Igazából tudtam, hogy váltanom kellene országot
Ehelyett ott rohadtam szinte minden magyar tévécsatornánál.
Hungary is at risk of becoming a constitutional dictatorship and a pariah in the West.
„With the fall of Hungary's Western-style, pluralistic democracy, the time is right for the United States to reinstate Radio Free Europe's Hungarian-language broadcasts. Hungarian would then join 28 other languages in which Radio Free Europe transmits its programs on radio stations in countries of the former Soviet Union, the Middle East, South Asia and the Balkans. The president of one of these countries told one of us last year that he begins every morning by listening to RFE's summary of the news.
While Hungary is a member of both the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and the European Union, it is at risk of becoming a constitutional dictatorship and a pariah in the West. Its hastily adopted new constitution has no meaningful provisions for checks and balances. All branches of government and all independent institutions, including the judiciary, are controlled by Orban and his party for nine years with automatic renewal for many more similar terms.
Since his election in 2010, Orban has followed a confrontational, nationalist foreign policy vis-a-vis the West, which stands in stark contrast to his approach to the authoritarians in Russia and, especially, China. He speaks kindly of »eastern winds« while predicting the »decline of the West.« He deploys statist yet utterly unpredictable economic policies, precipitating a downgrading of the Hungarian economy to junk status by all three major credit agencies. Finally, Orban is pursuing a ferocious cultural war calculated to court the supporters of Jobbik, an anti-Romany, anti-Semitic far-right party.”
