PM candidate Márki-Zay: Orbán had violated the most important imperative of Christians, not to kill

One cannot be a Christian and vote for ruling Fidesz and Prime Minister Viktor Orbán who heads the most corrupt government in Hungary’s thousand-year history, the prime ministerial candidate of the united opposition said late on Sunday.

Péter Márki-Zay told a regional campaign closing event in Siófok in western Hungary that Orbán had violated the most important imperative of Christians, not to kill, “because he is responsible for the death of 45,000 Coronavirus victims.” During the epidemic, the government introduced free parking instead of free testing and acquired insufficient vaccines because “even at a time like that, it was most interested in how to steal”.

If the united opposition wins, the love for power will be replaced by the power of love, and every person can freely display their identity, Márki-Zay said.

He also said that everyone would be called to account for wrongdoings, regardless of whether they are on the side of the government or the opposition.

He accused those currently in power of election fraud and thanked opposition activists and poll watchers for their work, saying that “they stand on the right side of history”.

If the united opposition wins, Fidesz’s child protection law will be withdrawn and replaced by legal regulations to protect children also “from Fidesz peadophiles”,

he said.

Jobbik leader Péter Jakab said

it was shameful that the government had threatened teachers planning a strike and added that contrary to the cabinet’s claims, the real problems in Hungary were not sex-change operations for kindergarten pupils but the weak forint and expensive fuel and food.
