Jobbik MEP hails Biden’s inauguration, highlights ‘common values’

Márton Gyöngyösi, the MEP representing conservative opposition Jobbik, has issued a statement welcoming the inauguration of Joe Biden.

In the statement on Wednesday, Gyongyosi highlighted “common values” as eclipsing the ideological differences between the incoming US president and Jobbik.

“We trust that the new president will be able to give the United States new momentum by surmounting the battles of the past several months and years. We believe that, beyond the differences in our ideological views, there are values such as democratic institutions, the rule of law and fair politics that bind us,” he said.

“We believe that in these difficult times the United States and the world, too, need stability. We are convinced that stability is key to restoring relations between Europe and the US, and Jobbik is striving to help acheive this goal,” Gyongyosi said.
