Commission’s 2021 Rule of Law Report (debate)
Dear Madam President, We've had enough! My fellow Members here in the European Parliament and, perhaps more importantly for me, millions of Hungarian citizens have had enough. We are tired of the pointless and bypassing debates about exactly where, when and how much breaches of the rule of law damage the budget of the European Union. I want to be clear, please understand. The essence of breaking down the rule of law in Hungary, its ultimate goal is theft. Theft of public funds and accumulation of private assets. The restriction of the independent press, so that it is not possible to know, it is not possible to find out who, from where, why and how much has been stolen. The occupation of the Constitutional Court so that laws permitting theft can survive. The occupation of the Public Prosecutor's Office to ensure that cases affecting Fidesz's top circles or the Prime Minister's family do not reach the point of indictment. The goal, essence and meaning of breaking down the rule of law in Hungary is the theft of public funds. Stealing taxpayers' money from the European Union, you don't want to help corrupt governments with that, do you? I would like to contact the Commission. Stop the barren debates. Take action at last! Finally, get results! This is what this House expects from you, and more importantly, it is what millions of European citizens, including several million Hungarians, expect from you.
