RT @eublogo: EU foreign ministers have sent a video message to Ukrainian people to mark the first anniversary of the war. Out of 27 only 1 minister was too busy to make the recording. Guess who 🤔

The European Union needs a strong Media Freedom Act to confront predators of press freedom.

Yet another piece of evidence that Putin planted a hyperactive, eager-to-please Trojan horse within the Western alliance.

Former Trump admin diplomat on @frontlinepbs details how Viktor Orban spread Putin talking points in the White House years before the war
“Orban was in President Trump’s office & told him exactly the Putin line. That Ukraine is not really a nation, it’s corrupt, it can’t resist”

RT @anneapplebaum: !

Thankful to organizers & fellow attendees of the Munich Security Conference #MSC2023— heartwarming to see that Europe is united against Russian aggression
Tellingly, there were no high-level representatives of the Hungarian government, showing their complete isolation on the war

Isolated on the issue of the *actual war*, Orbán is desperate to improve his international standing by pivoting to the *culture war*
We can expect him to double down on an anti-EU disinformation campaign, based on Putin’s playbook.

Again, this was not the first time he used this shameful homophobic slur
RT @katka_cseh: Viktor Orban this morning on national radio: “Homosexuality may also turn into pedophilia, there is much debate over this.”
There is absolutely *zero* legitimate debate over this. This is a shameful homophobic slur.

Orban deliberately conflated LGBTQ+ people with pedophiles. Referring to a recent case, he accused ‘Brussels’ of protecting child abuse.
I really hope the @EU_Commission sets the record straight on that.

He made a joke about Nazi Germany in his July “race-mixing” speech too.
It’s not only deeply distasteful— repeatedly insulting Hungary’s most important trading partner is a next-level diplomatic blunder
RT @katka_cseh: When talking about the energy crisis, Orban said--
"the EU wants everyone to reduce their gas consumption by 15 percent. I don't see how they can enforce it, but there is German know-how for this... From a long time ago, I mean."
Yes, that's a jo…

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.
🐦🔗: https://n.respublicae.eu/katka_cseh/status/1626598627136372736
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…

Our @momentumhu activists just placed these onto the fortified Russian embassy in Budapest— commemorating Orban & co’s bromance with war criminals
🐦🔗: https://n.respublicae.eu/katka_cseh/status/1625468415107293184
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
