Viktor Orbán has been a thorn in the paw of the European dictatorship masquerading as a democracy when the people have no right to vote for any leader, and the Parliament, which they do vote for, has no complete democratic control over other EU institutions, especially the European Commission. It can hold hearings, ask questions, and set up committees of inquiry. Most dramatically, it has the power to pass a motion of censure and force the entire European Commission to resign. It cannot pass laws alone. It can reject proposed legislation entirely, killing the bill. It has done this on numerous occasions, forcing the Commission to go back to the drawing board. However, it has the power to reject the entire annual EU budget. It has no power to alter laws or the budget. It is always an all-or-nothing role.
The European Union has not stripped Hungary of its voting rights over issues related to migrants or Ukraine, but is dying to do so and is now behind closed doors telling Zelensky to create a confrontation with Orban to force Hungary to exit the EU and enter war with Ukraine. On Ukraine’s Independence Day, Zelensky gave Hungary an ultimatum: “You must make a choice.”
Hungary’s Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó fired back with sharp words:
“We firmly reject the Ukrainian President’s intimidation. In recent days Ukraine has carried out serious attacks against our energy supply. An attack on energy security is an attack on sovereignty.”
Ukraine’s Deputy Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha then mocked Hungary, stating:
“Hungary’s energy security is in your own hands. Diversify and become independent from Russia, like the rest of Europe.”
Zelensky is deliberately attacking the national security of Hungary, I believe, at orders from London, the EU, and NATO, who want Hungary out of the EU. The EU has debated stripping Hungary’s voting rights, but no such action has been finalized due to the complex and politically sensitive nature of the Article 7 process. Hungary’s positions on migration and Ukraine remain significant points of tension. For now, Hungary retains its full voting rights. The EU is desperate to get it to leave to the point of instructing Zelensky to cut off Hungary’s energy supply from Russia to cripple the economy, and they hope that will overthrow Orbán.
This dangerous new phase of the war, targeting highly sensitive infrastructure, comes amid defiant speeches in Kiev. There will NEVER be any peace until Zelensky is dragged out of Ukraine in chains. He takes his order against his own people, who want peace.
There have been ongoing discussions and proposals to deal with Hungary under Article 7 of the Treaty on European Union, which allows for the suspension of a member state’s voting rights in cases of severe and persistent breaches of EU values, such as the rule of law, democracy, and human rights. These discussions have been fueled by Hungary’s actions under Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, particularly its vetoes or obstructions of EU decisions on Ukraine aid, sanctions against Russia, and migration policies.
Hungary has repeatedly blocked or delayed EU funding for Ukraine, such as the €50 billion Ukraine Facility package, and opposed Ukraine’s EU accession talks, often citing issues like minority rights or corruption in Ukraine. For instance, Orbán left the room during a key vote in December 2023 to allow EU leaders to reach a consensus on starting accession talks with Ukraine, avoiding a direct veto but still signaling resistance.
Hungary’s vetoes on Ukraine aid and its perceived alignment with Moscow have led to growing frustration. The EU has considered workarounds, like alternative plans to bypass Hungary’s veto on Ukraine’s accession, and some MEPs have pushed for legal action against the European Commission for unfreezing €10 billion in funds for Hungary, seen by critics as a concession to Orbán’s tactics. This is why, covertly, Ukraine has been given the green light to undermine Hungary in hopes of forcing regime change.
Article 7 Proceedings:
The European Parliament triggered Article 7 procedures against Hungary in 2018 due to hyped-up allegations of judicial independence, media freedom, and civil society restrictions. Multiple hearings have been held to discuss potential sanctions, including suspending Hungary’s voting rights. However, no final decision has been made, as Article 7 requires unanimous consent from all other member states, which has been challenging to achieve.
Hungary’s strict anti-migration stance, including the “Stop Soros” law criminalizing assistance to illegal migrants and its 2016 referendum rejecting EU migration quotas, has been a point of contention. Some EU members see these policies as violating EU principles on human rights and solidarity.
The EU has instructed Romania to take in 100,000 migrants from Africa and the Middle East. They really do believe that they can draft all of these migrants to wage war against Russia. That is the backdrop to this crisis, they will NEVER tell the media about because it makes them the aggressor for war.
Our model on the EU, taken from the 1957 Treay of Rome, shows a major crash by 2030. This is where we should expect that the odds of the EU remaining intact post-2030 come into serious question. The EU has been drunk with power and has done precisely the opposite of its promises, from Climate Change to the migrant crisis, all culminating in war.
The shift in trend that the computer was forecasting lined up with the ECM from the start of the Euro, which began on October 20th, 2024 (2024.802). Maia Sandu, the Prime Minister of Moldavia, had the first round of election on October 20th, 2024.
This is also when Kaja Kallas was selected to be the Vice-President of the European Commission as well as High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy. She is about as unbiased as Zelensky, and the two of them belong in the same cell. It was the first time I ever saw him put on a shirt and tie to impress her. I guess he didn’t need to wear his army getup to show he is at war while sending off $50 million per month to a secret account in the UAE.
As I have warned, even Washington, the EU has ZERO intention of allowing any peace deal whatsoever. There was war, and it is either war to destroy Russia and seize its $75 trillion of natural resources to keep the EU alive, or else, it is going to collapse by 2030, and they know that. They will NOT reform the EU even economically. They are married to the goals of Karl Marx – equality and suppressing individualism, just as the USSR did. The right to freedom of speech does not exist in Europe, unlike in the USSR. They are as paranoid as Stalin was who lived in fear of a revolution to overthrow him.
We see October as a turning point for Hungary. Perhaps all the back-stabbing from the EU will come to a head. With Zelensky’s ultimatum, choose sides or else it will come from Kallas and the rest of the Neocons.
