Hungary blames EU for economic crisis

“It must be said: The crisis is in fact Brussels’ crisis,” Prime Minister Victor Orban told thousands of supporters during a visit to the prominent Hungarian minority in neighbouring Romania on Saturday.

“Brussels is the main obstacle to finding ways to resolve the economic problems,” Orban said in Baile Tusnad, 230 kilometres north of Bucharest.

The Hungarian leader further scoffed at the bloc’s paradoxical concerns about democracy and peace while Europeans are faced with tough austerity measures aimed at cutting sovereign debts, besides unprecedented unemployment.

“Brussels wastes weeks defining the size of chicken cages, forcing farmers to put toys in pigsties, worrying that the peace of a goose’s soul is an important European issue while hundreds of thousands of citizens lose their jobs, watch their financial system collapse and feel it is getting harder and harder to survive,” he said.

Orban also lashed out at the European Union’s cluelessness in the debt crisis.
