On the question of joining one of the political groups in the European Parliament, Tamas Deutsch said that one day after the elections, everyone will know the results. The consultations, discussions and negotiations that are currently taking place will then gain momentum. 

I believe that this is the long-awaited chance and opportunity that can bring about the right wing's strengthening, a right-wing advance, and even a right-wing sovereignist breakthrough in the European Parliament,

he said, adding that "if this chance translates into reality, we will be able to negotiate with our partners with such success behind us".

According to their expectation, they will work in a large right-wing conservative sovereignist group in the new European Parliament,

the MEP stressed.

Citizens should see clearly that more than half a decade is coming to an end, during which the Brussels bureaucracy and its key institution, 

the European Commission, has been trying to find cases of corruption in every member state in a bid to divert attention from the institutionalized, systemic corruption that pervades the Brussels bureaucracy, 

Tamas Deutsch pointed out, adding that the biggest corruption in the European Union can be found in Brussels.

The lead candidate for the EP list of the governing parties cited as an example the case of European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, who concluded a deal worth billions of euros for the purchase of Covid vaccines in an exchange of private text messages with a major pharmaceutical company.

"While they constantly demand ever more complicated and bureaucratic public procurement rules from us and from others, they can do this without any problem," Tamas Deutsch pointed out. He added 

Sending a text message seems to be the progressive way of procurement in the 21st century (...) this is the way to procure goods. This raises the suspicion of some incredibly serious corruption. Draining the swamp of corruption is one of the first steps in effecting change in Brussels

Speaking about Peter Magyar, a former government insider turned critic, Tamas Deutsch sent the message that "you should consult your physician or pharmacist".

More seriously, the situation is clearer than daylight, there is a man with left-wing views and ideas, one of the dollar Left, who has himself said that he is a liberal, leftist-liberal person,

the Fidesz MEP pointed out, noting that this is not an accusation, he is truly a left-wing politician.

He reuses, reads and repeats all of ex-prime ministerial candidate Peter Marki-Zay's outdated, terrible left-wing texts, in the complete absence of any thoughts of his own. On the other hand, his personality, his behavior so far, fits in with the fact that

this dollar Left is aggressive.

Tamas Deutsch explained.
