The European Parliament has voted again on a report on the rule of law conditionality of the EU budget. With this, the left-wing majority in the EP has reaffirmed its political will to severely limit the sovereignty of Hungary and Poland and to help to come to power left-wing puppet governments in these countries as well, serving the interests of Brussels in every way.
In his speech, Fidesz MEP Tamás Deutsch said: “No one knows anymore how many rule of law resolutions the European Parliament has adopted so far, its decision is another attack on the Community law, on common values and on the European cooperation. It is a disgrace what they are doing and they do it in a disgraceful way, turning the European Parliament into a soviet type ideological tribunal, crossing again and again the red line against those Member States that reject anti-democratic orders of Brussels”.
MEP Tamás Deutsch emphasized: “We have no doubt even for a moment that we will fight for our freedom and independence! Hungary is a well-functioning democracy, a fair country governed by the rule of law, where fundamental rights are guaranteed, and people live in even greater freedom than in the western part of the continent. They can’t force us to kneel, they can’t starve us, Hungarians! For us, Hungary is our passion.”
In connection with the plenary vote on the report, Fidesz MEP Ádám Kósa said: “We got to the point when the European Parliament adopts various reports on the state of the rule of law in Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovenia or Bulgaria on a weekly basis and votes on resolutions to impose financial sanctions on these Member States. The European political amok motivated by various interests has completely misled the Parliament and irreversibly destroyed the institution’s prestige and reputation. These processes must be stopped, because they are the real threat to the rule of law in Europe!” he added.
Background: Regulation 2020/2092 of the European Parliament and of the Council on general conditions for the protection of the EU budget was adopted by the co-legislators on 16 December 2020. As part of the budget negotiations, the EU Heads of State and Government agreed that the mechanism would protect the EU’s financial interests and could not be used for political, ideological purposes. The regulation has been challenged by Hungary and Poland before the Court of Justice of the European Union, a case has not yet been handed down.
