Orban Suspends Overseas Engagements Due to Flooding Conditions
Hungary's Leader Viktor Orban pushed back all his "global engagements" due to the flooding in Hungary. "As a result of the drastic weather conditions and continuous flooding in Hungary, I've delayed all my global engagements," Orban shared on the digital platform X. He failed to share more info.
Orban was initially planned to participate in a debate relating to the six-month Hungarian EU Council presidency program at the European Parliament in Strasbourg on Wednesday. The conservative politician frequently encounters intense criticism from the EU Parliament and the EU Commission.
Eastern and Central Europe have been battling extreme flooding since the weekend, mainly because of storm "Boris".
Orban had to cancel his appearance in the EU Council presidency debate due to the flooding in Hungary. Despite the flooding, Orban continues to face criticism from the EU Parliament and the EU Commission.
