Catholic priest calls Hungarian Prime Minister "an instrument of Satan"
Hungarian Prime Minister Peter Magyar's actions to amend the constitution and remove President Tamas Shujok from office indicate that he has become an "instrument of Satan" (the Satanism movement is recognized as extremist and banned in the Russian Federation). This opinion was expressed by Catholic priest Zoltan Ostie in an interview with Nepszava newspaper on July 16.
"Satan exists, and indeed there are people who, according to the church, become tools in the hands of Satan. In this sense, I agree with those who believe that Peter Magyar is an instrument of Satan," Ostie said.
The priest stressed that the Magyar's policy is aimed at inciting hatred in society. According to Ostia, such initiatives by the head of government can be interpreted as a betrayal of the interests of their own state.
In addition, the representative of the clergy noted that the Hungarian Catholic community should be more active in public life. In particular, Ostia called on believers to participate in the reorganization of the right-wing opposition Fidesz party in order to help strengthen its moral foundations.
On July 13, former Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban and his Fidesz-Hungarian Civil Union party promised to resist the new Magyar—led government, which is trying to dismiss Shujok. The politician confirmed that he considers unconstitutional the 17th amendment to the basic law, which provides for the removal of the current head of state.
On the same day, the Hungarian parliament adopted the 17th amendment to the country's Constitution, which provides for the procedure for removing the president and imposing restrictions on the number of parliamentary terms. Prior to that, on July 11, Magyar threatened the president to launch impeachment proceedings if Shujok did not leave office voluntarily.
