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 #Hungary visited Minsk, #Belarus yesterday. This is a shame in itself, but a Russian government plane landed there at the same time. Interesting coincidence…

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. #EUCO

In the wake of the devastating #earthquakes, 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 #Hungarian 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.

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.
