Peter Magyar has held a press conference in which he spoke about his view on foreign policy, especially about current issues on the EU agenda, such as: the EU loan to Ukriane, Ukraine’s EU accession, relations with Russia, etc. In this video we are taking a close look at Peter Magyar’s position on these issues. Also, China has warned Donald Trump about the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, stating that China has every intention to abide by it’s trade agreements with Iran and therefore they expect nobody to interfere with their ships. Ursula von Der Leyen wants the EU to move from the “veto system” to a “qualified majority voting system” in foreign policy.

Hungary's Big Shift: Peter Magyar Signals EU Turn — China Warns Trump

Hungary's Magyar comments on EU's €90bn loan for Ukraine

Ivanna Kostina, Oleksandr Shumilin — 13 April, 17:46

Quote: "But personally I agree that Hungary should not take part in this mechanism. Hungary is in a very difficult financial situation, and our task is to bring back the EU funds that are owed to us. We cannot take on more loans. But the decision has already been taken by the European Council in December, so I do not know why this issue should be raised again."

More details: Magyar referred to the fact that Orbán had changed his position too often.

Quote: "We will try to be consistent and honest in our communication and will not change our position every six months."

Background:

Following the defeat of Viktor Orbán in the elections on 12 April, the European Union is hoping that both its €90 billion loan for Ukraine and the 20th Russia sanctions package can be unblocked as quickly as possible.

BRUSSELS — European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen waited less than a day after Hungary voted Viktor Orbán out of office to call for the EU to get more power over national governments to force through foreign policy decisions.

Governments should be able to push through EU policies ― on issues that could include sanctions on Russia and funds for Ukraine ― by majority rather than allowing individual nations to wield a veto, she told reporters in Brussels. Under Orbán, Hungary’s prime minister for 16 years, Hungary has often blocked foreign policy decisions.

“Moving to qualified majority voting in foreign policy is an important way to avoid systemic blockages, as we have seen in the past,” she said. She urged governments, which would have to agree to any change, to “use the momentum now.”
