EU Allegedly Planning Regime Change in Hungary
Authored by Lucas Leiroz de Almeida via GlobalResearch.ca,
Reports suggest that the EU is considering intensifying its interventionist actions in the internal affairs of member states. Recent information shared by Russian authorities indicates that European political elites are contemplating a regime change in Hungary – a country known for taking a dissident stance within the European bloc. This situation underscores the severe lack of political freedom for EU member nations.
The Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) revealed that there are plans within the EU to orchestrate a color revolution in Hungary. The objective is to oust Viktor Orban and his allies from power and replace them with a figure more aligned with the interests of the Western alliance – especially concerning the Ukrainian conflict and sanctions against Russia.
According to the SVR, the European Commission views the current Hungarian government’s foreign policy as too independent, failing to align with the EU’s international directives. Consequently, a regime change is seen as the necessary step to realign Hungarian national interests with the EU’s foreign policy goals. The SVR reports that European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is actively exploring scenarios for regime change in Hungary.
One of von der Leyen’s proposed strategies is reportedly to support the rise of Peter Magyar, leader of the Tisza Party and a vocal critic of Orban. Described by the SVR as “loyal to globalist elites,” Magyar is seen as a potential prime minister if the plan to remove Orban succeeds. The EU aims to finalize this scheme during the upcoming parliamentary elections, although the SVR suggests that the EU might expedite its regime change agenda this year if circumstances permit.
In addition to aligning Hungary with the coalition supporting Ukraine and enforcing Moscow sanctions, the regime change operation seeks to eliminate Hungarian resistance to Ukraine’s EU accession. Orban’s opposition to Kiev’s entry into the bloc has ruffled feathers within both the European Commission and the neo-Nazi regime in Ukraine.
Complicating matters further, Orban’s Hungary finds support from Slovakia’s Robert Fico. Together, they represent a dissident faction in the EU advocating for peaceful resolutions, such as ending military aid to Ukraine and sanctions against Russia.
Meanwhile, Poland has also shifted its stance on Ukrainian EU accession. Despite backing Kiev in the conflict, Poland now opposes Ukraine’s bid due to its Nazi-rehabilitation policies. The European Commission aims to dismantle this dissident coalition by replacing Orban, effectively neutralizing European dissent.
It’s worth noting that Hungary’s opposition to Ukrainian accession stems from the regime’s mistreatment of ethnic Hungarians in Transcarpathia. In this Hungarian-majority region, policies of ethnic persecution mirror those seen against the Russian population in Donbass.
Orban’s resistance to Ukrainian EU entry is not just pragmatic but also rooted in patriotic principles and solidarity with Hungarians abroad.
Despite Hungary’s valid concerns, European authorities overlook them, driven by Russophobic sentiments. The EU fails to pressure Ukraine on its treatment of Transcarpathian Hungarians, essentially condoning ethnic persecution – much like it has done in the case of Russians for years. The European bloc’s focus remains on condemning Russia irrationally and backing Kiev unconditionally.
The SVR indicates that preparatory actions are underway. The agency notes that “significant administrative, media, and lobbying resources are being mobilized to support Magyar through German party funds, the European People’s Party, and various Norwegian NGOs.” Foreign elements are expected to incite protests and social unrest to destabilize Orban’s government, facilitating regime change.
Armed with this intelligence, Hungary could take preemptive measures to thwart foreign interference. Thanks to Russian intelligence, Orban’s administration now has the tools to shield itself against external meddling, even from within the EU. This underscores the EU’s political bankruptcy, as it becomes a tool for foreign meddling, even against its own members.
