Police officers put an end to Orbán’s convervatism conference in Brussels 🔄
Change is needed in Brussels because the EU “is no longer the capital of freedom but a tool of left-progressive-liberal oppression”, the prime minister’s political director said in Brussels on Tuesday.
On the sidelines of the National Conservatism Conference, Balázs Orbán told Hungarian journalists that national conservative forces were “fed up with the Brussels super-state” and the “failed policies of the Brussels leadership,” which had sent Europe into a downward spiral.
National conservatives, he said, rejected pro-migration positions and wanted to live in a Europe of freedom and nations in which the bloc could also protect its own borders. He added that the EU should be a “peace project again” rather than a “war project.”
The political director said “the authorities and violent far-left antifa groups” had made it impossible to hold the conference in several locations, which he said was “astounding”.
“The sovereigntist, anti-immigration and pro-peace forces cannot be silenced,”
he added. He said the European Parliament elections on June 9 could bring about the change, and candidates of the Hungarian government side would “fight for the country’s interests” and make Hungarian voices heard in Brussels.

🔄 Political director: Brussels left acted ‘shamefully’ by stymying National Conservatism Conference
The left wing in Brussels “acted shamefully” by attempting to stymie the peaceful National Conservatism Conference organised with the participation of professors, researchers and MEPs, the political director of the Prime Minister’s Office said late on Tuesday. Balázs Orbán said in Brussels that the left wing had “lost all moral grounds on which to preach” about constitutionality, human rights and democracy.
He said it was important that Prime Minister Viktor Orbán had been able to address the event. “We were able to express our opinion and say that no matter how they pressurise or try to suppress us, we will not give up our policies,” he said. “They also gave proof of why a different type of institutional leadership is needed in Brussels, because the current lot are incapable of achieving outcomes that would satisfy the demands of European voters,” he added.
