Looks like there will not be any Right Sector type joint charity concerts of Jobbik and jewish community


Anti-Semitic Jobbik Party Gains Power; Hungarian Jews Frantic

Hungarian Jewish community alarmed after election results reveal Jobbik is second largest party in Hungary

Jews in Hungary

Yoni Kempinski


The Jewish community of Hungary has expressed great concern in recent days, following the results of local elections, where far-right party Jobbik has become the second largest party in Hungary, after winning control of fourteen cities and towns.

This represents a significant achievement for the party - which, in the previous local elections four years ago, received control of only 3 cities.

Just two months ago, during Operation Protective Edge, Mihaly Zoltan Orosz, mayor of Erpatak in eastern Hungary, held an anti-Semitic ceremony in the city's main square.

During the ceremony, effigies of Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and former president Shimon Peres were "hung" in a mock execution.

One week later, police raided the home and offices of the anti-Semitic mayor and brought him in for questioning.

Another Jobbik party member and parliament representative caused an uproar when he called on the government to make a registry of all of Hungary's Jews.

The Conference of European Rabbis sees these election results as further proof of the rise of anti-Semitism in Hungary.

"We are concerned and we expressed our concerns to the heads of the European Union (EU) as well as to the leaders of European governments, who see eye to eye with us on the need for a war to eradicate rising anti-Semitism and anti-Semitic manifestations. We will continue our activities to increase and glorify Torah and Israel in Europe, because we all believe that Light rejects Darkness."

In Hungary's last parliamentary elections, which took place in April, Jobbik already showed a marked increase in power. The party won 20.3% of the vote, with most of the support coming from poor areas in the east of the country.

Jobbik's biggest achievement during last week's elections was recorded in the northeast city of Ozd, which holds 35 thousand inhabitants. The new mayor of Ozd, David Janiczak, 27, took a victory lap around the city, shaking the hands of cheering residents.

Jobbik respects the results of the Donetsk and Lugansk elections



Jobbik Movement for a Better Hungary respects the elections held in the Donetsk and Lugansk Oblasts as well as their outcome, even though the circumstances of voting were not ideal due to the armed conflict that had been going on for half a year.

The fights pose grave challenges for the region. There is a humanitarian disaster situation in Donetsk and Lugansk, hundreds of thousands of people have left their homes for safer areas. Consequently, elections had to be held in the refugee camps in Russian territory as well as in the two oblasts.

Undoubtedly, there were certain objective obstacles for undisturbed elections, such as the one mentioned above, yet Jobbik's observers have concluded that the basic requirement of democracy was met, i.e that citizens must be allowed to make an independent decision about their own future. Jobbik recognizes the vote as transparent and reflecting the will of the citizens.

Jobbik's observers arrived for the elections upon the invitation of the Election Committee of the Donetsk People's Republic. However, their visit had another purpose as well: beside observing the elections, they also wanted to gain personal experience about the events going on in Eastern Ukraine. Previously, we had experienced that the Western and the Hungarian media fails to provide news coverage other then repeating the unilateral propaganda of the Kiev government.

Jobbik welcomes the elections held in Donetsk and Lugansk because they may be instrumental in the restoration of peace in the region. By attacking its own citizens with armed forces, the Kiev government has forfeited the trust and loyalty of the local Russian community with Ukrainian citizenship. Democratic systems are based on the people's trust in their governments and their belief in democratic self-governance. Kiev has violated the fundamental rules of democracy by waging a war on its own citizens. Thus the Russian minority's demand to elect a leadership that represents their interests and protects them can be considered rightful and justified, which Jobbik accepts and respects as well.

Hungary’s Authoritarian Descent
By KATI MARTONNOV. 3, 2014

BUDAPEST — Budapest shimmers on a balmy fall afternoon. Danube cruise ships disgorge hundreds of tourists. Thanks partly to the European Union’s generous subsidy, this jewel of a city has never looked better.

But minutes from the Danube, if you cross Freedom Square, you find evidence of the dangerous new direction in which Prime Minister Viktor Orban is taking his country. At one end of the square looms a disturbing memorial newly erected at his behest. A fierce bronze eagle swoops down on an angel, as if about to peck out its eyes. The monstrous bird depicts Germany and the beautiful angel is Hungary. “A monument to the victims of the German Occupation” reads the inscription.

That might seem unobjectionable, but, in fact, it is a disturbingly nationalistic rewriting of history. Hungary, far from an angel, was the first country in post-World War I Europe to pass anti-Semitic legislation, well ahead of Germany, in 1920. By 1944, restrictions on Jewish life in Hungary matched those of Germany under its Nuremberg Laws. Over half a million Hungarian Jews were exterminated during the last months of the war. The Nazi commander Adolf Eichmann greatly benefited from local help in “cleansing” Hungary of its Jewish citizens. It was Hungarian gendarmes who led their fellow Jewish citizens — my grandparents included — to trains bound for Auschwitz. No mention of what jews did to Hungarians under communism. Never any mention of that. Read Irving's Uprising, which is free online.

All of that history has been effaced by the monument, which has prompted a vigorous response from people with memories of what really happened here in the last six months of the war. They have improvised a memorial of their own. Stones painted with the names of the towns from which they were deported, along with bits of memorabilia from their lives — glasses, old suitcases, shoes — line the sidewalk in front of the angel and the bird. On a darkening fall evening, parents whisper stories of the lost to their children, barely glancing up at the other memorial.

The two monuments — the official and the improvised — are a metaphor for what is happening in Hungary today. A once-promising democracy is rapidly sliding toward xenophobia and authoritarianism. Democracy is a wink-word. If the people were duly voted in, what's the problem? How can it be anti-democratic? Oh. Democracy means voting the right way, not just voting, with votes honestly counted. Mr. Orban claims ever-greater powers, as the population sees its freedoms curtailed. Like the recently jew-directed government cancellation of the pro-white conference?

What makes this extraordinary is that Hungary is a member of both NATO and the European Union — and blatantly defies the core values of both. Having announced that an “illiberal democracy” is his goal for Hungary, Mr. Orban defies the European Union, even though it accounts for 95 percent of Hungary’s public investments. So far, European governments’ reaction to Mr. Orban’s policies have been muted. (The Union did condemn a proposed tax on Internet traffic, a highly unpopular measure that Mr. Orban rescinded on Friday.)

Through a new media law, the state virtually controls the press, especially television, the primary source of news. This has had enormous political impact and helped Mr. Orban win re-election last spring. Jews aren't against dictatorial control. It's their favorite kind. So long as they are the dictators.

Reporters do not fear for their lives — merely their livelihoods. During a recent mission by the Committee to Protect Journalists that I led to Budapest, we found a climate of fear and self-censorship among Hungarian colleagues. Through state advertising budgets, the government exerts tremendous influence. Recently, when a popular website, Origo, reported that Mr. Orban’s chief of staff, Janos Lazar, had spent extravagant sums on a state trip, the reporter who broke the story was fired. Dozens of staff members resigned in protest, and they have now started another news portal. The regime also sees nongovernment organizations as dangerous sources of resistance. Recently police raided a Norwegian-supported group that supports civil society in Hungary, confiscating laptops and hard drives. Good old Scandinavians. Trying to destroy pro-white government in Hungary the way they helped do the same in South Africa.

Mr. Orban has assumed the swagger of the politician he most admires: Vladimir V. Putin. Like Mr. Putin, Mr. Orban acts as if he is accountable to no one. He is Hungary. Some three million people live in poverty, yet the state builds huge soccer stadiums, including one in Mr. Orban’s tiny home town, in a country with a mediocre soccer team — mostly because the prime minister is obsessed with the game. At a recent news conference, when a reporter asked an official the reason for a certain new law, he received a one-word answer, appropriate for a badly behaved child: “Because.”

