Szijjarto: 'Soros empire' upping pressure on Hungary

The Hungarian government will resist an expectedly growing international pressure in the wake of Hungary's recent election, Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said on Thursday. Ruling Fidesz's election victory, one of "three landslide wins in eight years", reflects "the strongest and clearest political will in Europe" expressed by Hungary's voters, Szijjarto told reporters. The election made it clear "what future the government's supporters voted for and what kind of future opponents wish to see", he added. "Brussels, however, continues to disregard the Hungarian people and their will," Szijjarto insisted. The European Parliament's civil rights committee (LIBE) is scheduled to present "the Soros Report" on Hungary on Thursday, Szijjarto said. "It has taken Brussels just four days from the election to launch another attack on Hungary," he added.
