Red. Łukasz Warzecha spoke in weekly to “To Things” with the Hungarian abroad Minister Péter Szijártó. The politician stressed that Hungary has a fraternal relationship, which slips distant from average political categories and answers the question whether a conservative counter-revolution is possible in Europe.
At the outset of the discussion, the Hungarian politician pointed out that Poland and Hungary had a peculiar bond. – If we ask the average Hungarian how he sees relations with Poland and how he feels about Poles, it would be clear that it is neither relationship nor strategical alliance, but brotherhood. A fraternity with sources in history. So we look at the Polish nation as a fraternal nation, regardless of the political episodes that have occurred recently. – he noted.
He explained that although the government of the Law and Justice organization shared Hungarians' attitude towards the war in Ukraine, relations were common respect and were not accompanied by any individual attacks. – For a change, the present government has considered the goal of constantly insulting us, moving the dispute to a very individual level, presenting unpleasant positions, and clearly does not recognise this peculiar relation as something worthy of respect. This is the fundamental difference between the approach of both governments – he said.
The Hungarian diplomat besides revealed details of Donald Tusk's erstwhile relation with Victor Orban, in the light of which the peculiar behaviour of the head of the Warsaw government is presented today. – First of all, it is worth mentioning that Prime Minister Tusk would never have been president of the European Council if our Prime Minister had not agreed to this. And since I've been working with our prime minister for 19 years, I remember the old days erstwhile both gentlemen first met and had a beautiful good individual relationship. Meanwhile, Mr Tusk is now acting personally very hostile to Prime Minister Orban, our government and our country. Which we profoundly regret due to the fact that we consider that we have not given any reason for specified behaviour said Shijjártó.
He explained on the occasion of Orban's message that Brussels is now a bigger threat to Hungary than Moscow: As part of the European Union, we are taking part in a debate on what the EU should look like in the future. The trend towards the creation of a national superstate emerges from Brussels, immigration is considered beneficial, sovereignty is taken distant from any countries and nations, and aggressive LGBT propaganda is part of normality. We believe that all this is very dangerous for Hungary itself and for European integration in general. erstwhile it comes to Russia – we are not a part of it, we do not gotta argue with it about the future of Europe and integration. So those who sit in Brussels have far more influence on our future than any 3rd country, including Russia.
Asked by ed. He said that the historical relation with Russia was akin in Hungary as in Poland. Hungarians have besides suffered countless harms from russian Russia and are aware of it, but at the same time they are not under the illusion that Russia can now vanish from planet maps and cease to be a real context for shaping politics and economical relations.
– We have respect for history, but we do the current policy with the future in mind. We are most likely different here, but we do not see a chance to get Russia out of brackets in the context of the future of our continent or region. Russia will be here, it will remain, it will be part of global reality. Hence, we want to keep a rational dialog with the Russians, especially given that Russia is crucial for us erstwhile it comes to safety of supply of energy resources – explained Szijjártó.
– Your situation is different, you have access to the sea, but we are a smaller country, without access to sea ports and dependent on others for energy supply. Yes, we did our best to diversify the deliveries, but we are dependent on our neighbors. And since our neighbors and their neighbors have not made adequate investments, we are inactive dependent on Russian sources. This is not about our political views, but about physics, geography and hard reality. Without Russian sources, we would not be able to supply our country. And here I gotta say something that the Polish readers may not like, but erstwhile it comes to our current energy and economical cooperation with Russia, we can absolutely trust on the Russians. They never let us down in this field, broke the contract, fulfilled their obligations and thus provided us with energy safety and economical growth – he added.
He besides recalled the immense scale of Hungary's assistance to Ukraine, including the adoption of 1.3 million refugees and the transfer of electricity, in light of which the European Union's attacks are incomprehensible under the pretext of Hungary's relation with Ukraine. He besides expressed hope that Donald Trump's embrace of regulation would end the war, in which, despite a immense scale of aid, Ukrainians inactive succumb to the Russian offensive.
Finally, the head of Hungarian diplomacy replied to the question of whether a conservative counter-revolution is possible in Europe. – I hope so. It comes from the fact that the pendulum has very powerfully leaned 1 way. Aggressive liberalism and aggressive vocalism are just besides much. People began to realize that this was no longer possible. Completely natural things were questioned – for example, erstwhile we are born, we are either a female or a man, period. erstwhile it comes to household – it was questioned that the father was a man and the parent was a woman. It all creates a counter-reaction. – he said.
– And actually, if you look around, this counter-revolution is already happening. Although the winning organization was hard to keep distant from government in Austria, it will most likely form a coalition government there. The Czechs will vote in September and it is very likely that Prime Minister Babiš will return. Looking at the polls on Poland, I see that if elections were held in Poland today, the PiS and the Confederacy could together gain a majority in the Sejm. Ms Le Pen's organization has late received a million votes more than the next 1 in order in France, and the fact that she does not regulation has only decided on circumstantial electoral ordination. In Italy, Mrs. Meloni is in charge of the right-wing coalition. In Slovakia, Prime Minister Fico is inactive holding well despite powerful attacks against him. A patriotic group leads in polls in the Netherlands. UK improvement is getting stronger. So I think that under president Trump's leadership there may be a large right-wing revolution, not only in Europe, but besides worldwide. – ended Péter Szijártó.
