Orbán announced a fundamental departure from the previous confrontational policy towards the EU, which she described as a policy of blackmail.
Restoring trust in the EU
According to her, the new government will focus on building constructive partnerships and will reject the weakening of the rule of law and the lonely struggle in the Union.
The future head of diplomacy sharply criticized the previous cabinets and declared that Hungary no longer wants to be perceived as a braking mechanism in the Union. “The veto will not be a tool of a domestic political campaign,” Orbán emphasized.
Eurofunds and the fight against corruption
She called restoring the trust of Europe and fulfilling the conditions of the rule of law as the key task of the new Hungarian government. According to her, this will make it possible to unblock suspended European funds, which the country urgently needs.