One art form Mr. Orban has (inadvertently) spurred, however, is the fine art of the Budapest Joke — moribund since the fall of Communism. One I heard repeated has Viktor Orban looking at himself in a mirror and saying, “My eyes are my mother’s, my nose is my father’s, my chin” — the Hungarian word for chin and state is the same — “is mine.”

One consequence of the newly repressive environment is that half a million people have left in recent years, to make new lives in Western Europe and the United States. “I could wait another five years,” says Gabor Kardos, the editor of a news website, “but I don’t want my children raised in this kind of society.” He shows me one of his children’s textbooks. From among several ethnicities pictured, grade-schoolers were asked to pick the real Hungarian.

To the outside world, Mr. Orban portrays himself as the bulwark against Jobbik, the anti-Semitic, anti-Roma party. But far from crushing Jobbik, he has in fact institutionalized much of its rhetoric. Anti-Semitism is not yet rampant, but with rabid nationalism and intolerance for civil liberties both growing, many Hungarian Jews fear that it can’t be far behind.

When Hungary was granted membership in the European Union a decade ago, it was a different country. After centuries of foreign occupations, savage, homegrown fascists and brutal Communists, it was taking its first hesitant steps toward democracy. Having experimented with a more open socialism, dubbed “Goulash Communism,” it had a head start on other Soviet satellites.

At the time, Mr. Orban seemed well placed then to lead Hungary to a different future. On June 16, 1989, I stood in a sea of 300,000 Hungarians on Heroes’ Square in Budapest and heard the young, bearded Mr. Orban call on the Soviet Army of occupation to leave. A few months later, Hungary cut the Iron Curtain, allowing thousands of East German tourists to pour across the Austro-Hungarian frontier. Soviet rule was over.

Mr. Orban’s challenge to the European Union is also direct: Beyond markets, open borders and miles of red tape, just what does the 28-nation union really stand for?

Ukraine will never be the same again - a report from Donieck

Ukraine will never be the same as it used to be in the past 23 years. Ukraine's "territorial integrity", which Western countries and unfortunately, the Hungarian diplomatic corps keep repeating subserviently is nothing but an illusion any more, says Jobbik's deputy parliamentary group leader Márton Gyöngyösi, who participated in the election in South-East Ukraine as an observer.


"According to Together-Dialogue for Hungary Alliance you pose a national security risk since you participated as an observer in the elections held in the separatist counties of South-East Ukraine while you are also a vice president of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Hungarian National Assembly. In the opposition party alliance's view, you are representing Russian interests, which is proven by your trip to Donieck."


"It's always rather amusing when Together-DH voices accusations of other politicians of serving foreign interests and quotes national security risks. If there is a party which openly and demonstrably serves foreign interests in Hungary, it's the party alliance established by Gordon Bajnai. You may remember that Bajnai disappeared after the Y2010 elections for two years: he was touring the USA at his American employers' expense. Having gone through the appropriate education and training courses, he came home and established a foundation called Patriotism and Progress, which received over one bn HUF subsidy by 2013 (within a year, that is) from the Center for American Progress, a Foundation affiliated to the Democratic Party of the US. As a matter of fact, this is the amount that we know about and was declared by the foundation, but as for how much additional subsidy they received, I will leave it to the readers' imagination. Bajnai's foundation was one of those non-governmental organizations that were instrumental in the creation of Together-DH party alliance. We know very well that the US does not hand out millions of dollars to foreign NGOs for charity purposes. These subsidies always come at a price: the subservient representation of US geopolitical interests. In our modern world, nation states are no longer subdued by direct application of power well-known from the era of colonization. Instead, they use "soft power." This is a complex and highly effective weapons arsenal, which incorporates an obscure network of media, propaganda, the intelligence services, credit rating institutes and non-governmental organizations. Their job is to exert political and economic influence and pressure. By now, it has become completely obvious for even the politically blind and deaf how the American government applies the tools of soft power and the vassal network run by Bajnai in order to exercise pressure on Hungary. If there was just a mere glow of what once was the fire of national sovereignty in Hungary, then Gordon Bajnai and his partners would be spending the rest of their years in a prison cell for high treason. It is a telltale sign about the current state of the nation that they are not. I spoke a bit more about Bajnai and his party than necessary, as the outcome of the elections has demonstrated that you shouldn't even waste two compound sentences on them. Yet this phenomenon reveals more about the state of Hungarian political life, our national sovereignty and the geopolitical efforts of the US than anything else. The Ukrainian crisis, which is the subject of this interview, has been driven by very similar underlying processes."




Voodoo, stigmatization, propaganda


"Let's start with the beginning! How did you get to Donieck and why was it important for Jobbik to delegate an observer? Your trip was reported in the American Vice magazine as well. In fact, I even read articles saying that Jobbik sent pseudo-observers to Donieck. So what is the truth? What's your reaction to the fact that Jobbik's trip to Eastern Ukraine is reported as a key theme in the US media?"


"Ukraine is the latest front in the geopolitical conflict between the West and Russia. When the Western colonization, or to use the politically correct terminology: the Euro-Atlantic integration of Central Eastern Europe was completed, the front moved to the east, closer to Russia. As I mentioned before, this conflict is fought by sophisticated tools, including media manipulation, propaganda, and of course, a voodoo-like labelling and stigmatization as well. So we'd better keep that in mind when we read the adjectives stamped on the observers of the Donieck elections by the Western media. I am not surprised, in fact, Jobbik feels honoured to enjoy this special attention of the Western media, with particular regard to our statements and activities related to the Ukrainian crisis. The reason is that we are the only significant political force in Europe that can draw ruthlessly accurate conclusions and has the courage to speak out and stand for them equally ruthlessly, in Hungary and abroad as well. In other words, the reason why Jobbik is the No.1 enemy of Western power centres is because we are independent, incorruptible and cannot be subdued to Euro-Atlantic interests. As far as the observation of the Donieck elections of November 2 are concerned, my colleague Adrienn Szaniszló and I got a personal invitation from the chairman of the central election committee. She stayed in Rostov-on-Don on the Russian side and observed the elections held in the refugee camp that was set up for those who had fled the Donbass region and the atrocities of the Ukrainian army. We were happy to accept the invitation since we were curious what the truth was that the unilateral and biased Western propaganda had been trying to hide. I don't appreciate opinion shapers who like to discuss social, political and economic problems and to make sweeping statements from a safe distance. As an MP, I believe in experience gained through personal presence. We went there to see the damage and pain caused by the civil war with our own eyes, to talk about it with these people, to listen to their personal accounts, stories, tragedies, and of course to observe the election process."



"What was your experience in the people's republic? What conditions can you report? What is Western media coverage hiding from us?"



Arriving at the border from Russia, what we immediately noticed was the depressing presence of civil war: a large number of armed rebels, the constant sight of military vehicles, our military and security escort were permanent reminders of where we were. On the road between the border and Donieck, then inside the city of Donieck and also when we were travelling to the north of Donieck to a town called Gorlovka near the frontline, we always noted how little civilian movement was on the roads, and how many military checkpoints there were. You could hardly see any people in the streets, even by daylight. After dark there is a night curfew, so Donieck, which had nearly one million inhabitants before the war broke out, looks like a huge ghost town now. By night, you could hear the low rumble of cannons several times. The aftermath of war is striking to the eye in the villages, in the agglomeration of Donieck and in the entire area of Gorlovka (there were heavy clashes between the rebels and the Ukrainian army there). You can often see walls "decorated" with bullet marks, burnt-out military vehicles, cartridge and rocket shells. In spite of all that, the town got lively on the election day, people were standing in long lines in front of the poll stations, waiting patiently for their turn. Even though the procedure of the elections could not be considered ideal due to the civil war and the flood of hundreds of thousands of refugees, we can say that there was a very high voter turnout in Donieck, Luhansk and the refugee camps in Russia as well. People were apparently very interested in casting their ballots, you could see how aware they were that they were exercising their rights of self-determination, deciding about their own fate and future. The declaration of the will of these millions of people deserves respect even if the circumstances didn't make this election a typical and ideal one.




