The European people’s party has disconnected from Orban’s Fidesz party on a provisional basis. The reactions in the Hungarian media on the decision of yesterday fall out quite differently.
In Brussels, some observers rubbed their eyes in amazement, as Hungary’s head of government spoke of, you’ve even made the “good decision” to let the membership rest. Thus, the EPP has maintained “their unit”, Orbán cited in the conservative Hungarian daily newspaper “Magyar Nemzet”. In the same sheet of Fidesz MEP József Szájer said, “the maneuvers of the Left within the EPP” is not able to throw, the Hungarian government party, Fidesz, the conservative party group.

Both EPP, as Fidesz would have bought only to “time,” said András Bíró-Nagy, Director of the Think Tank Policy Solutions, based in Budapest and Brussels. It had always been clear that Fidesz wants to remain in the EPP, because as a member of an extreme right-wing group in the European Parliament, the Hungarians would only be a “loud roaring minority”.
“The peacock dance is over”

The “hazard game of Fidesz”, the threat to the country, have reached a new level, said Márton Gyöngyösi, Vice-Chairman of the extreme-right Jobbik in a news release. Viktor Orbán is behaving “like a hysterical child” and poses a threat with its short-term interests of power, even the EU membership of Hungary, the Jobbik representative.
