When I returned habitation from a trip, 1 of the commencement intelligence that appeared on the displays was that the European Parliament has voted to launch Article seven against Hungary: 448 for, 197 against, 48 abstained.
It's a nuclear option allowed past times the Treaty of Lisbon (a treaty that turned the European Union into a novel Soviet Union a decade ago) that starts a procedure that may halt upwards alongside the annihilation of Hungary's voting rights inside the European Union and/or all the fiscal inflows from the EU, amid other sanctions. I promise in addition to I nevertheless sympathise the province of affairs then that Poland volition ultimately hold upwards capable of vetoing all these plans (Article 7.2 nevertheless requires a unanimous vote inwards the European Council which has folks from all European Union fellow member states) but I am no longer sure. The European Union could preemptively take the Polish in addition to Hungarian votes inwards the European Council in addition to squeeze everyone else.
The same article has been launched against Poland – non past times the European Parliament but rather past times the European Commission (the "government of Europe"). Republic of Hungary considers the vote to hold upwards a fraud, a piddling revenge for Hungary's asylum in addition to immigration policies, in addition to – as Orbán said – an insult to the Hungarian history. H5N1 Fidesz MEP called the determination "legally invalid" because voting rules were breached.
"The Mézga [Mr Badluck's] Family", hither the subject music alongside Czech lyrics (orig. here; inwards Czech, the psyche characters got native Czech names), is the most famous Hungarian cartoon for my in addition to somewhat older generation. It's a clear counterpart of The Simpsons except that the Hungarian exhibit was twenty years older (1969-1978). The Simpsons were commencement aired inwards 1989. I intend that (not only) Yankees should sentry a twain of cartoons similar that to larn rid of the wrong persuasion that the globe would hold upwards impossible without the U.S.
The evolution wasn't quite unexpected but it's nevertheless infuriating to run across that it has truly taken place. Most Czech voters must receive got been shocked what variety of unreliable allies inwards the Visegrád Group Czech Republic is. Ten Czech MEPs voted against the proposal to harass Hungary, nine MEPs receive got supported it. So a bulk is against the proposal but the bulk is infinitesimal. There are iv deputies for billionaire PM Babiš's ANO displace amid the nine traitors – and, thankfully, cypher MEPs for the centre right ODS. The social democrats were perfectly diverse: 1 yes (the proposed government minister of unusual affairs Poche), 1 no, 1 neutral, 1 absent.
Three weeks ago, I discussed the 1968 Soviet-led invasion to Czechoslovakia precisely 50 years earlier. Leonid Brezhnev in addition to his soulmates didn't similar the liberalization in addition to democratization processes inwards Czechoslovakia. Those were stopped past times animate beingness force. Two months after the occupation, the "Brezhnev Doctrine" close the express sovereignty of the socialist countries (in the instance when socialism was threatened) was articulated to retroactively rationalize the invasion of Czechoslovakia.
Well, at that topographic point was a similar event inwards Republic of Hungary inwards 1956. People were already pißed off past times the Soviet-dictated communism in addition to the economical misery caused past times it that was already self-evident in addition to started a counterrevolution alongside similarly idealist pro-freedom, pro-independence attitudes – the commencement shots appeared inwards front end of the sculpture of Jozsef Bem, a Polish in addition to Hungarian hero, where Peter Veresz, the boss of a writer's union, read a manifesto.
Despite the really different languages, Poland in addition to Republic of Hungary receive got been unopen allies throughout the minute millennium, this alliance played the run inwards 1956 as I only mentioned, in addition to it's crucial today, too. I am ashamed to terra firma this fact but Poland is ultimately the entirely reliable ally that Republic of Hungary may rely upon in addition to vice versa.
Everything inwards Czechoslovakia – including the defenestrations, the Nazi trouble of the Sudetenland, the Nazi trouble of the rest-Czechia, the Second World War, the communist coup, the Prague Spring, the invasion killing the Prague Spring, the Velvet Revolution, in addition to the Velvet Divorce – has e'er been based on velvet.
Well, it wasn't quite the instance of Hungary. There was existent fighting. 30,000 Soviet troops arrived alongside their 1,000+ tanks in addition to the counterrevolution was crushed, after 2500 Hungarians in addition to 700 Soviets were killed. Twelve years later, inwards much to a greater extent than peaceful in addition to culturally thriving atmospheric condition of Czechoslovakia, the numbers were completely different. Brezhnev wanted to hold upwards certain then that amount lay out of invading troops was 500,000 (in 3 waves, each comparable to 150,000 soldiers), alongside the peak strength of 6,300 tanks, patch the casualties were entirely 100+100 on the 2 sides.
These days, Viktor Orbán is a political heavyweight inwards Republic of Hungary – alongside unusually numerous fan groups exterior Republic of Hungary – who has repeatedly won a huge bulk inwards the democratic elections. He got a clear back upwards that allows him to brand mundane everyday decisions but fifty-fifty somewhat deeper decisions. Hungarian voters clearly desire the European values to hold upwards preserved inwards Republic of Hungary – that includes the private freedoms, Christianity, the numerical authorization of the white people, the stronger ability (over the media, schools etc.) of the gratis people who aren't corrupt past times the likes of George Soros, non-communist command over the judicial system, in addition to other things.
If you're non Hungarian, y'all may dislike about events inwards Republic of Hungary in addition to I could uncovering about events or changes that I dislike, also (although I wrote the listing a min agone then that I would claim that entirely a really anti-European mortal could disagree alongside those things). But it's non your moral right to blackmail Republic of Hungary inwards this way. And as importantly, you're only wrong if y'all intend (and you're a liar if y'all claim) that you're protecting the European values against Hungary. The truth is by in addition to large the inverse of that statement. Republic of Hungary is protecting the European values against you, against non-European invaders – in addition to straightaway against the bulk of the European parliament, too.
Thank God, none of the European Union apparatchiks are existent men in addition to tanks sent from Brussels aren't killing thousands of freedom-loving Hungarian patriots these days. Things are manifestly done differently, to a greater extent than effeminately (Judith Sargentini wrote a study that was used to justify this gesture against Republic of Hungary in addition to today's celebrated as her victory – if the European Union weren't gear upwards to produce such nasty things, she would hold upwards about other irrelevant Dutch blonde dark-green bitch, but inwards this situation, I would receive got a amount agreement for the determination to ship the particular Hungarian units to receive got her downward only similar SEAL did alongside Osama bin Laden), past times constant verbal threats, whining, propaganda, bureaucratic harassment of the inconvenient people, in addition to attempted grapheme assassinations. But fifty-fifty these effeminate attacks against Republic of Hungary could hold upwards harmful.
Today, about other entity has attacked Republic of Hungary for slowing downward illegal immigration: the U.N. Office for Human Rights led past times Abū Bakr al-Baghdadi or someone similar that.
But at the end, my optimism dominates. Even Euractiv informed us that Viktor Orbán's Republic of Hungary of 2030 volition hold upwards a paradise, dissimilar the geographically Western Europe.
H5N1 to a greater extent than relevant video – alongside monologues past times Farage in addition to Orbán.
Some proficient news. I receive got e'er said prissy things close Slovaks but I persuasion that 1 of the signs of their political immaturity was non to celebrate the anniversaries of the nativity of Czechoslovakia. Thank God, Oct 30th, 2018, the engagement when Slovaks joined Czechoslovakia (in 1918), was declared a once-in-a-century national holiday. ;-)