No illusions


"Russia is the only country to recognize the elections. What can you expect in a situation like this? What changes can we expect now that the elections are over? Will there be peace?"




“The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Kremlin, more accurately Yuri Usakov, the foreign policy advisor of President Putin said as much that Russia respects the outcome of the elections. It is a little but significant difference. In my view, the only reason why Moscow did not go as far as to officially recognize the election is a tactical reason. Such a step obviously would have further deepened a Russia-West conflict that is already in ominous depths, thus compromising the acceptance of the election results that can be considered historic. I don't want to overemphasize the role of these diplomatic subtleties but it is a clear indication of the calm and responsible attitude that Russia demonstrates with regard to the situation. What does the future hold? I am neither a clairvoyant, nor do I appreciate speculations, but I think we can safely say that Ukraine will never be the same as it was in the past 23 years. Ukraine's "territorial integrity", which Western countries and unfortunately, the Hungarian diplomatic corps keep repeating subserviently is nothing but an illusion any longer. During the year of this raging crisis, the Ukrainian leadership had several opportunities to save Ukraine. However, such a move would have required an independent, sovereign, truly Ukrainian political elite, one that considers the interests of the entire Ukrainian population, including the Russian-speaking citizens of Eastern Ukraine. Instead, a power group that is supported by the Soros and the Konrad Adenauer Foundations, the Western propaganda, and is completely subordinated to the Euro-Atlantic, i.e. the US interests was raised into power by a coup d'état. They work on promoting US geopolitical interests instead of the Ukrainian people. The geopolitical interest of the US is to reach as far as the Russian border by annexing, or to use the politically correct term, by "integrating" the entire territory of Ukraine. If a government declares war on its own citizens, it immediately loses the confidence of those citizens as well as the right to represent them. What did Mr. Turchinov, Yatseniuk and Poroshenko expect after they launched a war against the Russian minority in Eastern Ukraine and massacred thousands of civilians, grossly violating international law? Did they expect the Russian minority to participate in the Ukrainian elections on October 26 and choose between Poroshenko's and Yatseniuk's party and the Ukrainian Chauvinist Svoboda? And what did the West expect? Did they expect the Russians of Eastern Ukraine to turn to the West with tears of joy in their eyes, after the West exceptionally failed to hold the puppet government, which had been put into power through a coup d'état, accountable for respecting minority and human rights, and, in fact, was instrumental in a genocide? Even the thought is offensive and absurd. The citizens of Donieck and Luhansk did what they had to do: they made a decision about their own fate. Now it depends on Kyiv and of course, the owners of the Kyiv government whether they can deliberate the issue soberly. If they can, there will be peace, if not, then the conflict will escalate and have unforeseeable consequences."



"What are the implications of your ban from Ukraine?"


"It means that I cannot enter the territory of Ukraine in the future. I'm not quite heart-broken by the news that I can't enter the territory of a Chauvinist country that wages war against its own people. The only painful thing is that the Lower Carpathian region forms a part of this terror state. So we have no choice but to put even more effort into gaining territorial autonomy for the Lower Carpathians."



Terrorists or patriots

"The Ukrainian counter-intelligence referred to the observers of the Eastern Ukrainian elections as pseudo-observers, who "support the terrorists." By the way, did you meet any terrorists?"



"This case shows clearly that the Ukrainian government can't even write its own communiqués, their terminology is determined by the Western forces controlling them. It's a Western practice to label everybody a terrorist if they refuse to surrender immediately and to succumb to invasion or tolerate the violation of their rights. The people I met in and around Donieck were all dedicated patriots and freedom fighters, who confronted the aggression of the Ukrainian central power."


"Is it true that you crossed the border illegally to enter the region coming from Moscow?"


"It depends on your point of view. It is a fact that I flew to Rostov through Moscow, and then we drove to Donieck. I am not aware of any law forbidding this. We arrived at a border, where a uniformed border guard asked for my passport and I gave it to him. Is it my fault that the border guard was not Ukrainian? What was I supposed to do, find one?"


"The Hungarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs disowned you, as they wrote: "The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade disapproves of any acts attempting to justify the legitimacy of the elections in question, regardless whether such attempts were made by a representative of a foreign or a domestic political force, organization or party." Then they added: "The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade of Hungary confirms its stance for an independent, democratic, stable, modern and prosperous Ukraine existing within its internationally recognized borders." How do you evaluate the ministry's communiqué? Interestingly enough, such disowning statement was not issued after some government-related public officials had been banned from the USA."



"The Hungarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs is so pathetic, I can't even be angry with them any more. They only do what is in their core. Ever since World War II, Hungary has always been subdued to foreign interests: it was controlled from Moscow for forty years, and has been controlled from Washington since the collapse of Communism. The ministry's communiqué clearly shows that the current activity of Hungarian diplomacy would not require more than two employees: one who handles the fax machine, and a linguist who translates the incoming orders from English to Hungarian. Anybody still talking about an "independent, democratic, stable, modern and prosperous" Ukraine, is not facing the reality, to put it mildly. Most of these features did not even characterize Ukraine a year ago, but they sound even comical in the current situation which is characterized by the exact opposite of these adjectives. As far as the legitimizing effect of election observation is concerned, let me make it clear that it is a fundamental misinterpretation of what election observation means. I can only form my opinion based on what I saw and experienced in nearly a dozen poll stations during the limited period of 12 hours that I spent there. I was talking to people, who were fighting their tears back to tell about their personal fate and plight, and who cast their ballots feeling the significance of the elections and hoping for a better future. It is a case of outrageous arrogance if someone is not willing to recognize the institution of national self-determination unless it is in compliance with his own geopolitical interests. These double standards are not to be tolerated, people's opinions must be respected!

Hungary’s Viktor Orban: Washington’s New Enemy Image

Hungary and its populist nationalist Prime Minister Viktor Orban have come into the cross-hairs of Washington’s political elites. His sin? Not buckling under to the often destructive diktats of the Brussels EU Commission; attempting to define a Hungarian national identity. But his cardinal sin is his deepening relationship with Russia and his defiance of Washington in signing an agreement with Gazprom for bringing the Russian South Stream gas pipeline into the EU via Hungary.



Orban has himself undergone a political journey since he was elected as Hungary’s second-youngest Prime Ministers in 1998. Back then he oversaw the entry of Hungary along with Poland and the Czech Republic into NATO over Russia’s protest, and into the EU. As Prime Minister during far more prosperous economic times in the EU, Orban cut taxes, abolished university tuition for qualified students, expanded maternity benefits, and attracted German industry with low-cost Hungarian labor. One of his American “advisers” then was James Denton, linked with the Color Revolution Washington NGO, Freedom House. Orban seemed the darling of Washington’s neo-cons. In 2001 he was given the neoconservative American Enterprise Institute’s Freedom Award.

But in 2010 after six years in the opposition, Orban returned, this time with a resounding majority for his Fidesz-Hungarian Civic Union Party, Fidesz for short. In fact Fidesz won a 68% supermajority in Parliament, giving it the necessary votes to alter the Constitution and pass new laws, which it did. Ironically, in a case of the pot calling the kettle black, the United States Obama Administration and the European Parliament for placing too much power in the hands of Fidesz. Orban was accused by Daniel Cohn-Bendit of the European Greens of making Hungary on the model of Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez. He was definitely not playing by the approved Brussels Rulebook for politically submissive EU politicians. Fidesz began to be demonized in EU media as the Hungarian version of United Russia and Orban as the Hungarian Putin. That was in 2012.

Now its getting alarming for the Atlanticists and their EU followers. Orban has defied EU demands to stop construction of Russia’s important South Stream gas pipeline.

