Orban Shocked EU Plays Hardball; Forgets Own Rule Book
RT reports that Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, a man not typically known for his adherence to multilateral norms, is now accusing the European Union of 'breaching the law' by attempting to commandeer frozen Russian assets. This, he alleges, undermines cooperation. It seems 'cooperation' is only paramount when it serves Budapest's specific, often Russia-aligned, interests. Orban's sudden
legalistic fervor conveniently ignores his own government's consistent obstruction of EU initiatives, from migrant quotas to aid packages for Ukraine. The man who has systematically dismantled democratic institutions in Hungary, leading to frequent EU scrutiny and withheld funds, now demands strict adherence to rules when it benefits Moscow. How many times can one cry 'wolf' before the hypocrisy
is just... expected?
