It is time for the #EU to deal with #Orban - and I say that as a strong supporter of Hungary and Hungarians in general - he and his party cannot be allowed to undermine us from within anymore and his country deserves better too.

@ScottLucas - Associates of #Hungary’s far-right PM Orbán, a long-time ally of #Putin, are meeting Republicans in Washington to press for the end of US military support for #Ukraine

Orban wins his national elections, he earned his place at the EU table and there's no quick way to "deal with" that.
In any case, he's hardly a big player in German or Dutch politics, a factor that can explain the illiberal gain: we simply do the undermining to ourselves and then try to blame an outsider rather than admit our own faults.
@ScottLucas
@jmaris Saying that is just outright denying the reality created by article 15.2 of the Treaty on European Union, not sure what you want to accomplish with it...
@tobychev I'd invite you to read Article 7 TEU before trying to explain the treaties to me.
@tobychev his place at the table is dependent on him upholding European values
