An independent political observer has reservations about the latest opinion poll which suggests that Fidesz lost 10 percentage points from its voting base, while a pro-government pundit calls these data manipulated.
Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, in a radio interview on Friday, said freedom of speech was “in bad shape” in Western Europe. “In liberal societies, the institutions shaping public opinion – the media, universities, research institutions, foundations and politicians – have become homogenous, and say more or less the same thing.”
Ruling Fidesz has launched an “outdoor” campaign of putting out billboards and distributing leaflets in preparation for the upcoming European parliamentary and municipal elections, the communications director of the party said in a video on Facebook on Sunday.
Hungary and the Dominican Republic have formed “an alliance to protect their citizens against the hazards of illegal migration” in the face of “hypocritical international pressure”, the foreign minister said in Santo Domingo on Thursday.
