This is not surprising. Hungary is basically a Chinese-Russian puppet state that happens to be in both the EU and NATO.
We need to kick Hungary out of both.
Kick Hungary out of both EU and NATO
It is time to kick Hungary out of the EU (sorry to the hungarians, I do feel for you)
Hungary and turkey out of NATO, Hungary out of EU and build up electric fence and put military on borders
Well that’s not suspicious…
Getting real sick of your shit Hungary but because this is EU/NATO Im not gonna do anything about it.
Seriously? Are they just going to back every autocrat they find?
right, so EU really has to streamline changes to the voting system, because it is EMBARASSINGLY OBVIOUS that hungary has been compromised and is basically a foreign payed Naysayer.
Who let Hungary into the EU? They are a Russian proxy.
> EU countries wanted to adopt a joint statement raising concerns about the result on Monday but were prevented by Budapest's stance, two officials familiar with the discussions told POLITICO. EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell subsequently published the statement – which says "Credible reports from domestic and international observers indicate that the elections were marred by numerous flaws and irregularities" – in his own name.
> Hungary's veto underlines a fundamental flaw in EU foreign policy whereby decisions – including potential future sanctions on Venezuela – must be unanimously agreed among the bloc's 27 member countries.
To all those saying ‘Kick Hungary out’; please do explain how you think this should be done, as neither institution has (according to the experts) a mechanism to achieve this.
One of these states is not like the others…
Throw them out
Is Hungary still getting EU money?
If so, stop it.
Oh Hungary? Oh Henry.
Can all the countries besides Hungary just release matching statements at the same time? I don’t feel like the statement loses weight without the EU logo on it
Same procedure like last year Mrs Sophie?
Here’s how it usually goes: Orban blocks decision EU gives Orban money Orban approves said decision
We’re paying Orban millions so that he may screw with everything we do.
Why? Just kick Hungary out, no more sweet European money for you. See how they handle it.
We have to do something with Hungary, this is getting out of hand.
This joke is not funny. Kick them out ASAP
Lets kick hungary out. Just make a rule where citizens of EU can vote out a given country. Then said country can reapply once their leaders has left their position.
Somebody please remind me why are they still in the union.
Eject this troll Russian puppet already, for fucks sake.
i hate that they get EU money for their pisspoor economy
Hungary is in the news an awful lot playing the heel lately
Our democracies can’t afford to be soft with these sociopath leaders whose obsession for grandeur and the submission of others through sufferings and humiliations are the only agendas.
My proposal for a new EU rule:
A set of indicators should be established regarding the freedom of the press and freedom of expression in general by which each member country would have to abide. An independent body of international survey organisations and inspectors would monitor the respect of these rules in each member country. The infringement of these rules should automatically trigger penalties against the country according to a progressive scale eventually leading to the exclusion of the country from the EU. “Automatically” would indeed mean that sanctions would not be submitted to debate but to immediate and mandatory implementation following a report.
Again…..
Every day, I look ar Orban, I see Ralph Cifaretto, and I think, “What would Tony do?”
A part from Putin… who needs present-Hungary in the EU?
Can‘t we just kick them out already?
Replace hungary with ukraine in both EU and Nato
EU needs to understand that we can not survive if we don’t remove bad actors.
We need to kick out Hungary, no matter the cost for us.
We don’t live in a peaceful Europe anymore unfortunately.
Liberum veto
How is it that companies can force us to agree to new terms all the time and the EU cannot do the same with their members?
Shocker
In what way is it beneficial to not just boot them out at this point?
Seriously just kick them out, I know it is a difficult process but it needs to be done. Hungary is simply a Russian proxy.
Kick Hungary out.
Like the Poles said, Hungary constantly disparages the EU, NATO and coddles every dictator in the world, but are quite happy enough to take EU money that finances all those state initiatives that the alt right love.

This is the best tl;dr I could make, [original](https://www.politico.eu/article/hungary-block-eu-statement-venezuela-election-results-foreign-policy-josep-borrell/) reduced by 55%. (I’m a bot)
