Swedish PM demands explanation from Orbán about delay on Hungary’s vote on Sweden’s NATO membership

  1. To add a bit more context, the Hungarian government is officially fine with this NATO expansion for both new nominees, but meanwhile they’re spending billions of HUF to spread the propaganda that Zelensky bad, EU bad, war bad (so Zelensky is the one who should give it up) etc. Probably you all knew this.

    Meanwhile, Turkey is a good friend because any functioning autocracy/dictatorship is a good friend apparently. Especially Erdogan’s.

    The funny part is that only Turkey had issues with Sweden. Hungary hasn’t got the slightest difference between Sweden and Finland from NATO expansion point of view (either). And recently, Turkey announced they are OK with Finland, so Orbán followed this step, but officially this favor doesn’t exist, so the explanation doesn’t exist yet.

    Hungary is a country of evil idiots. As a Hungarian, I really like this demand for explanation. The tragicomedy continues.

  2. According to many comments, Hungary can not be kicked out of the EU – and also not out of NATO (haven’t seen too many comments on this one).

    Realistically – **what are realistic things** that the EU, NATO, and the West can do to **punish Orban** for his treacherous behavior?

  3. Well, the explanation is…

    “Nem szól már a Ruszkik haza,

    Finom lett a Putin fasza!”

    Unknown protester

    Swedish translation with DeepL:
    “Ruszkik ringer inte längre hem, Putin har en fin kuk”

  4. Smart move by the swedish PM, as hungary’s excuses have been mostly made up technicalities so far. We know from the finnish case that orban is waiting for turkey, but will nevertheless be interesting to see what he says.

  5. Swedish PM: “What’s going on with our NATO application? I need an answer”.
    Orban: “Can’t talk while my mouth is full with Putin’s dick”.
