European Parliament
Kristiina Ojuland  (ALDE ).
– Mr President, I voted in favour of the resolution on the recent political developments in Hungary, for the reasons that I already outlined in the statement that was submitted after the debate. It was pivotal that the situation in Hungary was discussed in the European Parliament. When the core values of the European Union are at stake in any Member State, then it cannot be considered as an internal affair of the country. On the contrary, it then concerns all of us.
The European Parliament has adopted a strong resolution and I expect Mr Orbán to take it into account when making efforts to comply with the recommendations, objections and demands of the European Commission, the Council of Europe and the Venice Commission.
