Peter Mađar: I know what the Orban regime's ties are with Vučić, the citizens of Serbia draw strength from our elections

The Hungarian government, in which Tisa will have a majority, will investigate the alleged attempted attack on the gas pipeline near Kanjiža, said the winner of yesterday's Hungarian elections and Tisa leader Peter Magyar.

Responding to N1's question, he said that it was important to him that relations between Serbia and Hungary remain good, primarily because of the Hungarians in Vojvodina, although he assumed who was "the godfather" of the great friendship between Aleksandar Vučić and Viktor Orban, as well as Robert Fico. He added that he did not want to interfere in Serbia's internal affairs, but that he could tell the people of Serbia to "draw strength from yesterday's elections in Hungary."

During the election campaign, an action that resembled a so-called "false flag" operation took place on Easter Sunday, when an alleged attempt to attack a gas pipeline was planned, which Prime Minister Viktor Orban had already spoken about a week earlier, announcing that something like that would happen, recalled Peter Mađar.

"So, I can say that it was done rather clumsily, and it was clear that the organizers backed out of it and did not go as far as their superiors from Russia and Viktor Orban expected. I think they did the right thing, because the Tisza government will investigate what exactly happened, whether there was a real danger - because it is possible that there was. But if there was a real danger, then the prime minister should be running the country, not playing in a play like Viktor Orban on Easter Sunday, who flew in a helicopter and gathered the entire Hungarian propaganda in hard hats and uniforms to 'fear' together," he told N1.

In such a situation, the prime minister must guarantee the country's security, the Hungarian added.

"The citizens of Hungary, like the citizens of Serbia, rightly expect their leadership to ensure security, development and peace. Under the government of Tisa, there will be order, peace, security and development in Hungary - that is what I can say," he said.

"I would be very happy to meet with the Serbian leadership," added Peter Magjar.

"I know exactly what is happening in Serbia, and I know what connections existed, exist and may exist between Orban's government and Serbia led by (Aleksandar) Vučić, just as I know what connections exist between Robert Fico's Slovakia and Viktor Orban, and I know roughly who is behind these relations, who is the 'godfather' of these great friendships," he added.

However, regardless of that, for the sake of Hungarians living in Serbia, it is very important for Budapest that relations between Serbia and Hungary, which can currently be considered good, remain so, and do not depend on individuals, the Hungarian said.

"I believe that this is in the interest of both the current Serbian leadership and the Hungarians living in Serbia, as well as our interest. I am open to cooperation, regardless of the fact that we probably think differently about the world in many ways than President Vučić or the Serbian leadership. However, the friendship of our peoples and the existing good relations are very important to us. I can say that we will not interfere in the internal affairs of other countries. I see for myself what the protests are like and how the authorities treat them," he said, according to N1.

He noticed that, as he says, "similarly to Hungary, independent media in Serbia are in a very difficult situation."

"What I can say to the Serbian people, without interfering in their internal affairs, is that they should draw strength from yesterday's elections in Hungary. I also say this to many other countries where people are in a difficult situation, where there is a so-called hybrid regime, that is, where there is no full rule of law: it is possible, it is truly possible if people come together. We Hungarians have experienced this many times throughout history. If we unite, we can progress even in the most difficult circumstances and achieve success. Yesterday was exactly that - we showed that despite all the obstacles and the international support that Viktor Orban had, from practically the entire global political elite - the Russian president, the American president, the Chinese president, the Turkish president, the Israeli prime minister, as well as many other leaders like Vučić and Robert Fico - the Hungarian people said that the history of Hungary is written by Hungarians in Hungary, and the Hungarian people won," the Hungarian said.

Despite all that, he says, he is happy to meet and talk, to be present and to collaborate, he added.

"And I will do the same with the Alliance of Vojvodina Hungarians, despite the fact that they fully supported Viktor Orban's campaign, contrary to the views of many Vojvodina Hungarians who said they wanted to decide for themselves who to vote for. We thank all Vojvodina Hungarians who voted for us, but I can say to all Hungarians, including those abroad, that they can count on the TISA government. They will receive the same support as before, they will retain dual citizenship and the right to vote, but the money they received will no longer be largely embezzled by people close to Viktor Orban, but will actually reach Hungarians - whether in Vojvodina, Transylvania, or Romania," he told the diaspora.
