The final move of the Hungarian prime minister: Open Society offices in Budapest closed. They will move first to Vienna and then to Berlin
Of Ivan French
Viktor Orban move from words to deeds. This morning in Budapest the Hungarian authorities witnessed the closure of the offices of the Open Society in George Soros.
A move that the Hungarian prime minister had widely announced and hoped for already in the recent electoral campaign and which is part of his strategy to fight the liberal and globalist politics that has always been pursued by the American philanthropist and billionaire (but of Hungarian origins). Particularly in the sights of the government of Budapest there are measures reiterated over the years in favor of migrants, minorities and for the development of civil rights.
“The fight against Soros, his liberal ideology, its initiatives on migrants, will continue wherever the headquarters of its foundation are – Orban said on Hungarian public radio – You will understand that I will not cry over their decision to close the office in our capital”.
The government majority's next step is to pass a new law in Parliament that further hinders Open Society activities in the country, through a tax of 25 percent on every donation received from abroad by NGOs that help migrants. The evaluation will be entrusted to the Ministry of the Interior, which may prohibit them if they represent a risk to national security.
In the meantime, the offices in the Hungarian capital will move to Vienna, in Austria, and at a later time a Berlin.
