State Secretary urges EPP to "return to its Christian roots"

State Secretary Csaba Latorcai has urged the European People’s Party (EPP) to "return to its Christian roots" and slammed it for “adopting cancel culture” after Finnish EPP MEP Petri Sarvamaa proposed launching an Article 7(2) procedure against Hungary. In a post on Facebook, Latorcai said the EPP MEP aimed to take away Hungary’s European Union voting rights with a “hate campaign” because the country had taken the position in December that it was too early to start accession talks with Ukraine. A “dictatorship of opinion” has reached the EPP, too, he added, and urged the party to “return to its Christian roots”.
