If a warm handshake with Russian President Vladimir Putin weren’t provocative enough, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban went into an EU summit Thursday saying he was right to meet the EU’s foremost enemy and that most of the other leaders were wrong.
Orban characterized himself as the only one actively seeking peace in Ukraine, though his controversial stance on Russia appears to have gained an ally within the EU with the addition of new Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico, with both threatening to obstruct EU aid to Ukraine, much of which requires unanimity amid the 27 nations.
Most EU leaders weren’t taking it. “It’s really more than strange to see that we start to flirt with the regime who is committing very cruel atrocities,” said Lithuanian President Gitanas Nauseda. “It sends a very wrong message to anybody.”
It’s because they don’t give a shit about anything other than themselves.
Organ couldn’t care less what Russia would do to Hungary or the Hungarian people. Hell, he doesn’t give a shit about the people at all. Orban, and people like him, only care about what Russia can do for him personally. He cares about himself only.
If he could get away with selling half or Hungary to Russia and benefiting from it, he would do it in a heartbeat.
