Brussels wants to oust Hungary's national government which pursues an independent policy which they find intolerable and plant a puppet government in the country, Prime Minister Viktor Orban said in a speech of commemoration in Budapest's Millenaris Park on Wednesday, marking the 68th anniversary of the 1956 revolution and freedom fight.
Leader of the opposition Tisza Party Peter Magyar on Tuesday accused ruling Fidesz of having "cheated" Hungarians by "preaching" about a rural, family and child-friendly, bourgeois Hungary while making the country "the poorest and most corrupt country in the European Union".
Peter Magyar, the leader of the opposition Tisza party, on Friday said Prime Minister Viktor Orban was like the captain of the Titanic, "driving the ship into an iceberg then lying to the passengers about how he'll steer it in their interest."
The opposition Socialist Party elected Imre Komjathi as its leader at the party's congress on Saturday.
