    Of course Hungary can get out. That is not the problem. The problem is that they are landlocked and they wouldn’t get any advantage from leaving.

    How is it phantasy that Hungary wouldn’t get embargoed Russian products, even if they left? How could they get them?

      So Hungary has advantages in being in!? That’s not what the PM is saying!!!

      Don’t play the victim pal. Make it make sense.

        That’s a different discussion. I came for the wordplay on doors.

        The PM is saying that the EU is a threat. If you want my input on that tell me where you stand and what doesn’t make sense to you.
