Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto expressed concern that the United States will try to interfere in next year's general elections. The aim is to see the current president Viktor Orban PM replaced by opposition statesman Peter Marki-Zay, who is more ideologically aligned with the Biden administration.

In an interview with the Financial Times, Szijjarto said, “We don't live on the moon. We live in Central Europe. Of course, there will be attempts … we have already detected preparations. " He also said: "I want to reassure the Hungarians that all the institutions involved are doing their job to fend off attempts at outside interference in the elections."

It is not the first time that the Biden administration has tried to harm the Hungarian leader, despite his country being a loyal NATO partner and one of Israel's best allies. Despite this pro-Western alignment, Hungary is the only European country not to have been invited by Biden to the "Summit for Democracy", the pro-Western happening, where human rights and political champions such as Pakistan have been invited. , Iraq, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Angola. Only Hungary, among the Western countries, was left out.

For heaven's sake, a summit in which "leaders of government, civil society and the private sector will meet to set out a positive agenda for democratic renewal and to address the greatest threats to today's democracies through collective action", will not than to generate yet another wave of useless, and anti-liberal, politically correct, or wokeism, to use English-speaking terms. A Summit on nothing, but in any case it is a sort of meeting of the "Friends of Biden" club from which Hungary is excluded.

Orban's real faults in Biden's eyes are not linked to democracy, but to very different factors:

  • however, Hungary tries to have good relations with Russia and China, despite being clearly on the side of NATO;
  • Hungary pursues objectives linked to the family and the safeguarding of national culture, stuff that in the “Gender fluid” and pro immigrationist world is inconceivable.

Hungary then opposes the current leadership of Brussels, the forced integration of the EU, the creation of a European toy army, useless for security, but useful for destroying the individuality of the individual states, which in any case are the true expression of democracy. The higher one climbs in the hierarchy of power, the lower the power of popular representation, the greater the weight of bureaucracy, lobbies and elites, that is, of everything that is not democracy. The irony is being accused of NOT being democratic.

It is unknown who will win the next elections in Hungary, but a small country can mark a turn in one direction or another.
