A portrait of Justice Minister Judit Varga appeared on Wednesday in the French conservative daily Le Figaro, created by the paper's foreign policy journalist, Anne Rovan. The article describes the career of the head of department and writes about:
the young lady with a law degree, who previously worked as an assistant in the European Parliament, is now defending Viktor Orbán's nationalist ideology tooth and nail in Brussels.
According to the author of the article, Judit Varga is the one who handles the rule of law file in Hungary on a daily basis, as well as the relations between her country and the European institutions on this issue. 41-year-old Judit Varga, who has been a minister for almost three years, received a customized portfolio from Viktor Orbán, says Anne Rovan.
The minister is responsible for both justice and European Union affairs.
He is a fighter, the article reads, referring to an EU diplomat who had previously seen him at work at the ministerial summit in Brussels.
According to the author, Judit Varga shares all the positions of the Hungarian Prime Minister, with whom she was also waiting for the results after the elections.
The minister, who regularly posts photos of her three children and her husband on social media, has also doggedly defended the child protection law in Brussels, which was criticized by almost all European leaders at a memorable summit. The author of the conservative paper reminds us:
According to Judit Varga, the fight that Brussels would launch against Hungary is above all politically motivated.
"Because we don't have the same ideas as the mainstream, they attack us and it's shocking. So there is no equality." - the author quoted the Minister of Justice, who also criticizes the double standard prevailing in the EU, and in the meantime does not forget to criticize the member states that are the loudest against the excesses of the Hungarian rule of law.
Even in Luxembourg, a reform is underway to guarantee the independence of the judiciary, he added. According to the author, the minister also insists that "Brussels should rather strive for unity", since the EU must manage the war in Ukraine.
"This is not the position of the European Commission, which on Wednesday launched the first stage of the procedure that will probably deprive Hungary of billions of euros," writes the author, referring to the fact that on Wednesday the European Commission sent Hungary a written notification about the launch of the mechanism related to the rule of law , then also quotes Varga:
We will respond as we always have. I am sure we will have a respectful dialogue with the committee.
I am loyal to the nation and that is the most important thing for me.
