CLASSIC: Conservative Champion Viktor Orbán Takes Over European Union Presidency – Hungarian PM Vows to ‘Make Europe Great Again’
The Gateway Pundit ^ | July 1, 2024 | Paul Serran

Conservative Champion Viktor Orbán is a man with deep-rooted convictions and opinions. And he has the fortitude to express them in a very frank and direct way.

So, today, the Hungarian Prime Minister takes on the rotating presidency of the European Union, an entity he once described as ‘the contemporary parody version of the Soviet Union’.

He did it his own way – clashing with Brussels every step of the way on a host of issues. He rejected unchecked mass migration, the crippling ‘green policies’ and – of course – the blind backing of Ukraine in the war and the rush towards WW3.

So, to mark his deep differences, Orbán chose as the slogan of his presidency ‘Make Europe Great Again’, to the dismay of the European Mainstream media.

Reuters reported:

“Hungary’s nationalist government launches its presidency of the European Union on Monday with a Trump-like call to “Make Europe Great Again” after EU lawmakers questioned whether it should be allowed to take on the role.”

No doubt. But at least he’ll get to slap them around for a while.

I think Fico was meant to be warning to Orban.

Hungary has become Hollywood’s go to for filmmaking and production now. And I pray their influence doesn’t sabotage what makes the country such a palatable/tax-incentivized location to begin with.

Parts of Eastern Europe are still worth an Alliance. Western Europe can stew in it’s own Islamist/globalist juices.
