Notable quotes

“I can say that when this court ruling was made, when the whole case started, there was a completely different legal environment in EU law, and an even more different mood in Europe. Tomorrow morning at 9:00 there will be a coordination of member states advocating for stricter, more coordinated, more decisive action against illegal migration. It's like the Friends of Cohesion, but here I coordinate with member states ”

“We stand by the merit-based, performance-based accession process, as I have said before. There cannot be two kinds of accession procedures. The Union cannot do this to the Western Balkan countries, who have been working for years, for many years, to open chapters, to close chapters, and then bypass them by giving other member states a different kind of accession or enlargement process. That would not be honest, it wo”

“We agreed on the release of 16.2 billion euros. I say this to our compatriots, even at the current strengthening forint exchange rate this is about 6,000 billion forints. This is 13% of the Hungarian annual budget, just to give a sense of the magnitude. Of course, one of our eyes is crying and the other is laughing, because it is very sad that what the European Commission and the President asked for in the interest o”

“The real reason why the European institutions, the European Union, was not in a position to give this many thousands of billions of forints was corruption. It was a level of corruption that was unimaginable for a long time in the European Union and in Hungary too. It was unimaginable that a prime minister and his family would be directly connected to corruption worth hundreds of billions or thousands of billions of f”

“Based on today's meeting, 2 billion euros have been unlocked. And this is, and I say this to the Hungarian people, even with the better exchange rates that we're having in Hungary right now, it's about 6,000 billion forints, which is 13% of the country's budget. Just so you get a feel for what sort of monies we're talking about. Obviously not everything is very happy because what's sad is that what Europe and what th”

“One of our most important commitments during the campaigns was that we're going to bring back, we're going to unlock all those thousands of billions of Hungarian forints that Hungarian people deserve. Hungarian companies deserve, health system, education system, transport, the social sphere deserves. We've listened to the previous government a number of times hearing their objections why things cannot be done. They h”