Russia’s South Stream gas pipeline would guarantee EU gas together with German-Russian Nord Stream that could bypass the war in Ukraine something Washington bitterly opposes for obvious reasons

Last January Orban’s government announced a € 10 billion deal with the Russian state nuclear energy company to refurbish Hungary’s only nuclear power plant at Paks, originally built during the Soviet era with Russian technology.

That caused some attention in Washington. Similarly when Orban criticized the United States this past summer for failing to ultimately resolve the global financial crisis its banks and its lax regulation caused, and praised China, Turkey and Russia as better models. He declared in words not too different from what I have often used that Western democracies, “will probably be incapable of maintaining their global competitiveness in the upcoming decades and will instead be scaled down unless they are capable of changing themselves significantly.” In addition, Orban’s government managed to free Hungary from decades of devastating IMF bondage. In August 2013, the Hungarian Economic Ministry announced that it had, thanks to a “disciplined budget policy,” repaid the remaining €2.2 billion owed to the IMF. No more onerous IMF-forced state privatizations or conditionalities. The head of the Hungarian Central Bank then demanded the IMF close its offices in Budapest. In addition, echoing Iceland, the State Attorney General brought charges against the country’s three previous prime ministers because of the criminal amount of debt into which they plunged the nation. That’s a precedent that surely causes cold sweat in some capitals of the EU or Washington and Wall Street.

But the real alarm bells rang when Orban and his Fidesz party approved a go-ahead, together with neighboring Austria, of the South Stream Russian pipeline, ignoring EU claims it violated EU rules. Orben proclaimed at a meeting with Germany’s Horst Seehofer in Munich on November 6, “”Es lebe die österreichisch-ungarische Energiemonarchie” („The Austro-Hungarian Energy Monarchy Lives.“)

The US elites sounded the alarm immediately. The ultra-establishment New York Times ran a lead editorial, “Hungary’s Dangerous Slide.” They declared, “The government of Prime Minister Viktor Orban of Hungary is sliding toward authoritarianism and defying the fundamental values of the European Union — and getting away with it.”

The Times revealed the real cause of Washington and Wall Street alarm: “Hungary’s most recent expression of contempt for the European Union is its passage of a law on Monday that clears the way for Russia’s South Stream natural gas pipeline to traverse Hungary. The new law is in clear violation of the European Parliament’s call in September for member states to cancel South Stream, and of the economic sanctions against Russia imposed by the European Union and the United States after Russia’s actions in Ukraine. Instead of issuing tepid expressions of concern over antidemocratic policies, the European Union should be moving to sanction Hungary. Jean-Claude Juncker, the president of the European Commission, should exercise his power to force Mr. Navracsics to resign.” Tibor Navracsics, has just been named the new European Commissioner of Education, Culture, Youth and Sport, a post in Brussels that has arguably little to do with gas pipelines.

Next we can expect the National Endowment for Democracy and the usual US Government-backed NGO’s to find an excuse to launch mass opposition protests against Fidesz and Orban for his unforgivable crime of trying to make Hungary’s energy independent of the US-created insanity in Ukraine.

Hungary fuming after McCain calls PM Orban ‘neo-fascist dictator’

Published time: December 03, 2014 18:39 Get short URL



Hungary’s Foreign Ministry has summoned the US envoy after US Senator John McCain called Prime Minister Viktor Orban a “neo-fascist dictator.” Washington is incensed with Orban for seeking closer ties with Russia.

The US charge d’affaires, Andre Goodfriend, will be asked for an explanation for McCain’s comments.

"The Hungarian government ... rejects the words of Senator John McCain regarding the Hungarian prime minister and the relationship of Hungary and Russia," Levente Magyar, state secretary at the ministry, told national news agency MTI, Reuters reported.

Meanwhile the country’s foreign minister, Peter Szijjarto, said: "Hungarian citizens ... articulated a very clear opinion that everyone ought to respect,” referring to the victory of Orban’s center-right Fidesz party in parliamentary, European and local elections.


McCain’s comments came in a highly charged speech at the US Senate on Tuesday, where he hit out at President Barack Obama’s appointment of Hollywood producer Colleen Bell as the new US ambassador to Budapest.

"I am not against political appointees... I understand how the game is played, but ... [Hungary] ... is on the verge of ceding its sovereignty to a neo-fascist dictator getting in bed with Vladimir Putin, and we're going to send the producer of 'The Bold and The Beautiful' as the ambassador," he told the Senate, Reuters reported.

Bell’s appointment has been approved by the Senate.

Last month, AFP reported Orban as saying that Hungary's relations with Russia have become “entangled in geopolitical and military and security policy issues.” The PM said that the US was retaliating for Budapest's willingness to endorse the South Stream gas pipeline, as well as a deal that would see Russian firm Rosatom develop Hungary’s nuclear power.

Under a deal worth up to €10 billion, Rosatom will build a 2,000 megawatt addition to Hungary's state-owned nuclear power plant, MVM Paksi Atomeromu. Russia is Hungary’s largest trade partner outside of the EU, with exports worth $3.4 billion in 2013. It is highly dependent on Russian energy.

“We don’t want to get close to anyone, and we don’t intend to move away from anybody. We are not pursuing a pro-Russian policy but a pro-Hungarian policy,” Orban said, adding that expansion of the nuclear plant was the “only possible means” to lower dependence on external energy resources.

Orban has been highly critical of US and EU sanctions imposed on Russia for what he says is Moscow’s “perceived role” in the conflict in Ukraine. Speaking in August, he said the measures are like “shooting oneself in the foot.”

“The sanctions policy pursued by the West, that is, ourselves, a necessary consequence of which, has been what the Russians are doing, causes more harm to us than to Russia,” Reuters quoted Orban as saying on the radio.

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has blasted Brussels for undermining the Russia-led South Stream gas pipeline project.

MOSCOW, December 5 (Sputnik), Ekaterina Blinova — Viktor Orban, Hungary's Prime Minister blasted Brussels for ruining the Russia-led South Stream gas pipeline project.
"The EU has worked ceaselessly to undermine this programme," Viktor Orban said in an interview with public radio MR1 on Friday.

Moscow has cancelled the South Stream project, which was developed in order to provide European consumers with Russian natural gas across the Black Sea, amid to the stiff opposition from the EU.

For a long time, Viktor Orban has been supporting the lucrative deal with Russia, withstanding fierce criticism from his European counterparts in the process, and refusing to join the EU anti-Russian sanctions policy.

The cancellation of the $40 billion South Stream project has dealt a heavy blow to European natural gas users. Although it will not affect Orban's "grip on power" it has become a disappointment for the 51-year-old politician.

On December 1, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced that Russia was unable to continue with the South Stream gas pipeline project under the current conditions. The president cited the European Commission's position on the project and Bulgaria's failure to grant permission to proceed with the pipeline's construction as the major reasons behind the decision.

Again we see that the Eurocrats do not have the interests of the European people in mind whatsoever. Quite the opposite, actually. They wish to kill off all Europeans and replace them with a mud horde.

Hungary is a victim of Euro-Atlantism



Hungary has become a victim of the subservient Euro-Atlantism of the past two and a half decades. At least this is what the situation after the drop of the South Stream project seems to show according to Jobbik MP Márton Gyöngyösi. We interviewed him about Putin's decision and its consequences.

Self-destructive European elite

As reported, Putin blamed the European Union for not building the South Stream. Was Western Europe the real obstacle in the project's way or did Moscow just name a scapegoat and had other reasons for changing its mind? We asked Jobbik MP Márton Gyöngyösi, the vice chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Hungarian Parliament to throw light on the issue.

In our era, energy supply has become a factor in the geostrategic struggle fought between the USA and Russia. "It is an unfortunate fact that the primary victim of this geopolitical battle is Europe and especially Hungary." Gyöngyösi pointed out in his response.

