Several conservative institutes complained in a strong letter to the European Commission that their opinion was completely ignored in the preparation of the rule of law report on our country. The board's attention was also drawn to the unfortunate circumstance that the so-called country visit was led by a well-known biased lawyer, Gábor Magyar, Magyar Nemzet reports.
The chapter on Hungary in the rule of law report commissioned by the European Commission is arbitrary, biased and discriminatory. The heads of several right-wing, conservative think tanks drew the committee's attention to this in a rather firm letter.
Miklós Szánthó, director of the Fundamental Rights Center, Sámuel Ágoston Mráz and Levente Bánk Boros, heads of the Nézőpont Institute, Bence Ákos Gát, director of communication and external relations of the Danube Institute, and Csaba Faragó et al. The document written by Zoltán Lomnici, head of foreign affairs and legal expert of the Századvég Foundation, states that although many Hungarian research institutes and NGOs (non-governmental organizations) were heard, the opinions and observations of organizations that stand on the ground of Christianity and national sovereignty were practically completely ignored. left out. The signatories of the letter emphasized that this happened in the same way in the case of previous versions of the report in the last three years.
According to the conviction of the signatories, it can be concluded from the methodological and structural errors that they decided in advance what the conclusion of the rule of law reports about our country should be.
"The European Commission selects the various opinions in the way it likes, which suggests that some organizations are only asked in order to tick off this part of the procedure and to create the appearance of careful consideration," they said in the letter. The signatories of the document also mentioned that
Gábor Magyar, entrusted with leading the Brussels delegation gathering material for the report, regularly makes biased criticisms of the government, which is why they assume a conflict of interest in connection with the lawyer's visit leader activities.
As it was recalled, in an interview a few years ago, Magyar spoke about the fact that he considered liquidating his law practice only because he considered that this step would also weaken the government's legitimacy. "I don't want to be an extra in this drama, I'd rather be a theater critic," Gábor Magyar told the Magyar Ügyvéd blog in October 2017.
Since the pandemic, however, the country visit required to prepare the report has practically been limited to conversations held on video conferences to this day.
Magyar Nemzet has already covered the career and affairs of Gábor Magyar in several voluminous articles, from which it became clear that in the person of the lawyer, a member of the Soros network was actually in a key position in Brussels regarding the assessment of the state of the rule of law in Hungary.
