“We did not fight the Communists to find [ourselves] in 1984!” wrote Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán on X. He accused Brussels of creating an Orwellian world, citing examples such as the European Peace Fund being used for weapons procurement and the Media Freedom Act aimed at controlling the media. Orbán went on: “Another anti-freedom proposal from Brussels: establishing full control over the media. We Central Europeans have seen such things in the past. They called it Cominform and Reichspressekammer. Never again!”
