Well EU is also joining hands in the form of a mega deal with Hungary of Asia…

Don’t be so negative. Let’s do everything to oust Orban. We’re working very hard in the opposition

My bigger fear is that Fico will simply take over his role, at least he seems eager to fill his fat shoes.

Well it looks like the new administration has to start with a massive economical crisis so…

It really won’t. For starters you have Fico, but right wing populists will be elected in Bulgaria and in Slovenia, and in the future they will be elected in other countries. It’s a systematic issue

The EU needs a shared foundation as base to function and mechanism that deal with countries that cause problems.
Like a forced exit when a country doesn’t stop ignore the foundation and doesn’t roll back changes that violate them.
Be a team player or be on your own.
Simple stuff like human rights, not working against the EU for a foreign power that wants to obviously harm the EU, democracy, press freedom, independent justice system,…

Oh piss off, yes it will, because it’s an Orbán problem, not Hungary problem.

I’m thinking that very well is correct. The EU needs to eliminate a single member veto. It’s the same as on the UN. The security council should never have a single member veto!

What the author forgets to mention is that Orbán’s challenger is supported by the part of Hungarian society that stayed pro-EU even after 16 years of relentless Russian-style propaganda and brainwashing. Trust me, considering the scale of that machine, that’s a huge achievement in itself. These voters will absolutely expect a new government to fix Hungary’s relationship with the EU.
The new party is often called unpredictable because it is completely new, with no predecessor party behind it. A lot of voters are cautious about them and support them mainly because they want Orbán gone. In a country this damaged by Orbán’s system, a new government cannot afford to betray its promises. If it does, it will probably get wiped out in four years. Fixing Hungary’s relationship with the EU is one of its core campaign promises.

This is an accurate description of the situation. I would just add that Orbán and his propaganda machine is telling people the EU wants a hot war in Ukraine and if he’s not elected their sons will die there. That’s the kind of fear mongering most people are inundated with on a daily basis from state media, bought out networks and almost all local papers on the countryside. And Orbán is nearing Huxit, so if he’s elected again that very well may happen. Hence why I’m thinking of leaving if Magyar’s majority isn’t big enough.

Well fascism wasn’t defeated forever with Hitlers death either. Still a good thing.

Let’s get rid of Orban and hope that we don’t have to get rid of Hungary. But if we must, we must. Hungary has been the traitor in our midst for far too long.

if Orban is anything like Erdoğan, it will take years if not decades to fix the judiciary, diplomacy, government bureaucracy and every other institution you can think of, and that would be the case if he vanished into thin air tomorrow. remember that something like 40% of the country still support him

the EU needs more countries like Hungary

Well from one federated democracy to another do not give small states too much power.
That is part of our goofy electoral college problem.

You’d think a democratic body like the EU would have the power as a bloc to collectively veto another nation’s membership if they went rogue.

Do you know what Orban didn’t veto?
EU mass surveillance (EU chat control), initiated by Denmark last time. Strange, right?