The MP says Europe has been under US pressure to remain in the trap of the illusory Nabucco project. As he puts it, the Nabucco pipeline concept was completely unrealistic, neither the amount of gas needed for the return of investment, nor the essential funds for project implementation had ever been available. Not to mention that the pipeline was supposed to go through several crisis areas in the world. He adds that, in spite of the above, the self-destructive European elite (including the Hungarian Fidesz-related and socialist-liberal political elite) that suffers from the incurable disease of Atlantism, has always supported the implementation of the project until recently. He believes that, unlike Nabucco, the South Stream would have been a feasible, profitable project and would have brought Russian gas realistically close to Europe. However, the South Stream has become a victim of political arm-twisting.

Jobbik's MP voices his opinion that President Putin is right when he says that the countries blocking the South Stream were not acting in a sovereign manner, they were under pressure from Washington and Brussels. Then he adds that, since Europe is not independent but is a US colony, we can state that only US interests were enforced eventually. He points out that it wasn't the first time Bulgaria backed out of the South Stream project, because they had already done so in 2009, only to return to the negotiations in 2010.

He thinks it's tragic how Europe is acting against its own interests and he adds that Europe seems to be the enemy of its own sovereignty and independence when it succumbs to the American pressure and urges trade and economic sanctions against Russia, or rattles its sabres to provoke Moscow as the outpost of NATO, an organization exclusively representing US military interests, and when it gives up the security of its own energy supply by torpedoing the only viable option of gas supply contracts available at the moment.

The victim of subservient Euro-Atlantism

We also asked him how the Russian decision may impact Hungary's "opening to the East" policy, which we associated with Orbán's ideas as well as Jobbik's strategic concepts.

"I am half-sad, half-happy about it." responds Márton Gyöngyösi, who believes that Europe's self-destructive hopelessness seems devastating. Anyone who believes that the US can supply the EU's 500 million people by shipping liquid, tanked LNG gas across the Atlantic Ocean, has lost his contact with reality, to say the least. "Therefore it's hard to understand the motivations of Western liberal opinion-shapers and their Hungarian sidekicks who have been rejoicing over the fall of the South Stream since yesterday." he adds. He says it's not Russia's fall but Europe's, including Hungary.

"When cancelling the South Stream project, Putin also announced, with Turkish President Erdogan by his side during his visit to Ankara, that Russia would focus on the performance of its gas contract with China as well as on other southbound gas supply lines, and would give priority to the Blue Stream in the future." Gyöngyösi points out. Which is a clear indication that Russia is not losing market, it is gaining. In the MP's view, Turkey is clearly the greatest winner of this decision, since the country has gained a monopolistic status in terms of all East-to-West gas supply projects. By the way, Turkey has also gained a lot from the anti-Russia boycott of the West, successfully utilizing the opportunities lying in the Russia-EU war of sanctions. The country gained a significant market share without any effort. In Gyöngyösi's view, the teaming-up of the two great rivals, Turkey and Russia is good news in the sense that the alliance of two great Eastern powers greatly reduces the chances of the US that works on developing a monopolar world order.

Consequently, it offers an excellent, long-term opportunity for Hungary provided that there is a counterbalance against a reckless Western offensive. However, he also adds that Hungary's short-term prospects are far from bright. As he says, Hungary has become a victim of two and a half decades of subservient Euro-Atlantism. Orbán's impotence is also spectacular, but he at least seems to have realized the gravity of the situation and began a balancing act on a rope. On the other hand, in the Jobbik MP's opinion, the chances of Hungary and the "Eastern opening" policy are fundamentally undermined by the EU's economic, political and energy war on Russia, while NATO is posing a threat to European peace by its sabre-rattling.

Gyöngyösi says that the situation clearly shows the price of inconsistency and a diplomacy specialized in a subservient kowtowing to foreign interests. At present, the Eastern opening policy is the only one with any realistic chance for success, and Hungarian diplomacy must do its best to increase the country's room for maneuvering against the West: we must regain our political, economic, energy-related and even military sovereignty, he says, since we are currently subordinated to foreign interests, which comes at a humongous price already, not to mention the unforeseeable consequences in the future.

Fidesz support continues dropping, Jobbik strengthens

Support for governing Fidesz continued to wane in the past weeks while radical nationalist Jobbik has added to its camp, a recent poll by Ipsos, released on Thursday, showed.

Among all voters Fidesz lost 5 percentage points to stand at 25 percent while Jobbik gained one point to 14 percent, according to the poll conducted in early December. The opposition Socialists came third with 11 percent, unchanged from November. Green party LMP lost one point to stand at 3 percent while leftist Democratic Coalition (DK) added one point to stand also at 3 percent. Support for the Egyutt (Together) party went down one point to 1 percent, the poll showed.

Among decided voters, support for Fidesz dropped three points to 45 percent, whereas it went up three points for Jobbik to 24 percent. The Socialists in this group gained three points to stand at 18 percent, LMP stood at 5 percent, DK at 4 percent and Egyutt at 1 percent.

In number terms Fidesz has lost altogether 800,000 supporters over the last two months, the pollster said. Support for the governing party weakened in October among core supporters including mainly young people, middle-aged and middle-class voters, and in smaller towns. Voters moving away from the party last month were in lower social groups, the elderly and villagers, Ipsos said.

The proportion of voters who keep their distance from political parties further increased from 30 percent in October to 35 percent in November and 39 percent in December, it said.

Jobbik is concerned about the policies of the U.S. pointing towards the deployment of nuclear weapons

Mon, 12/15/2014





Jobbik expresses its concern and condemns the aggressive and menacing policies of the United States of America, designed to re-deploy the once withdrawn nuclear weapons in Europe.

Last week, the Armed Services and the Foreign Affairs Committees of the US Congress held a joint session, during which the under-secretary of defense and high-ranking officers were discussing and considering the re-deployment of cruise missiles with nuclear warheads in case Russia refuses to return to the treaty reducing the number of such weapons. As is known, the reason for Russia's abandoning the treaty was the earlier menacing American armament in Central Europe. Currently, the USA keeps 180-200 nuclear weapons in five countries of our continent.

The NATO summit held in Bristol this September, the irresponsible, sabre-rattling political behaviour of certain members of the alliance as well as the current armament plans of the United States all point to the escalation of the existing opposition and pose a threat of a new armed conflict. Europe, including Hungary, can only be a loser if such a conflict breaks out.

Jobbik believes that there are no such obligations arising from the NATO contracts that could drift any NATO member state into an armed clash in conflict with the particular state's own interests. Such irresponsible commitments of the Hungarian government as the participation in several international NATO missions that were contrary to our interests, or the Hungarian defence of the airspace of the Baltic States cannot be justified by our NATO membership, they are merely the signs of the irresponsible and subservient attitude of the Hungarian government.

In the midst of the current Ukrainian crisis, Hungarian diplomacy may have one and only goal in terms of national interest: to alleviate the increasingly sharp conflict between the West and Russia, and do its best to prevent Hungary from drifting into a conflict driven by the geopolitical interests of the West. In the past century, our country has been the battlefield of geopolitical clashes between other powers several times, suffering irreparable damage the deep effects of which still linger on. Jobbik calls upon the Hungarian government to refrain from participating in any provocative actions on the pretext of meeting the presumed obligations arising from our NATO membership, as well as to do all possible diplomatic efforts to promote peace.

The leader of the Hungarian "Jobbik" party was banned from entering Ukraine

25 December 2014 16:19 33 0

One of the leaders of the Hungarian radical party "Jobbik" Istvan Sawai was banned from entering Ukraine for five years.

This was reported by the Mukachevo.net citing the party site alfahir.hu.

Sawai said the decision of the Ukrainian government has no reason and justification. After all, it concerns the restriction of his personal life as his wife is from Transcarpathia, she is a local Hungarian and a citizen of Ukraine.

A similar fate befell another representative of "Jobbik" - Lorant Gegedush. The latter found out that only when trying to cross the border. However, the politician received no explanations on the matter.

Previously, several party members, including Sawai, were banned from entering Romania for a period of one year.

