Before several thousand attendees, the Prime Minister said it is nothing new that Hungary is under attack as the Brussels bureaucrats, “led by Soros and his people” had attacked Hungary also before. “They wanted to turn Hungary into a migrant country, they wanted to re-educate our children with gender activists, they wanted to do away with the 13thmonthly pension and to make people pay horror prices for energy, they wanted to get hold of and to take away the Hungarian people’s money in Hungary,” he listed. He recalled that in 2022 they had averted the attack when six opposition parties had been pushed onto a single list by “their Brussels masters.”
In his view, now, however, the situation is more difficult “because the Ukrainians, too, have joined the ranks.”
Today Ukraine’s EU membership is the biggest threat, he laid down, adding that he understands them as their country has gone to ruin, a country which “was a dysfunctional mess” even before the war, “let alone now, during and after the war.” He took the view that the Ukrainians could not stand on their own two feet, “they need someone else’s money,” this is why they want to gain admission to the European Union at any cost and immediately.
The Prime Minister believes that the Ukrainians do not care that they would also bring the war into the EU, that they destroy farmers and that we will become a transit country for the Ukrainian mafia, but “we Hungarians do care,” he added.
We do not want to be dragged into their war, we do not want them to destroy our farmers, we do not want to turn Europe’s safest country into a mafia nest, and we do not want the Hungarian people’s money to go to Ukraine through Brussels. “No, no, and no,” he stressed.
In his view, this is what “the series of Ukrainian secret service operations organised against Hungary” is about, as is “the smear campaign against Hungary financed from abroad,” and this is why Brussels “wants to push down our throats the pro-Ukrainian Tisza-Dobrev coalition.” At the same time he stated that Ukrainian membership might well be good for people in the West, but it was bad for us. “They will have the coffee, we will be left with the dregs,” he said, adding that we live here in their immediate neighbourhood, “they will attack our borders, they will occupy our jobs, they will take our money there.”
We must resist and we will, Mr Orbán stated.
The Prime Minister said it would be “the worst ill fortune” if Brussels and Ukraine took control of the country now when Hungary had finally managed to pull itself together, if they again turned Hungary into a mere colony and they again pickpocketed the money of Hungarian families.
He said justice is on the side of the Hungarians, but this is not enough, “if it were enough, we wouldn’t have lost two thirds of our country.” He added that you must back up justice with strength.
He recalled that they had succeeded in winning several times, mentioning as examples “the migration battle” due to which Hungary today is “a migrant-free country” and the battle fought for the future of children in which they defended parents’ right to decide on the education of their children, and restrained “unnatural views and trends.” “Things will remain this way as long as Hungary has a family protecting, national government,” he stated.
At the beginning of his speech, Mr Orbán welcomed the several thousand attendees of the event as “the freedom fighters of the digital world,” stressing that those gathered together at the event Fight Club who responded to his call to Hungarian patriots. He said he sought out and continues to seek out those who do not just love their country and are ready to work for it, but are also prepared to fight for it.
He said the world has changed, and the realm of online, digital reality has also reached politics.
He said “we continue to remain the biggest and best organised political community in the whole of Europe,” but we need to innovate, we must also move into virtual space. While personal relations remain the most precious in every person’s life, what we need now is “to become the strongest also in digital space,” he pointed out, adding that this is why they established the club of digital freedom fighters.
He described the achievement of the club’s first ten thousand members as fantastic, “you have created the inner core of the digital defence forces.” Mr Orbán asked each member of the club to bring one more person, one more fighter within a week. He also asked them to observe the rules of the club, and to take responsibility for the new members they introduce to the club because they do not want any “bad eggs.”
“At the end of next week, we’ll be twenty thousand. In the autumn, we’ll double our ranks again, and by January we will reach a hundred thousand. We will fight the 2026 election with one hundred thousand digital freedom fighters who love their country,” he stated.
