Orbán's party is excluded from the EPP

the Battle between Viktor Orbán and other leaders of the EPP, which brings together the christian democrats and the conservatives, have taken a break. At a meeting in Brussels voted in favour a clear majority of EPP members in order to immediately take away from the State its rights. Of the 194 members voted 190 for a shutdown.

In a document, that the DN have received, it appears that there is about the right to participate in meetings, the right to vote and the right to propose candidates to the different positions of the EPP.

But only after a monitoring committee consisting of, among others, Herman Van Rompuy, former president of the European council, the Hungarian party started to follow the basic values of the EPP decided at its latest congress.

Viktor Orbán's fate is to a large extent expected. Before the meeting began, said the German CDU's leader, Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer of confidence for Orbán and Fidesz was exhausted.

"as long as not Fidesz fully restore confidence, it can not be a normal membership," said Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer, the news agency Reuters.

According to a source from within the meeting she developed its reasoning where:

– the EPP is a large family and it has made us strong. But the most important thing we have in common is confidence, and that we all understand the traditional principles and values, " said Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer.

he and the party accepts the suspension, but still want to stay in the EPP. He describes partigruppen as a broad political spectrum where liberals and högerkonservativa christians gather.

" The last few weeks have 13 left-wing liberal parties proposed to Fidesz should be excluded. This would allow the EPP to a small, leftist organization, " says Viktor Orbán.

Among the 13 parties are the Swedish KD and M.

will the Fidesz to set up their own evaluation committee to supplement Van Rompuy.

– What happens if our committee and their committee did not come to the same conclusions in their respective statements, I do not want to speculate, " says Orbán.

at the meeting in Brussels was also the christian democrat leader Ebba Busch Thor.

”I am happy that the EPP has agreed on the decision on the temporary shutdown, even if the Christian democrats since we initiated this process had wanted to go further. Some values are not selectable, and when the party does not comply with the basic values of democracy and the rule of law, we need to select. This is a step in the right direction,” she writes in a press release.

among others, the EU parliamentarian Gunnar Hökmark.

" He is beyond all that is acceptable. Above all, the germans retained around is what to do in order to not benefit the extreme forces. For when He leaves us, leaving also the Fidesz members of our group and then there will be 10-12 pieces more in another group. It is undoubtedly negative, said Hökmark to the DN prior to the meeting.

Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer, the leader of the German christian democrats, CDU, welcomes the decision to turn off the Fidesz, but also comes with a caveat.

– Just as before, there is a doubt whether the party share the understanding of the common values on which the EPP parts and if future cooperation is possible on the basics, " she says, according to the German magazine Der Spiegel.

Viktor Orbán has long been in conflict with large parts of the EPP. It has been concerned with how the Hungarian government limiting freedom of the press, academic freedom and undermine the independence of the judiciary.

criticized a regeringskampanj against EUROPEAN commission president Jean-Claude Juncker. In the has Juncker been regarded as equal with philanthropist and financier George Soros, and together they conspire to open Europe's borders to migrants.
