Today was the 24th time Viktor #Orbán gave his traditional „state of the nation” speech. From the Ukrainian war to inflation and gender, here is a quick recap of what the #Hungarian PM had to say. 👇 Image
2/6 Orbán is convinced the war between Russia and Ukraine could last for years, and everyone in the NATO and the EU, except Hungarians, is on the side of war.
3/6 The only “morally right thing to do” is to stay out of the war. The war in Ukraine showed that Russia would not stand a chance against NATO, and it is therefore wrong to think that Russia poses a threat to Hungary's security, Orbán added.
4/6 The PM added that Europe was in the midst of drifting into war, balancing on a thin line, and in fact is already at indirect war with Russia - for example, by supplying weapons and training soldiers.
5/6 Economic relations with Russia must be maintained, it is in the national interest, and Orbán is proposing the same to his allies.
6/6 Finally, Orbán mixed paedophilia with LGBTQ people once again. “Gender propaganda is not a rainbow chitchat, there is no excuse for paedophilia”, he said.

"Whoever controls the media, controls the mindset of that country and through that, the country itself."

Words from the political director of PM Viktor #Orbán in #Hungary where Fidesz has pursued the most advanced model of media capture ever developed within the EU.

Today, the #Hungarian government has issued a decree which will require doctors to present women requesting an #abortion with fetal vital signs before proceeding with the procedure. 1/4 (Thread) 👇
2/4 Though the decree will be hard to put into practice, this is a clear sign that the Orban government wants to appease the far right who have requested the change for some time.
3/4 Hungary’s abortion laws are considered liberal (can be administered until the 12th week) and this is the first time they have been changed since 1992. The Fundamental Law also states “life should be protected from the time of conception”

1/7 It’s Thursday and thanks to a study published by Hungary's State Audit Office, #Hungarian women now know that their over-representation in higher education is causing demographic challenges and puts boys at a disadvantage in schools. Thread from 1892 – sorry, 2022.👇
2/7 The study is based on a questionnaire, with the answers of 700 teachers and parents. As such, it is a perfect representation of Hungarian (and Central European) social norms.
3/7 The study, reported by @nepszava , argues that girls' traits such as emotional and social maturity, diligence, listening skills, tolerance of monotony, good oral and written expression - are more important in schools than mathematical and technical skills needed for boys.

Yesterday, @TuckerCarlson aired a video from the Hungarian-Serbian border, investigating “how #Hungary solved its border crisis”. Some of the footage caught my eye, so I thought I would offer a quick fact check. A thread.
2/7 He began by claiming that the Hungarian border fence effectively ended illegal migration into the country. In fact, HU police arrested 54 000 illegal migrants from January to August this year, threefold increase from 2020. That does not include the numbers that evaded arrest.
3/7 Carlson is amazed by the “effectiveness” of the Hungarian system, when seeing migrants escorted back to Serbia through a door in the fence. What he saw is actually called pushback and it is unlawful.

So here it is: #Hungarian PM Viktor #Orban announced a 5 question referendum about what he calls "the future of Hungarian children”. The questions are the following, (thanks for the translation @ivanlnagy )
1. Do you support that children shall encounter sexual educational content that shows different sexual orientations without parental consent?
2. Do you support that sex changing procedures shall be promoted to children?

3. Do you support that such procedures shall be made available for children?

1/10 Hungarian authorities have so far authorized 5 different coronavirus vaccines in the country (AstraZeneca, Pfizer, Moderna, Sputnik V, Sinopharm). Let's see how the vaccination campaign is going in a country that has chosen to take a different path from the EU. A thread. 👇
2/10 So far, 292 627 Hungarians have received their jabs, 113 570 even got their second dose. These are Moderna and Pfizer vaccines. So, no matter how hard the government is criticizing Brussels, the fact is: without the EU, the total number of people vaccinated in HU would be 0.
3/10 With a population of 9,8 million, this puts the percentage of vaccinated people around 3% (including those under 18). This is slightly better than the EU average.
