EU CAUGHT ‘interfering’ in elections in bid to OUST Prime Minister amid oil row with Zelenskyy
The EU has been caught ‘interfering in elections’, standing accused of funding a network of NGOs which are used, in tandem with onerous regulations to steer public opinion and oust governments unpopular with Brussels.
Jacob Reynolds, Head of Policy at MCC Brussels reveals the lengths to which Ursula von der Leyen and the European Commission are going to scupper the chances of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s reelection to a fifth consecutive term.
The row has turned ugly in recent weeks, with Orban and the Slovakian leader accusing Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy of prompting an oil crisis in their countries on Brussels’ behalf by holding up the flow of Russian oil to their countries midwinter, during Hungary’s election. A pumping station was later set on fire, which Ukraine blames on Russia.
Orban, however, is unconvinced, viewing the saga as an attempt by Brussels to sway the Hungarian election and has vowed to block a 90 billion euro loan to Ukraine until the pipelines resumes operations.
In response, Zelenskyy appeared to threaten military action against Viktor Orban, for which he was widely condemned.
Reynolds discusses the way in which Brussels operates through its network of allies, NGOs and regulations to control the politics of its member states.
The MCC Brussels has set up the Democracy Interference Observatory to track the war it says Brussels is waging against free speech and democracy across the continent – already unearthing shocking revelations.
