Would the European Union be interested in Nancy Pelosi?



If only Democrats cared as much about America and Americans...

...but they don't. And the Democrats have repeatedly demonstrated this.

Not a coincidence that they tried to take out Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico.

Europe’s most extreme globalist country by far, and in a spectacular way, is no other than Orban’s Hungary! Since they are pro-actively “selling out” to China.

Viktor Orban’s Hungary is compromising Hungary’s strategic independence. Here are a few key points:

Belt and Road Investments: Hungary is the most CCP China-friendly country in the EU, actively engaging in China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). A major example is the Budapest-Belgrade railway project, largely financed by Chinese loans.

Chinese companies are investing heavily in Hungary, particularly in EV battery production. Hungary is set to become Europe’s largest EV battery hub, with CATL and BYD establishing major plants. These investments create jobs but also deepen Hungary’s reliance on Communist China.

Political alignment with Beijing and China’s Communist party:
Hungary has repeatedly obstructed EU efforts to criticize China’s human rights abuses and corruption, including issues in Hong Kong and Xinjiang.

Hungary allowed Huawei to play a significant role in its 5G network, despite massive Western security concerns.

Loans with high debt risks: Many of Hungary’s China-backed projects are funded through opaque loan agreements that critics say could lead to economic dependency.

Since 2010, Orban has positioned Hungary as a bridge between China and the EU, distancing itself from traditional Western allies. His fascination for communist countries is becoming a concern.

While Hungary benefits economically by collaborating with communism in China, this relationship raises concerns about political leverage China could exert over Hungary and at the same time destabilizing Europe.

ALSO:
Orban is Europe’s BIGGEST GRIFTER:

This is the problem:
Orban is hooked on EU subsidies like a junkie on fentanyl — completely dependent and unwilling to quit. Hungary is first (maybe second) recipient in Europe, raking in nearly 5% of its GDP from EU funds and subsidies every single year, it’s massive!! And what does the EU get in return? Nothing. Just a bottomless pit of handouts with no accountability. It’s both outrageous and pathetic.

Your right, we must eliminate the EU, the biggest blackmailer in the world, well next to the UN and WEF. So I guess really we need to eliminate the EU, UN, and WEF. I find it interesting that you seem to believe that by being a recipient of EU monies, nations such as Hungary are supposed to commit racial suicide like England, France and Germany at a snap of the EU’s fingers. F’k he EU.

Hungary is compromised because they get 80% of their oil and/or energy from Russia.

I suspect Slovakia is too.

For your information the British Chancellor of the Exchequer Rachel Reeves visited China as one of her first official acts looking for Chinese investment in the UK. Most EU economies are not doing great.
Hungary is doing better than the big economies in the EU and doing better than the UK economy.

Below Hungary: The Netherlands (1.6%), Finland (1.5%), Belgium (1.2%), Estonia (1.1%), Latvia (1.0%), Italy (1.0%), Austria (1.0%), France (0.8%), and Germany (0.7%) are all projected to grow more slowly than Hungary.

Hungary is not compromised.
They were getting great Russian natural gas at very good prices.
Same with Germany.
German economy is not doing so great after Biden bombed Nordstream 2.

“Curious, nothing stopping Hungary and Slovakia leaving the EU, $$$$”

>>>>>>>>>>>>>><

Indeed!
But those grifter countries are soooo dependent on EU taxpayer’s money - especially Hungary. They are hooked on EU subsidies. Those who rely on subsidies are socialists. Thus Orban is EU’s most socialist grifter.

Again, Orban’s socialist doctrine is raking in nearly 5% (!) of its GDP from EU funds and subsidies every single year, and the EU gets nothing in return, not even a “thank you”. Let Orban join Russia, let the Kremlin pay for his grifting attitude - it would tank the Russian economy in a nice way. Nah, maybe that’s a bad idea, Russia would place nukes all over Hungary... to threaten Europe even further....

Frankly, who cares about your opinions — or mine? Our pinions are irrelevant here. What I present are historical facts and verified political events — undisputed and easily accessible to anyone willing to look.

If the truth stings, that’s life. You’ll thank me later for showing you reality, even if it may bruise your ego a little.
