Has anyone ever been reimbursed by @AmericanAir ? I've been waiting two months because of an unexpected layover in #Chicago (mechanical). Despite repeated attempts still nothing. Even their AI #Chatbots told me not to give up hope. But I am.

Let's get something straight: HU does not tie the question of EU funds to other issues. We hold principled views on SWE-FIN NATO membership (we support it), on global minimum tax (we're against it) and on sanctions (we're against them). All of this has nothing to do w/ EU funds.

In response to the stop in oil transfer through the Druzhba pipeline and the missile hitting territory of Poland, @PM_ViktorOrban has convened HU's Defense Council for 8 p.m.

@abouthungary So who took out a loan to buy #Russiangas? Which country in the EU can't pay for gas from #Gasprom? Who had to renegotiate their payment schedule with the Russians? And which #EU government ran out of money and doesn't pay its bills until 2023? #1 answer: #Hungary

Minister Varga said in Brussels on Tuesday, after a meeting with his EU counterparts, that Hungary will not support that form of aid “because it has bad experiences with the EU taking out loans.” buff.ly/3UnPuT4

@zoltanspox I think #Orban remains the biggest threat to Hungarians. Why is inflation so bad in Hungary but in other EU countries? Seems HU economic policy is the real problem.

Gov't decision: New caps introduced on price of eggs and potatoes. While the sanctions remain the greatest threat to HU's economy, gov't aims to halve inflation by end of 2023.

@KatalinNovakMP Hopefully one day Hungarians will also have the chance to have a free and fair election. How many Brazilians beyond the borders voted?

@zoltanspox @PM_ViktorOrban Oh.. Contacts with Russia? A totally reliable supplier. And what happens if the pipeline in Ukraine gets bombed? Manufacturers will not invest in Hungary if Russia is a supplier. Time to actually diversity and end all energy cooperation with Russia.

In his radio interview this morning, @PM_ViktorOrban warned that there may not be enough energy for many countries across Europe, but assured that this problem won't apply to HU after the gov secured multiple contracts to guarantee the country's gas supply abouthungary.hu/blog/prime-min…

@zoltanspox @Pabriks Orban's national interest is staying chums with Putin. Hungary's national interest is being a fully committed NATO member.

(1/2) Defense minister Szalay-Bobrovniczky responds to @pabriks who claimed that HU's refusal to provide military help to UKR amounts to "treason": I refuse to allow anyone to condemn or threaten Hungary. We have the right to represent our national interest, and that is peace.
