  1.  @badluck5647  Hungary biggest problem is backsliding on so many things and it's been doing so for some time now, the UK like many have said isn't in the EU any more, but even when they did bend the rules, it didn't take long to pull them back into line, as for Poland, the Polish people voted in a pro EU government that's set out to reverse a lot of the policies of the last government. Hungary is the only one that's been going down this authoritarian path for quite some time now and doesn't look like the people or the government have the will to turn things around, because of that, I think the EU and its members need to find a way to kick Hungary out of the EU, after all, it's not like the people of Hungary have not had a chance to change course, they choose not to take it, that makes Hungary incompatible with EU and it's other members ideals and it's clear to see with how close the country wants to be with Russia.

  2. Because staying in the EU and leveraging it's veto is the only real power it's got, leaving the EU would make Hungary irrelevant, or worse yet, Russia's new play thing lol.

  3. Orban is making Hungary relations with Ukraine colder, considering that if Ukraine does join the EU at some point and becomes modernise, it doesn't seem wise for Hungary to get on the wrong side of them, because they will very likely remember this and longer term, Ukraine has far more potential than Hungary does. I know Orban is doing all this because he wants that money from the EU, but giving money under blackmail is never a good idea, they'll keep demanding more in the future and worse yet, other EU countries could play the same game which would paralyse the EU. There's no doubt in my mind that the EU and its members have to find a way to kick Hungary out of the EU, they are not a team player that corporates any more, it's all about selfish means now from Hungary, which goes against everything the EU is. Seriously, EU, stop messing about and try and find a way to kick them out, which might be easier to do with the shift to a pro EU government in Poland, in the end, kicking Hungary out is the only way they will learn, after all, it's not like the people in Hungary have not had many chances to kick Hungary out, let Russia have their fun with them and see how well that works out, in the end, Hungary just isn't worth it any more and the quicker the EU and its members wake up and realise that, the better. Whatever the EU does, don't give Hungary any of those funds, they are asking for trouble in the future if they do give in to Hungary demands, save that money for Ukraine. Also, I'm starting to wonder if the EU members should try to shift powers towards the Euro Zone, they are the vast bulk of the EU block after all and they are more likely to be more comparative than none Euro Zone countries, after all, countries that enter the EU but are at arms length are more likely to not want to integrate, either way, the EU and its members need to grow a spine and start standing up to these countries that break the rules, all it does by giving in to them is make the EU look weak and likely will cause more problems down the road.

  4. I wouldn't really call this special treatment, after all, it's still a long way to go before Ukraine can join the EU, so there's a lot of work ahead of them. But closing up shop, won't do the moral and war effect in Ukraine any favours, which is probably what Orban wants, has he seems to be a puppet of Putin.
