Elene Khoshtaria: The idea of a united Europe first won in Moldova, now in Hungary - to turn it into a trend, it must also win here - lies burst like soap bubbles, while perseverance brings results

“The idea of a united Europe first won in Moldova, now in Hungary. To turn it into a trend, it must also win here,” wrote the leader of “Droa,” Elene Khoshtaria, commenting on the defeat of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán in the elections and the victory of the opposition party “Tisza.”

As Khoshtaria writes in her statement, lies eventually collapse, while perseverance yields results.

“Long live a European Hungary! Modern authoritarian regimes rely on two main things: solidarity and mutual support among regimes.

The West’s inertia and inaction. Autocratic regimes that support each other are becoming fewer and fewer, while the West is becoming increasingly active.

The idea of a united Europe first triumphed in Moldova, now in Hungary. To make it a trend, it must also prevail here. Lies burst like soap bubbles, while perseverance brings results. One thing we can truly learn from Hungary is that EU and NATO membership places limits on authoritarianism—something our young democracy needs so much. Until the end!
