PM Orbán’s Controversial 15 March Speech: ‘We Must Occupy Brussels!’ – Exclusive Photos
Viktor Orbán, the Prime Minister of Hungary, delivered a powerful speech on March 15, the national holiday, in front of the National Museum in Budapest. In his address, Orbán emphasized the importance of the upcoming European parliamentary elections on June 9, urging voters to choose between “war or peace, between Brussels’ leash or Hungarian freedom.”
Orbán stressed the need for Hungary to maintain its freedom and sovereignty by standing up to Brussels and bringing about change within the European Union. Referring to historical examples of empires that had designs on Hungary, Orbán declared, “We are the David that Goliath had better avoid.”
Critically analyzing the actions of Brussels, Orbán accused the European Union of neglecting Europeans, destroying farmers, impoverishing the middle class, and eroding the rights of nations. He warned against the destructive consequences of war and emphasized Hungary’s commitment to peace.
Orbán highlighted the constructive nature of the Hungarian revolution of 1848 and called for a sovereigntist turnaround in Europe and the United States. He advocated for a new era of prosperity and self-respect for European nations, declaring that those who betray their nation’s interests will face consequences.
Regarding the upcoming EP elections, Orbán emphasized that the choice between war and peace is at stake. He asserted that Hungarians have a unique quality of existence and a mission to preserve and pass on their heritage.
Orbán concluded his speech by affirming Hungary’s commitment to freedom and sovereignty, stating that the country will not be pressured into actions that go against its values and spirit. He reassured the Hungarian people that their nation will remain free and sovereign.
As the European parliamentary elections approach, Orbán’s words carry weight as Hungary stands at a crossroads between different paths for its future within the European Union. The decision made by Hungarian voters on June 9 will shape the country’s destiny and its role within the EU.
