PM Orbán: Tisza Party will do what Brussels wants

The prime minister said Tisza had made an agreement with EPP leader Manfred Weber, under which "Tisza receives support from the EPP".

Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said Hungary's opposition Tisza Party is supported by the European People's Party and "in return they will do what Brussels wants".

In his weekly interview with public radio on Friday, PM Orbán said Tisza had made an agreement with EPP leader Manfred Weber, under which "Tisza receives support from the EPP". He said, for example, that "funds for Hungary are suspended and worsening living conditions will help Tisza to power; in return, Tisza will do all that Brussels wants it to do."

With Tisza in power, "Hungary will no longer be migrant-free, because they will allow illegal migrants to enter; there will be no child protection because they will set LGBTQ free, and Hungary will no longer be in the peace camp, because we will join the countries supporting military operations in Ukraine," the prime minister said.

According to PM Orbán, Tisza's program now includes the "Brussels' requirement" of granting Ukraine a fast-track accession procedure.
