The committee was asked the final question: when will Hungary be rushed?
Judit Varga Judit Varga’s weekend twitter post, a Fidesz politician, likened the European Union to the Soviet Union. A Swiss journalist asked the committee outright when Hungary would be rushed.
Judit Varga posted a provocative post on Twitter on October 23, the national holiday commemorating the 1956 revolution. He wrote: “We remember the freedom fighters who opposed the Soviet tanks. We did not say the Soviet empire and we did not say no to the imperialist ambitions of Brussels,” the minister said.
A spokesman for Swiss public television asked spokesmen about the entry at a press conference at the European Commission at noon on Monday. Tomas Miglierina read the tweet and then said:
“When will Hungary be rushed down? I won’t get to it on Thursday!”
Commission spokesman Eric Mamer said they generally do not respond to politicians’ statements. However, now he made an exception and recalled that during the communist period Hungary was not under occupation at all, it entered the Union voluntarily.
“Hungary of its own free will, a referendum later joined the EU, so it is clear that it has a place in the EU,” said Eric Mamer.
Incidentally, others responded to Judit Varga’s registration in Brussels. For example, Daniel Freund, a German MEP, wrote that years of peaceful tone in Poland and Hungary had led to a radicalization of tone in both countries. Two countries talk about armed threats and inhumane empires. The Polish prime minister told the Financial Times that Brussels would take up arms with financial sanctions.
However, these countries continue to cling to EU money, now destroying Europe in the fight. That is a disgrace, wrote MEP Daniel Freund.
