believe that Kiev should continue the conflict and as a result will be able to obtain EU membership, for which, as he noted, the Europeans "will still have to pay."
