Ukraine is disappointed that Hungary’s resistance has taken too long to adopt the EU sanctions package
“You can understand that he is a dictator,” he said at the Mass for Viktor Orbán.
Parish priest Zoltán Osztie also said that the Prime Minister “is shining like a torch in decadent, non-Christianized Europe”.
Viktor Orbán is celebrating his birthday on May 31st. The Hungarian prime minister turned 59 on Tuesday. On this occasion, a Thanksgiving Mass was held early in the evening in the Downtown Great Church in Budapest. The Mass was celebrated by the parish priest Zoltán Osztie, the former president of the Association of Christian Intellectuals.
THE hvg.hu according to his account, the parish priest chose the prayer of Christ at the last supper on the occasion of the special day, which he said, not by accident. He believes that the Prime Minister is fulfilling his own mission with the power of Jesus, which, although not comparable to the Savior’s mission, also serves to protect Christianity from the dangers that lie ahead.
He put it: Orbán “shines like a torch in decadent, non-Christianized Europe”,
for there is hardly any leader left on our continent to represent Christian interests. Osti believes God himself intended this task for the head of government, so he became the messenger of Christ to the people, who “with unshakable courage” does the task entrusted to him, that is, “represents the interests of the nation in a hostile environment that threatens to be swallowed up.”
“It is often said that a dictator … can understand this well,” said the parish priest, who said that only a good leader could dictate.
He is convinced that a statesman must lead by example, caller, vision, positive vision and be able to show where he wants the desired goal and move towards it with his people. And Viktor Orbán has said countless times that Hungary is moving forward, not backward.
Former Minister Miklós Kásler would have attended the mass, but sent only one message referring to illness, which was read by members of the denomination. In it, for example, he wrote that the prime minister had become lonely in a deteriorating, non-Christianized, liberal world.
