Brussels Commands, Orban Complains: Budapest Pride is ‘Disgusting and Shameful’!
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban is stirring up a storm over the recent Pride parade in Budapest. He accused the European Union of directly ordering the event, calling it “disgusting and shameful” and claiming such manifestations do not align with Hungarian culture. Orban cited a figure of 3.7 million Hungarians who, according to him, reject what Pride promotes — “pure gender propaganda.”
Brussels as the Commander
Orban claims Brussels ignored the will of the citizens and that his allies in Hungarian politics obediently carried out the order to organize the Pride. He linked this event to other issues like migration and Ukraine, arguing that sovereign governments have become puppets on Brussels’ strings.
End of LGBT Parades in Hungary?
The Prime Minister announced that LGBT parades will no longer be allowed in Hungary, stating that such events should never have been held in the first place. This has sparked further controversy, as the Saturday gathering in Budapest was supported by a significant number of European politicians, highlighting deep divisions within the EU.
Orban’s Rhetoric and Political Background
In an address to a closed online group of his supporters, Orban accused opposition politicians of, under Brussels’ orders, calling their voters to massively attend the event, which then turned into anti-government protests. This rhetoric further polarizes Hungarian society and the EU, as the conflict between national interests and European values intensifies.
What Do Others Say?
Local media report that the Pride parade in Budapest was a sign of support for the LGBTQ community but also an opportunity to express dissatisfaction with the government. Orban’s claim that the EU ordered the organization of Pride and that Hungarian politicians obediently executed the order has sparked numerous reactions and questions about the independence of Hungarian politics.
Conclusion
While Orban claims Brussels ordered the Pride and his allies in Hungary obediently executed the order, many see this as an attempt to divert attention from other problems and further solidify his position ahead of upcoming elections.
