Jun 30, 2024
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, together with representatives of the Czech Republic and Austria, is creating a far-right faction in the European Parliament.
This was reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to Euronews.
Together with Orban, the party will be created by the president of the Austrian Freedom Party (FPÖ) Herbert Kickl and former Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babiš, who is the leader of the ANO party. The politicians signed the Patriots for Europe manifesto in Vienna on Sunday, June 30.
All three parties are far-right and have pro-Russian views.
"Europeans want three things: peace, order, and development. All they get from the current Brussels elite is war, migration, and stagnation. In this situation, our duty is to ensure the expression of the will of the voters. Today, three political parties have united: the strongest party in Austria, the strongest party in the Czech Republic, and the strongest party in Hungary. Our goal is to become the strongest right-wing group in European politics," Orban wrote in X.
