Such a predictable traitor. Hopefully he has shown the EU where it needs to update it's democratic processes.

That Ukrainian guy that hit that Dutch fascist, Thierry Baudet, on the head with an umbrella needs to come in and cave Orban’s skull in with a beach umbrella.

Can’t we just boot them from the fucking Union, all he does is mooch EU funds to build his private domain modeled after russia, or obstruct something everyone else wants to extort more money while his whole domestic politics play is to shit on the EU.

Is that what the Kremlin wants?

[–] irreticent@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago

No. They can do more damage from the inside.

Orban needs a nice vacation.

[–] Macaroni_ninja@lemmy.world 16 points 11 months ago

He practically owns Hungary. I think the country would deserve a long holiday from Orban and his party.

Send orban to the russian front, where he belongs.

Why not use those requirements he asks for Ukraine to join the EU on Hungary too? No to oligarchs, no to corruption, no to lack of democratic structures would bounce back on him and his oligarchic friends. Fix it, Victor or leave the EU!

This is the best summary I could come up with:


The aid blocking was announced by Mr Orban shortly after the EU leaders decided to open membership talks with Ukraine and Moldova and to grant candidate status to Georgia.

At a news briefing in the early hours of Friday, Mr Michel confirmed that all but one EU leaders had agreed on the aid package and wider budget proposals for the bloc - although Sweden still needed to consult its parliament.

Last week, President Zelensky's wife, Olena, warned in a BBC interview that Ukrainians were in "mortal danger" of being left to die if Western countries did not continue their financial support.

White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan welcomed the EU's "historic" move to open accession talks with Ukraine and Moldova, calling it a "crucial step toward fulfilling their Euro-Atlantic aspirations".

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz praised his fellow leaders for showing a "strong sign of support", adding that it was clear that both Ukraine and Moldova belonged to "the European family".

Earlier on Thursday, President Vladimir Putin mocked Ukraine and claimed Western support was running out: "Excuse my vulgarity, but everything is being brought in as a freebie.

Bro can we finally kill orban?

[–] Quacksalber@sh.itjust.works 13 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

I really hope that with Tusk leading Poland now, we finally are going to some real pressure be exerted onto the Orban regime at least.

Alternatively, silencing Orban by other means is fine by me as well.

[–] CJOtheReal@ani.social 5 points 11 months ago

Bro just send him a letter covered in Anthrax or something like that.

[–] daft61lunacy@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

Such a punchable face.

[–] TheTimeKnife@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Orban is such a collassal jackass
