The European Union is in “existential danger” because of “dysfunctional” institutions, a persistent austerity policy and outdated treaties, American billionaire George Soros warned in Brussels on Thursday (1 June).
The Hungarian-born philanthropist, who was speaking at the Brussels Economic Forum, said the EU should use the Brexit negotiations to introduce far-reaching reforms and be “radically reinvented”, otherwise it risks ceasing to exist.
”If the European Union carries on with business as usual, there is little hope for an improvement,” he said, adding that the bloc was surrounded by “hostile powers”, such as Russia, Turkey, Egypt, and, possibly US president Donald Trump’s administration.
Soros said that he was encouraged by the “energetic way” EU institutions have responded to the autocratic challenges emerging from Hungary and Poland, which have come under a European Commission probe over rule of law concerns. …

There’s always someone who would have taken his place if he had met an early fate.
Sounds like more unlawful double standards.
Dual citizenship is a contradiction in terms if you ask me.
#2 You got it. “He fancies himself as a would-be Emperor of Europe”. I was just thinking the same thing.
He’s been a Nazi collaborator - KAPO, and proud of it.
He reported resisted the Soviet occupation of Hungary. Need more infor on this.
Set up a Marxist-far-left Soros Open Society Foundation and hired a bunch of anti-American bastards from the Center for National Security Studies (Morton Halperin, also of IPS); John Cavanough, IPS leader; Van Jones - STORM, maoist black terrorist revolutionary wannabes and other.
Collapsed some European currencies with currency speculations that he largely induced.
Funds all kinds of Marxist organizations in the US and some overseas.
Poses as a grandfatherly benign figure just like KGB agent I.F. Stone and Marxist Saul Alinsky did (I met both of them - big wolf fake smiles).
Now Soros wants to become the financial rule of Europe or what is left of it outside of the Russian sphere of influence, and he will do anything to obtain that de facto position before he dies. Then he would pass this on to his leftist son, another waste of protoplasm.
Soros must have been the inspiration for most of the rich villains in the early James Bond films, including Blofeld, Drax, etc.
He is evil personified. Time for him to go to hell.
Nazi collaborator billionaire George Soros. Bet that there’s no mention of his collaboration on his entry visa or application for citizenship.
I doubt that he is still a Hungarian citizen: a) they are after him; b) booted his NGOs out of Hungary and c) on SS United States ship’s passenger log he claimed to be stateless (no citizenship).

[Philanthropist is someone who profits from sending their fellow Jews to the ovens? Who knew?]
Beat me to it. Apparently, being a Nazi collaborator and participant in wanton murder makes one a “philanthropist”.
How is it that governments let this man disrupt things? I’m all for sending him to Russia, where he’s reportedly wanted.
From Wikipedia
Soros described Donald Trump as a con man.[153] Soros expects Trump to fail because Soros believes Trump’s ideas are self-contradictory. Soros believes Trump is preparing for a trade war and expects financial markets to do badly.[154]
To the EU Observer: Don’t EVER refer to George Soros as an “American” billionaire. He is nothing but a traitor, a thief, and a murderer. That he wasn’t taken out years ago is a shame shared by the entire world.
SOB should be skinned alive.
The left gaslight constantly.
I’ve often wondered if the Bond villains were based on him or if he saw the movies and decided the villains were cool and strove to be one.
There are two different existential threats to the world today- Socialism and Islam. The earth might be a pretty nice place without them.
after 9/11 there was a push to stop security clearances being given to dual citizens. Quietly shelved.
Most Americans would be horrified how many dual nationals are working in the Federal Gov’t and hold elected office. Quiet a few have fought in foreign militaries.
It’s like calling the child rebelling against an abusing parent “autocratic”. Orwellian to the max.
“There’s always someone who would have taken his place if he had met an early fate.”
True, but at least we’d have the satisfaction of knowing this bastard is turning on a spit in Hell! There would be some comfort in that.
Poland an autocracy?
What a bastard.
philanthropist?? ..... not exactly
philanthropist - one who loves mankind.
The antithesis of who George Sores is. He loves only money and the power it brings. He was willing that fellow prisoners were sacrificed to save his sorry self.
Well, he is of course correct.
Europe is in a EU rut leading off a cliff. The French voters pretty much indicated they can’t tolerate change.
In some respects, Soros was parroting Merkel
