[0:13](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=13) Why? Because during Angela Merkel's "Wir schaffen das" crisis they simply didn't want to take part and didn't take part. [0:21](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=21) Meanwhile, Austria took in 120,000 asylum seekers in 2022 and Germany took in hundreds of thousands that year, Hungary took in seven asylum seekers and the seven don't get social benefits either, but soap, a mattress, a roof over their heads, [0:36](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=36) as is rightly the case. So, that was essentially the nature of Viktor Orbán. [0:41](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=41) And now we're looking at Poland and Hungary and the duplicity, the double standards of the European Union. [0:48](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=48) So, Viktor Orbán was supposedly the great dictator. [0:51](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=51) But the great dictator could be voted out. [0:53](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=53) So Viktor Orbán was voted out by his own people. [0:56](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=56) What a surprise. This is the first time in human history, that a dictator has been voted out. [1:01](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=61) Now there are two possibilities: either the dictator wasn't competent enough, yes, he was too stupid or he wasn't a dictator. [1:09](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=69) Having known Orbán and seen what he's like, he's neither stupid nor inefficient, I can only conclude that he was never a dictator, despite what the European Union claimed, but he could be voted out quite normally in a democracy and he can also be voted back in a democracy, [1:23](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=83) if democracy were working as it should. You can no longer do that in Hungary, because in the meantime the so-called great liberal freedom fighter Mr. Madyar has since, with a two-thirds majority, illegally removed the president of the republic, [1:38](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=98) illegally removed the chief justices and illegally signed an election law. [1:44](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=104) That means Viktor Orbán and a number of other politicians will never again be able to run for parliament alone in Hungary. [1:53](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=113) That is a clear violation of every Hungarian's right to stand for election. [1:58](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=118) And so I ask, who is the dictator? Viktor Orbán? No, it wasn't him. [2:02](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=122) Peter Madyar? Yes, because he is doing exactly what Viktor Orbán was wrongly accused of. [2:09](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=129) And now we come to Poland, which is also very interesting. [2:11](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=131) Tusk, the so-called liberal model politician, a veteran statesman with a pronounced political patter, actually, in Hungary, is nothing but Magyar, in, uh, in Poland, nothing but Magyar in Hungary. [2:25](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=145) That means he himself breaks the law. He nominates not three Constitutional Court judges, but eight Constitutional Court judges, which are in direct conflict with the constitution. [2:35](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=155) The president does not swear in those eight. [2:39](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=159) Okay? Now the question is, who is on the side of the law? [2:44](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=164) Donald Tusk or Narowski? Well, obviously, the head of state. [2:49](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=169) The one who is then called a dictator in Europe. [2:52](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=172) So, what we're seeing right now is the inversion of the truth. [2:56](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=176) When an AfD politician wins a perfectly ordinary democratic election, wins, then people call it a seizure of power. [3:07](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=187) Seizing power, like the Nazis. Seizing power. [3:11](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=191) When an SPD or CDU/CSU candidate wins, God hasn't been around for years, then it's called a successful election. [3:18](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=198) When, for example, the Serbian Prime Minister Vučić is voted out in a democratic election, whom some have also accused of being a dictator, then it's called a downfall. [3:30](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=210) Vučić, downfall, seizing power, downfall. [3:35](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=215) We can think for ourselves about what the media are doing to us. [3:39](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=219) The same poison of untruth, of lies, of fake news. [3:42](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=222) But when Friedrich Merz is voted out, it's called Merz's electoral defeat, but not a downfall. [3:49](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=229) Okay? And that's how people try, through language, to create an image in the media that is deeply deceitful. [3:57](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=237) They try to explain that Vučić, Orbán or Nawrocki or whatever they're all called, were terrible dictators in Putin's pay. [4:06](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=246) And that's how they try to break them, because they are the last conservatives in Europe. [4:11](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=251) Because in the background, a left-wing, left-liberal, sham-conservative mafia is at work, that lies to us, the people, through its public broadcasters and wants to cement its power by any means, by any means using lies and violating the constitution. [4:33](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=273) So anyone who wants to find the real criminals will find them in the public broadcasting institutions. [4:40](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=280) They'll find them in the European Parliament and the Commission and they'll find them in the state chanceries of Europe's heads of government. [4:48](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=288) Then they'll have found the real criminals against our freedom, against our democracy, against our prosperity, in our security, but above all, in the truth. [4:57](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/INure6EwyBEM/en/orb%C3%A1n-magyar-and-tusk-criticism-of-the-eu-and-media?t=297) And that's fascinating.
