A story about how the Prime Minister of Hungary, Viktor Orbán, attacks political opponents, judges, the media, and non-governmental organizations, calling them "parasites," starting with a quote from a government leader: "We know that the enemies of the nation do not simply withdraw; they will corrosively harm it, like parasites; never forget that we must not just defeat them, we must destroy them." He spoke at a rally dedicated to the 30th anniversary of his ruling party.
It should be further noted that Orbán's critics assert that his attacks on the opposition and everything he calls "the international forces" are becoming increasingly aggressive. The Prime Minister also accused Norway of allowing that this Scandinavian country supports these non-governmental organizations. Criticism was voiced by judges who were precisely the target of Orbán's rhetoric: "It cannot be that contemporary judicial power stands on the edge of such a notion of justice," representatives of the Hungarian judges' association stated.
In this way, the words of the Prime Minister of Hungary caused a stir among the opposition, judges, and society and became a reason for discussions within the country and beyond its borders.
