"The Hungarian people have a decision-making opportunity with which they can influence the fate of the whole of Europe," explained Judit Varga in relation to the fact that the political weight of our country has increased significantly, also thanks to the fact that the Hungarian government can represent Hungarian interests in Brussels with a very serious democratic mandate. , for example also in migration policy.