Recall that Sawai has repeatedly stated that the aim of the "Jobbik" party is the creation of Rusyn-Hungarian autonomy in Transcarpathia. The party representatives were present as official observers at the "referendum" in Crimea and "elections" in the self-proclaimed republics in the Donbas.

János Lázár: We want to remain Hungarians!

DECEMBER 22, 2014 BY RICHARD FIELD



Translation of interview with Hungarian Chancellor János Lázár appearing in the 22 December 2014 issue of pro-government Magyar Hírlap under the title “Lázár János: Dolgozni kell, nem szabad elbizonytalanodni”. (“János Lázár: One must work, not entertain doubts”).

How do you assess the performamce of the Information Authority (IH), more commonly known as Hungarian foreign intelligence?

The Prime Minister stated in 2010 that Hungarian intelligence is the most important task in protecting our national independence. A condition of the country’s sovereignty is decreasing our financial and energy independence as soon as possible. The task of every Hungarian secret service is strengthening the country, and towards this goal increasing our self-determination. The Prime Minister brought the collection of intelligence under the Office of the Prime Minister two years ago. IH operations can work even more efficiently now that European matters have been transferred to us from the foreign ministry.

There are economic interest groups— the bank, tobacco, energy and multinational company lobbies—which, for example, are trying to use the European Commission to advance their economic interests. Naturally, Hungary does not spy on its allies but it is better to be afraid than to panic. The task of intelligence was changed at the time of the financial crisis so that it helps the government’s work, not only with collecting information but with financial and money market analysis as well. We expect precise information rather than conspiracy theories from our intelligence agents.

In a country with a high ratio of state and household foreign exchange debt, we are more vulnerable to, and dependent on, foreign interests. It is no surprise that in the past few years we have faced these kinds of attacks intended to undermine the government. My job is to direct the attention of the intelligence service colleagues to the performance of these tasks. For this the government provides the necessary material and human resources. I hope the world view of those in service has also changed, thereby significantly decreasing Russian or western innervation (sic), and finally increases the commitment to our country’s independence.

Unfortunately, the American wire tapping and spying scandals of the past few years have made it clear that our allies do not respect our partners, and that there are no inhibitions or limits. The WikiLeaks documents indicate that America also collects information about the personal lives of leading politicians in our country as well.

What stands behind the attempt to exert influence over Hungary?

America’s interests are not the same as Hungary’s. The United States does not take into consideration the traditions of the region, the country’s traditions. Unfortunately, they don’t want to understand Central European history and national characteristics. Naturally, there exist influential United States interest groups as well with which we do not agree on matters of fundamental questions of values. This world violently, and with money, spreads its convictions such as disregard for the fact that, irrespective of their political proclivities, two-thirds of Hungarians understand a family to refer to the relationship between a man and a woman, and give them the right to raise children.

What is the stronger viewpoint for the Americans, exercising pressure for political or economic interests?

Both. In the future America will change from being an importer to being an exporter of gas thanks to the mining of shale gas, for which it must create a market. We can discuss this, but I am certain that the use of power politics is not a suitable method for securing markets. Our point of view is unequivocal: Hungary is not for sale. Neither for the Russians nor for the Americans. We will purchase energy from whoever sells it cheaply and guarantees that it arrives to use as well.

However, we are a small market. It is not sure that this is the only reason we became an important terrain to the United States.

Unfortunately, there is no economic growth in the European Union, and for this reason the region of Central Europe has become more valuable. Our area has economic potential, from here it is possible to strengthen the western part of the continent as well. A warlike situation has developed between the United States and Russia, and the Americans want to create a new iron curtain on Russia’s border. We are starting from the basic thesis formulated by German chancellor Helmut Kohl and French president Francois Mitterrand: Europe needs the Russians. The war and Russia’s economic collapse has unforeseeable consequences for Europe and Hungary. We are going to pay a high price for it. In the midst of the Russian-Ukrainian crisis we should not forget either that more than 100,000 Hungarians are living in Karpátalja (Carpatho-Ukraine), a substantial number of which are Hungarian citizens as well. The most important thing for the government is to protect them as well.

Do you also believe that the Americans are behind the Autumn demonstrations?

The demonstrations are proof that the right to the freedom of expression exists in Hungary. The demonstrations are as though the American embassy had assumed the role of the Hungarian political opposition. It might appear to some as though they gave up on the opposition parties ever winning the confidence of the Hungarians, and for this reason they have risen to the task of leading the dissatisfied. They express opinions on matters not customary for diplomats. They want to tell us how to behave, what to think about the world. And they tell us how we should live. The credibility of the United States has been called into question by the fact that the American spokesman André Goodfriend is either unable or unwilling to tell public opinion why six Hungarian citizens were banned from entering the United States. Americans should respect Hungary’s thousand-year history, traditions, which cannot be changed through the use of outside force, pressure. Hungarians do not want to be Americans, Germans or Russians. We want to remain Hungarians!

But now once again we are forced into a swing policy. How can this be continued successfully?

The struggle to preserve our identity and independence has characterized our history. Once again we find ourselves facing such a situation. I am convinced that the Hungarian opposition parties will not betray our country and assist the Americans in their efforts. It is not by chance that the American embassy has taken politics to the street, and embolden the organizers and participants.

Goodfriend aside, didn’t the government err in a number of issues, thereby giving birth to social discontent?

After the local elections in October the period of governance started. We never claimed to be infallible, or that we never make mistakes. We received a two-thirds mandate from the voters to build an independent, strong Hungary, and not break ranks under the pressure of domestic or international interests.

Fidesz is living high off the hog (urizál), and some of the main criticism has concerned you.

It is obvious that young members of Fidesz living high off the hog is a well-constructed political campaign on the part of the opposition and the press. They want to create an image of us as the party of the rich and which only supports the rich. That’s a lie! We introduced the free meals at kindergarten. We were the ones who offered government subsidies to those buying used flats, who continuously raise the minimum wage, who drastically decreased household utility costs, who increased the wages of teachers, and executed an increase in salaries of health and law enforcement workers.

As a result of our economic policies, inflation has disappeared, which the left-wing politicians and intellectuals always said was a tax on the poor. In addition to all this, we are helping the most vulnerable social strata, those with FX loans: They will see the first half of 2015 that their monthly payments decrease 25 percent or 30 percent. And we’re the party of the rich? Our steps have created opportunities for social inclusion for the poorest.

But in spite of everything it seems that within your own party people are upset that you bought a flat for your young son, or that you have a watch costing many hundreds of thousands of forints.

I hope they don’t want to say that who saves for his children’s future is acting like a lord. I know there are many who are not able to do this, and that is why I am working, so that they get an opportunity for this. At the same time in my city the normal order of life is that people support their children to the best of their ability, and try to provide for their future. In a civil society this cannot be cause for shame but rather virtue. Let’s see things clearly. Today there is a political campaign afoot built on jealousy organized by the opposition that involves accusing everyone of corruption and living high off the hog, especially the younger politicians who are in power. They are doing that with me, those who for the past 25 years look down on Hungarian reality from the homes in the hills of Buda, while I had to struggle on two occasions to win the confidence of a poor provincial part of the country. How can anyone imagine that I could have won the confidence of those living in poverty and those in need of help if I considered myself exception or looked down on them? In politics there can only be one answer to this accusation, this campaign to discredit us, this character assassination: total unity within Fidesz.

What can you do against the fall in your popularity?

Decisions come with disputes and consequences. The current government won’t let up even though it has harmed the interest of a good many groups. The interest groups behind the press use journalists to mess with the people. That is what is happening at RTL Klub, whose owner, the German Bertelsmann group, suffered a serious financial loss as a result of the advertising tax. This group includes a number of oligarchs as well who are not able to access the state’s resources, and that is why they dictate magical questions to journalists who are dependent on them for their existence. Let’s not forget either that from American money Romanian investigative journalists are training the colleagues of certain internet newspapers, while I know, and this is just part of the legend, it is as though this, too, is happening within the framework of the American operation.

