"Today I thought that we had changed the order of business, and from the tone and arguments I thought we had decided to talk about President Assad’s Syria rather than a European Member State. I have heard talk about citizens who are afraid to live in Hungary, about a ‘black plague’ knocking on the doors of the EU, about a constitution that is a knife to the throat of minorities, and more. Ladies and gentlemen, we are not talking about Venezuela here. I have seen Mr Orbán, a prime minister, who has come to explain his version to us, and says he will comply with whatever the EU decides. We have to believe him because he has already done so with the law on the mass media. So why all this fuss? Perhaps not because we are really that interested in the institutional and constitutional aspects of the affair, but because we do not share Mr Orbán’s political choices regarding the family, the state and opposing strong powers, and the influence of the banks on political decisions. We must be very careful. We do not have the right to interfere with the internal affairs of the Hungarian people. All we can do is check compliance with the Treaties, and I think this is what Mr Orbán is here to do."@en1
