On the Ukraine war, Orban lamented how even Germany joined those who stand “on the side of the war,” adding that they “did not go from their own will,” even dropping a nasty insult equating the Federal Republic to Nazi Germany (musing “they may still have the old maps”)

Orban’s disgraceful state of the nation speech was a flurry of his greatest hits: apologetic towards Russia, blaming the conflict on the West, berating EU & NATO allies—

peppered by a distasteful joke on Nazi Germany & conflating the LGBTQ+ community with pedophiles (again)👇

… start by looking into credible allegations of collusion with separatists in Bosnia-Herzegovina
RT @katka_cseh: With MEP colleagues, we call for an investigation into Commissioner Varhelyi’s alleged role assisting Milorad Dodik’s separatist escalation in Bosnia-Herzegovina.

The EU needs to stand firmly and credibly on the side of peace. People in BiH and beyond deserve clarity on this.

A low point of this week’s Plenary was Commissioner Varhelyi referring to MEPs as “idiots” in a hot-mic. Yet another example showing Orban’s appointee is unfit for the job

President @vonderleyen should finally stop dodging calls to investigate his many allegations of misconduct

🚨Happening now at the European Parliament. Kurdish activists disrupt the Plenary sitting, MEPs evacuated. Let’s hope everyone stays safe.

Looks like Hungary’s foreign minister had a date in Minsk— undermining a strong & united EU stance at every turn
RT @hadhazyakos: MoFa of visited Minsk, yesterday. This is a shame in itself, but a Russian government plane landed there at the same time. Interesting coincidence…

Our @momentumhu activists just placed these onto the fortified Russian embassy in Budapest— commemorating Orban & co’s bromance with war criminals

Europe’s illiberals proudly stand with one of the most hideous regimes on the face of the planet— a regime torturing and killing innocent people & trashing women’s rights. Disgusting.

Rarely do we see such a contrast— Zelensky, a truly great European, and Orban, the smallest, pettiest one.
RT @jackeparrock: As Ukrainian President Zelensky walks up for the family photo with EU leaders in Brussels, they all seem to clap, apart from one: Hungary’s Viktor Orban.

In the wake of the devastating , one of the most vulnerable areas is Syria’s war-torn North-West.

4 million people have no access to international aid. Bab al Hawa, the only humanitarian corridor that Russia does not block, is now effectively closed.

How to help?👇

Wow, Orban-fans are hitting a whole new level of bonkers to defend his dismal job on the economy—
1) Hungary did not take in a million refugees, that’s a lie. The number is way below the EU average
2) The 25% inflation is twice the EU’s & Orban’s disastrous policies are to blame
RT @JDVance1: Hungary took in a million refugees from Ukraine, something Mr. flag-in-the-bio probably supports. Now he’s dunking on a country of 10 million for the predictable supply short…

RT @viktoriaserdult: Another year, another poster campaign by the government (paid by taxpayers).

„Hungarians have decided. 97% no to sanctions.”

I cannot see the part where they explain that the national consultation the poster is referring to was filled out by only 1,4 million people.

Cowards.
RT @b_novak: It appears Fidesz MEPs didn't even show up to vote on European Parliament's resolution supporting the establishment of a special tribunal to prosecute Russia’s political and military leadership for war crimes.

I wish more (male) leaders would be as willing to reflect on “when it’s time to go.”

Thank you for inspiring generations of women. We’ll miss your leadership,

Bolsonaro supporters copying the January 6 insurrection shocked the world for a reason.

It was chilling example that far-right authoritarianism is contagious.

Nowhere is this more relevant than in the EU, home to the two most rapidly autocratizing countries, Hungary and Poland.
