In connection with the event, Fidesz MEP Kinga Gal wrote in her post that today’s gathering will strengthen our fight for a Europe built on strong nation-states.
In June, Prime Minister Viktor Orban endorsed the Patriots Manifesto, which was co-signed in Vienna alongside Herbert Kickl, the leader of Austria’s Freedom Party (FPO), and former Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babis, chairman of the ANO party. Back then, during a press briefing dubbed "Patriots for Europe", Mr. Orban emphasized the need to reform European politics, stating that Europe is on the brink of a new era.
In her post today, Ms. Gal noted that over sixty MEPs are expected to arrive in Budapest.