The only question is whether the loss in popularity becomes a tendency, a continuous fall, or whether we’re talking about a wave which happens to be standing at the bottom right now.

We musn’t become uncertain. We need to work! If Viktor Orbán had become uncertain in 2011-12-13, then we would not have won the election in 2014. Then there were moments when Fidesz was even less popular than it currently is. We didn’t wet ourselves and we didn’t hide. We waded into the fight, picked up the glove, and in the end we won. Winning back trust after losing popularity means even more work now than before. We had to struggle for three years for the country, which was threatened by financial collapse. Now, economically speaking we have risen ourselves up to be among the three best-performing countries in the EU. There is no western analysis that does not acknowledge our economic results, we, however, fall into the mistake of entertaining doubts. There is no reason for this. We are on a good path. We don’t have to be afraid. We have to work!

The decrease in household utility costs was the Fidesz panacea during the first cycle. What is it you want to win over voters with now?

We continue to step in the direction of decreasing the cost of utility to the economy and the state. We are decreasing court fees and we want to provide more services, all of this in a transparent manner. We will do everything so that economic actors, especially industry, can obtain cheap electricity. The government’s goal is for us to be the strongest country in the region. In the interest of improving economic competitiveness we are going to reform technical training, improve the educational system and modernize the country. European Union taxpayers are providing enormous material support for this. A strong state is needed. A decrease in bureaucracy on the other hand increases competitiveness. There will be more debates on this, but an efficient, cheap and well-functioning state is worth a political fight.

How many positions will be eliminated over the course of decreasing bureaucracy?

There are 198 prefectures (járás) in the country. By the end of 2015 we will create 260 government windows. The prefecture structure works well, it is close to the people. By contrast 925,000 people work in state administration, while at the same time four million pay taxes. Three million taxpayers maintain the current bureaucracy. Furthermore, this is a reverse pyramid: the higher we go, the more workers there are. There are two bosses for every worker who meets with citizens and customers. This is unacceptable. Today for example there are 3,500 directors for 26,000 government office employees. This cannot be called reasonable. For this reason there is no point in talking about how many should be dismissed, because there are areas that need to be downsized and there are ones where it is necessary to hire people. It is the job of the state to serve the people, which is why we need to deal with matters that interest the voters, and which improves the quality of their lives, like strengthening the system of local practitioners, or preventative medicine. Or whether for social security somebody who regularly goes for a screening test represents the same risk as someone who does not. How can the state motivate someone to deal with sickness through prevention and preliminary control? I could cite examples of public transportation as well for which we need to use our time, energy and trust.

When will the restructuring of public transportation start? What changes should travelers expect?

We want to organize state services on the level of prefectures, and in this way we are modifying the health education centers. Many governments have undertaken the reform of health, education and social systems, but no one has ever reconciled this with a transportation map of Hungary. We would like to achieve when talking about health reform that we also discuss how patients get to a given hospital. There are places where it is necessary to reorganize the trains and the bus services, but there are also parts of the country where it is not possible to use public transportation, where it is only possible to get to a treatment center by car. We have to change the practice by which Volán (the national bus company) has ignored the needs of the traveling public for years when preparing schedules. We need to organize a unified, country-public transportation system in which train and bus schedules are harmonized. It is outrageous that twenty-five years after the system change there are still unresolved issues.

It is as though you are not speaking as a minister but still as a mayor.

If you you see it like that, then that is a compliment. The Prime Minister expects me to deal with these matters. I do this with the enthusiasm and vehemence characteristic of me as a mayor. I look for solutions because I learned over the past 15 years that you can neither govern a society without people nor against people. My style is too fast or too determined for some people. I am convinced that it is only possible to serve the country’s interest with this kind of purposeful politics and a lot of work.

Quote:
Ukraine should abandon its hypocritical and anti-Hungarian policy




"Jobbik believes the Ukrainian government has reached the peak of hypocrisy through Minister of Foreign Affairs Pavlo Kimkin's statement made in the Lower Carpathians yesterday, according to which the Ukrainian state will punish Ukrainian citizens who have passports of other countries as well, and will also implement joint customs control at the Ukrainian-Hungarian border to prevent any alleged misuse." stated Márton Gyöngyösi, Jobbik's vice president and vice chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Hungarian National Assembly in his press release on Tuesday.

This is an outrageous measure from a government that got into power through a coup d'état orchestrated by Western secret services and which abounds with members that have multiple citizenships.

It is well-known that Ukrainian Finance Minister Natalia Ann Yareshko has US, Minister of Trade Aivaras Abromavicius has Lithuanian while Minister of Health Alexander Kvitashvili has Georgian passport in addition to their Ukrainian citizenships hastily granted before their appointment to their current posts. Besides, individuals with double citizenships were also appointed to the highest posts in the administration of interior affairs. State Secretary of the Ministry of Interior Affairs Eka Zguladze has Georgian, Ronald W. Glensor, a leader of the Ukrainian police has US citizenship, while Zurab Adeishvili, the chairman of the Ukrainian anti-corruption committee is a dual citizen of Georgia and Ukraine. It is also well-known that Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseni Yatseniuk, Kiev Mayor Vitali Klitscko and the president of the Ukrainian National Bank, Valeria Gontareva have dual citizenships, too.

In Jobbik's view, the statements made by Foreign Minister Klimkin seem to have a special significance due to the location in the Lower Carpathians and the issue of a joint customs control with the Hungarian authorities. "In such context, it's hard to interpret these statements in any other way than as an open threat against the Hungarian community in the Lower Carpathians, assisted and approved by the Hungarian government." added the MP.

As he wrote: "Jobbik calls upon the Ukrainian government to abandon this hypocrisy and to stop demanding others to meet such regulations that its own ministers violate, as well as to discontinue intimidating the Hungarian community in the Lower Carpathians." Jobbik also calls upon the Hungarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs to reveal what kind of pact and under what pressure it made with the Ukrainian power at the expense of the Hungarian community in the Lower Carpathians, as well as to take a firm stance to defend the rights of its own citizens.


They welcome Putin's visit

"In Jobbik's view, the summit of Hungary's and Russia's leaders is important and useful, since the party has always been supporting the policy of opening to the East and considers Russia as a strategic partner in economic, energy-related, political and cultural issues as well." stated Márton Gyöngyösi, the deputy leader of Jobbik's parliamentary group in his press release on Tuesday.

In the party's opinion, the Ukrainian crisis makes bilateral geostrategic discussions even more important. With regard to these discussions, the Hungarian government should be subject to criticism for its exclusive self-determination as a member of the Western alliance system, since the country should rather develop an individual standpoint due to the issue of the Hungarian community in the Lower Carpathians.



Peace has the priority


The patriotic party considers peace and neutrality as the fundamental and most important interest of Hungary as well as the only manageable way to avoid another world war." added Márton Gyöngyösi in his press release.

"Just as the lift of the anti-Russia sanctions should be the common interest of the European states and Hungary." he commented.

The enhancement of the Paks Nuclear Plant, the issue of the Southern Stream as well as our commercial and economic interests all require us to prevent Hungary-Russia relations from deteriorating. Jobbik also warns the leftist political parties to show self-restraint, on account of their hysteria-mongering today about Putin's potential visit to Hungary.

The Tuesday issue of daily newspaper "Népszava", referring to information received from several independent sources, wrote that Vladimir Putin was supposed to visit Budapest in March.


