Opposition: ‘Orbán has driven Hungary into crisis’
Change language:
Parties of the united opposition accused Viktor Orbán of “having driven Hungary into a crisis”, in reaction to remarks made by the prime minister in an interview earlier on Friday.
László Varjú, deputy leader of the Democratic Coalition (DK), told a joint online press conference that “Viktor Orbán has admitted that there is, or will soon be, a crisis and if he gets a mandate to continue to govern, he will prepare to take austerity measures”.
Tímea Szabó, co-leader of Párbeszéd, said “the prime minister’s remarks were an open admission that he has driven Hungary into a crisis”. “The prime minister and his Fidesz party have done nothing else over the past twelve years but kept stealing,” she said. Szabó noted
months and years long waiting lists in health care and food price increases by 100-200 forints week after week,
calling Viktor Orban “the one and only danger to Hungary” today.
Máté Kanász-Nagy, co-leader of LMP, said Orban admitted after twelve years of governing that Hungary had faced an economic and social crisis, for which he said the prime minister was to blame.
Protect Hungary from WAR and economic devastation. Vote for Hungary First Orban!
The issue of war is outside of Hungary’s hands, it is a member of NATO. Economic matters are also outside of Hungary’s control to a large degree, it cannot insulate itself deform the global economy. Orbán and his merry band of fanatics cannot change that.