The Prime Minister said their opponents fight without showing their faces, in a stealthy manner, for money and driven by greed for power, while the club members fight in an honest fashion, showing their faces, driven by their hearts and enthusiasm, and the heart eventually prevails over money. “We need many hearts, and then not even all the money of Brussels, not even all the spy networks of the Ukrainians will be enough to defeat us,” he laid down.
Mr Orbán said the first battle has arrived, it is called Vote2025, and the stakes are enormous, while the opponent is fully prepared. They found the new Lieutenant Hegedűs [the traitor in the novel ‘The Eclipse of the Crescent Moon’ by Géza Gárdonyi], the same as the Turks did at Eger, he stressed, adding that “it’s time for us, too, to set out. In the old days, on the castle walls, today on Facebook.”
Mr Orbán said when we think of our country, we feel pride; whey they think of Hungary, they feel anger.” “The Tisza-Dobrev coalition respects the Ukrainian state more than the Hungarian; holds Brussels in higher esteem than Budapest,” he pointed out.
For them Ukraine’s EU membership is more important than the Hungarian people’s security and welfare. They are Zelenskyy’s friends, not the Hungarians’, he added.
He asked the questions: What kind of a person works against their own country? What kind of a person is proud of having succeeded in preventing the refurbishment of fifty Hungarian hospitals? What kind of a person has a master, rather than a country? What kind of a person seeks favours with Kiev and Brussels, rather than coveting the love of the Hungarian people?
What strange state of affairs is it that fake civil society organisations continually work against the Hungarian people from money received from abroad? What strange state of affairs is it to operate a war propaganda network against your own country? – the Prime Minister listed his questions.
He added that the people in America had put an end to this state of affairs; it is time for Hungary to follow the American people.
Political debate, yes. Freedom of speech, yes. Money from abroad, no, he said, stating in summary that those who are engaged in politics must not be allowed to receive money from abroad.
He said they will not yield an inch on this issue because the country is not for sale for any amount of money, not even if Tisza, DK, Brussels and Kiev seek to turn the world upside down all at once.
In his speech, the President of Fidesz responded to the retirement from politics of DK President-former Prime Minister Ferenc Gyurcsány, describing this as the victory of national politics over the post-communist era, “the Left remasked from the communists.” He said “Ferenc Gyurcsány skipped off, allegedly because he himself did not honour Hungary with unfolding every last detail of the truth.” He added that “we are, however, a chivalrous nation, we believe in women and believe women, and so we accept the announcement also from Madam Klára.”
He stressed that he was “no more,” had “vanished in the haze,” the leader of the Left who “led the Hungarians by the nose,” who lured the unsuspecting into foreign currency loans, who took away the 13th monthly salary and pension, who brought the IMF onto Hungary’s neck, and who “had the eyes of our peacefully protesting fellow comrades-in-arms shot out.” There is justice after all, he observed.
He said another amusing news item of “today’s cheerful Sunday” is that [the opposition party] Momentum, too, had gone under, having decided “in a brave and heroic fashion” not to stand in the next elections. He described Momentum as “dream killers” who destroyed the dream of the Hungarians of a hundred years to host an Olympiad, and took the view that the party was indeed nothing more than a mere moment, “a brief footnote” in the history of Hungarian politics. “God doesn’t beat with a stick – as we say – and we should be grateful to Him for having done the job for us,” he observed.
Mr Orbán also spoke about the fact that [the opposition party] Jobbik, too, was “teetering on the edge of its grave.” He said it is only right and just that “those who are prepared to do anything for power and money, including even teaming up with Gyurcsány, will end up like Jobbik.” He added that a traitor would only ever remain a traitor, and would get what they deserved. “Hungary is no country for Judas,” he remarked.
At the end of his speech, Mr Orbán asked the attendees of the Fight Club event not to forget that they continued to believe in the strength of love and unity, that they served a just cause, and that their fight was a good one. He told his audience that he was ready to lead them in this digital fight as well.
“Unity in important things, freedom in issues of secondary importance, love in everything. We are big, we are many, we are strong, and we will win,” Mr Orbán stated.
