It is alarming that two nuclear powers are preparing to deploy uranium weapons a few hundred kilometers from Hungary’s border, PM Viktor Orban told Hungary’s public radio this morning, adding that this also shows that the war situation is more serious than ever.

The organisations and leaders in charge of Hungary’s security must be on constant alert, Viktor Orban told Kossuth Radio’s “Good Morning Hungary” program. The prime minister stressed that the war situation was more serious than ever, and Europe was still in a state of war psychosis. PM Orban underlined that Hungary’s defense and interior ministers have been given specific tasks at the Defense Council meeting. He said what could be done to ensure the country’s security had been done. According to Mr Orban, the Hungarian position is that there is no solution to this war on the battlefield, urging diplomacy to be used and peace talks to commence. “If there is a ceasefire, then inflation might just disappear”, he said.

– NATO has been cautious so far, and the positions of NATO and Hungarian diplomacy appear to coincide, PM Orban said, adding that what is happening is all part of a decision taken by the member states. Was the military strategy chosen by the West at the beginning of the war – that Russian could be defeated militarily by Ukrainian troops fighting and the West sending the weapons – a reasonable choice? – Hungary’s prime minister asked. He stressed that this was a flawed military concept.

Mr Orban said it was alarming that two nuclear superpowers were planning to deploy uranium weapons a few hundred kilometers from the Hungarian border.

He recalled that the US President found no objection to the introduction of uranium weapons, and that the Russian President also said that then, they would use these weapons, too.

When there is a war, there are always speculators and George Soros is one such speculator, Mr Orban said. He pointed out that those in the pro-peace camp will be right. adding that were right in a moral sense when we opted to have peace. In a few short months’ time, this could be the norm in the West, PM Orban said. He stressed that it was in Hungary’s interest to have a pro-peace leader at the helm in the United States, adding, however, that the Soros empire is attacking Donald Trump with a vengeance.

Mr Orban said the government had made a clear commitment in a very difficult situation. He said that Hungary is importing most of its energy needs. “We are going to bring down inflation, and that is why we have introduced several important decisions. Next year’s budget will also follow this logic, that inflation should be in single digits by year’s the end.

We need more stable points, Mr Orban said. He stressed that it was not easy to foresee all the economic developments five to six months ahead, adding that Hungarians must put together a budget that is capable of protecting families, pensioners and jobs.

In times of war, it helps the country if citizens keep their savings in treasury bills or government bonds, the prime minister said. This is why people are encouraged to choose government bonds, instead of simple bank savings. He said the tax levied on bank savings was a temporary solution, one that was needed in the current situation, so long as the war lasts.

Regarding the increase of the excise duty of gas, PM Orban indicated that it was a “pain in the neck,” but since we are members of the EU, there is a range of economic measures that the Brussels bureaucrats have control over and they have decided that excise duty on petrol should be raised. This is also true for another product group, namely packaging materials and glass, so the cost of waste management will also increase, he said.

Now when we have war-time inflation, it is a grave mistake to burden member states with bad decisions from Brussels,

– he added. PM Orban explained that his government has prepared an economic protection action plan to counteract the bad decisions made in Brussels, and that it will attempt to infuse the economy with some new dynamism. The details, he said, would be outlined at next week’s government press briefing.

– Regarding the vote on the migrant quota scheme, Hungary and Poland have said no, PM Orban stressed.

He underlined that we are facing a very unpleasant turn of events. He said that the solution should not be to distribute migrants, but to protect our borders. He said he thought that we had already won this battle, adding, however, that this recent coup-like decision showed that this was not the case.

Mr Orban believes there is a link between George Soros handing over his empire to his son and the adoption of the migrant quota in Brussels. One could say that the Soros empire has struck back, something that’s been forced down the throats of the majority of Europeans, Mr Orban said. He also stressed that Hungary has no intention of implementing the measure. He underlined that people in Brussels should accept that border protection costs money, but instead of helping us, they are punishing Hungary, he added. “We must be prepared that the Soros family will incite the migrants, and the pressure on Hungary’s southern border will increase, Mr Orban said.

Hungary’s premier emphasized that accepting and taking in migrants entailed huge security risks.

– We don’t want to be proven right, we want the Germans to be right in Germany and the Hungarians to be right in Hungary. We are asking those in Brussels not to tell us whom we should live with,

– Mr Orban pointed out. He also signaled that, due to the amendment to Hungary’s Fundamental Law adopted at the beginning of the migration crisis, the ideas put forward by Brussels are not in line with Hungary’s existing legal order.