Press release:

Jobbik believes the Ukrainian government has reached the peak of hypocrisy through Minister of Foreign Affairs Pavlo Kimkin's statement made in the Lower Carpathians yesterday, according to which the Ukrainian state will punish Ukrainian citizens who have passports of other countries as well, and will also implement joint customs control at the Ukrainian-Hungarian border to prevent any alleged misuse. This is an outrageous measure from a government that got into power through a coup d'état orchestrated by Western secret services and which abounds with members that have multiple citizenships. It is well-known that Ukrainian Finance Minister Natalia Ann Yareshko has US, Minister of Trade Aivaras Abromavicius has Lithuanian while Minister of Health Alexander Kvitashvili has Georgian passport in addition to their Ukrainian citizenships hastily granted before their appointment to their current posts. Besides, individuals with double citizenships were also appointed to the highest posts in the administration of interior affairs. State Secretary of the Ministry of Interior Affairs Eka Zguladze has Georgian, Ronald W. Glensor, a leader of the Ukrainian police has US citizenship, while Zurab Adeishvili, the chairman of the Ukrainian anti-corruption committee is a dual citizen of Georgia and Ukraine. It is also well-known that Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseni Yatseniuk, Kiev Mayor Vitali Klitscko and the president of the Ukrainian National Bank, Valeria Gontareva have dual citizenships, too.

The statements made by Foreign Minister Klimkin seem to have a special significance due to the location in the Lower Carpathians and the issue of a joint customs control with the Hungarian authorities. In such context, it's hard to interpret these statements in any other way than as an open threat against the Hungarian community in the Lower Carpathians, assisted and approved by the Hungarian government.

Jobbik calls upon the Ukrainian government to abandon this hypocrisy and to stop demanding others to meet such regulations that its own ministers violate, as well as to discontinue intimidating the Hungarian community in the Lower Carpathians. Jobbik calls upon the Hungarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs to reveal what kind of pact and under what pressure it made with the Ukrainian power at the expense of the Hungarian community in the Lower Carpathians, as well as to take a firm stance to defend the rights of its own citizens.

Jobbik condemns the drafting of ethnic Hungarian men for military service

Jobbik Movement for a Better Hungary is concerned to receive news of a new military mobilization wave as of January 20, in the Lower Carpathian region of Ukraine. It means that ethnic Hungarian men may be drafted to the Ukrainian army to fight for Kiev's puppet government that serves the interests of Atlantic powers.

Jobbik also finds the statement made by the ethnic Hungarian member of the Ukrainian Parliament astounding. The MP expressed his hope that the drafting of ethnic Hungarians would not be disproportionate compared to their rate in the population. Knowing the ethnic proportions in the Lower Carpathian region and the situation of the Ukrainian government, we consider this statement nonsensical. Will it satisfy László Brenzovics, who has sworn an oath to represent the Hungarian community in the Lower Carpathians (including the Beregszász/Beregovo district where the rate of Hungarians is 76 per cent), if the proportion of the Hungarian soldiers deployed to the Eastern Ukrainian front does not exceed 76 per cent? Jobbik calls László Brenzovics to do his best for a firm representation of the Hungarian interests and employ any means necessary to prevent them from drafting. Jobbik also expects the Hungarian government to actively contribute to the protection of the Hungarian community in the Lower Carpathians.

Mini-Maidan Picks Up Steam in Budapest

written by daniel mcadams
monday february 2, 2015

Hungarians are supposed to be good at math. After all, the father of the hydrogen bomb, the inventor of the Rubik's Cube, and a whole lot of really brilliant mathematicians are all Hungarian. Indeed mathematics and the arts derived from it are seemingly endemic to the Hungarian DNA -- have a look at all the Hungarian chess masters.

However when it comes to the science of regime change, mathematics can most often be an impediment rather than an advantage.

For example, a rally which took place over the weekend -- the latest attempt to overthrow the democratically-elected government in Hungary -- drew only an estimated 3,000 protesters.

Nevertheless, rally organizer Balazs Gulyas is convinced that 3,000 constitutes an absolute majority in a country of ten million people. Said Gulyas, a former politician of the opposition Hungarian Socialist (formerly Communist) Party, "We want to show that the country is not equal to Orban, that the majority does not support his policies going closer to Vladimir Putin."

In the seemingly non-mathematical mind of Gulyas, 3,000 is a majority in 10 million.

It seems comical, but we must recall that the protests that overthrew the similarly democratically-elected government of Ukraine last year also attracted a very small minority of actual voters -- though they claimed to speak for "the people."

In both cases the goals were identical: Isolate and overthrow a government seen by some as drifting from US/EU satellite status to a more independent foreign policy that is increasingly skeptical of western moves to isolate Russia, an important trading partner.

In these efforts, the US embassy has played a significant role. In Ukraine we all recall the active role played by the US ambassador Geoffrey Pyatt and US assistant secretary of state Victoria Nuland in fomenting the unrest and planning who takes positions of power when the smoke clears.

In Budapest that role is played by deputy chief of mission Andre Goodfriend, who is a staple at the several recent rounds of anti-government protests held on the streets of Budapest. Last October, when tens of thousands of Hungarians took to the streets to protest what they believed was a tax on Internet users, Goodfriend was there in their midst, walking in solidarity with those who called for the overthrow of the elected government. As pro-Socialist blogger Eva Balogh wrote approvingly of the October protest:

Quote:
[T]he American chargé d’affaires, André Goodfriend, seemed to be very much with it as he stood in the crowd with a backpack. As he said in one of his many recent interviews, he spends a great deal of time on the streets of Budapest. A planned demonstration on the internet tax was certainly something he thought he ought to see in person. I’m also sure that he has the State Department’s backing for both his appearances at demonstrations and his presence on Twitter.
The US embassy and its allies among the opposition parties in Hungary cannot tolerate Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban's deviationism from the standard west line that Russia is headed by a reincarnated czar who seeks to remake the Soviet Union and therefore must be isolated and sanctioned even if it means a crippling recession in the Euro-zone.

Orban, like his colleagues in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Austria, and most recently Greece, do not see the sense in following the Wolfowitz Doctrine of the US neocons if it means deepening the economic crisis in EU-land.

Goodfriend has been extremely active in defending the western government-funded "NGOs" that seek to launder foreign government money to help organize a political opposition to challenge the elected government in Hungary. Recently Goodfriend criticized the state of "civil society" in Hungary, reflecting his government's disapproval of the Hungarian government's decision to audit some foreign government funded NGOs operating in Hungary.

This week's protests were organized on the pretext of appealing to the visiting Angela Merkel to isolate and refuse to meet with their prime minister, Viktor Orban. They again openly called for the overthrow of their government, holding signs that stated, "Spring comes – Orban goes."

In the world of regime change and color revolutions, a tiny percent of the population can be seen by the US and its allies to speak for "the people." In the end, this funny math could be accepted as the majority in the US and could result in the ouster of a troublesome, independently-minded Viktor Orban despite his wide popularity and solid democratic mandate.

Hungary's far-right Jobbik party sends official to live with Roma to atone for racist comments

Published February 09, 2015

BUDAPEST, Hungary – Hungary's far-right Jobbik party says it has ordered one of its politicians to spend three days with a Roma member of the party to atone for racist comments made in 2011 and 2013.

Jobbik president Gabor Vona said Monday he gave the order to Janos Kotel because of earlier comments on Facebook in which he said, for example, that he would buy weapons to kill Roma.

Vona says Kotel's comments are "unacceptable" and "most strenuously rejected" by Jobbik though they were made while Kotel was a member of an unarmed citizen patrol at a time of racial tensions in eastern Hungary.

Jobbik politicians have often made racist comments, even in parliament.

Kotel easily defeated a candidate from the governing Fidesz party in a Sunday by-election for city councilor in Mezotur.

Hungarians protest as Putin meets Orban




Quote:
Some 2,000 people have marched through the Hungarian capital, Budapest, ahead of talks between Prime Minister Viktor Orban and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Tuesday's visit is Mr Putin's first to an EU leader since June 2014.

Hungary wants to negotiate a new agreement for Russian gas supplies.

Russia has been largely shunned by EU member states because of the conflict in eastern Ukraine, although it denies accusations of fomenting the violence.

Protesters rallied in Budapest on Monday night carrying banners saying "Putin No! Europe Yes!".
