European Parliament (Strasbourg, France) – The intervention of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban in the European Parliament on Wednesday turned into a confrontation with a large part of the assembly, which criticized his closeness to Vladimir Putin and his attacks on the rule of law.

“The European Union needs to change” and the Hungarian presidency “wants to be the catalyst for this change,” said the nationalist leader, whose country holds the rotating presidency of the EU Council until the end of December.

He repeatedly emphasized the fight against immigration or by questioning the European strategy of supporting Ukraine.

“Your trip (to Moscow in July) was never a peace mission. It was a big propaganda show for autocrats,” said Manfred Weber, the head of the right-wing group (EPP) in Parliament.

“There is only one way to achieve a just peace (…) : we must continue to strengthen Ukraine’s resistance with political, financial, and military support,” asserted the President of the Commission, Ursula von der Leyen. (October 9, 2024)
