At the press conference after the Summit of the European Political Community that was held in Hungary, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has called for European leaders to take more responsibility to stop the war in Ukraine.
In his speech, Orban was clear and direct when he said that peace is needed in Europe and that for this they cannot always expect the help of the United States of America.
"We have found common ground by saying that we must react to the elections in the USA, we must know that there are major changes. We agreed that we want peace as soon as possible in Europe. It was agreed that Europe should take more responsibility to ensure its security. We cannot expect the Americans to protect us", Orban said at the joint press conference with Prime Minister Edi Rama.
Orban emphasized that at the summit of the European Political Community it was also agreed that the EU should be more active in issues that concern Europe, one of which is immigration.
"Also, it was agreed that Europe should remain an active actor in the negotiations for the future, this will determine the future of Europe. There is a plenary meeting at such summits and there are also special working sessions. We participate in the work of these meetings. We had a session on security, the economy, and also another one that focused on immigration issues. For a long time now I see that this issue is quite crucial for opposing views, in fact it is straining our systems. I found out today that there is an obstacle to the goal of making changes in the political sphere, and we need to address this and in our profession it is called activism. There must be decisions for our governments. Hungary has always been against judicial activism. I don't think we can stop immigration if we don't properly approach the decisions in force", said the Prime Minister of Hungary, who currently holds the next Presidency of the EU.
Prime Minister Orban emphasized that the next summit of the European Political Community will be held in Tirana under the patronage of Prime Minister Edi Rama.
