Austria advocated depriving Hungary of the right to vote in the EU

Austria backed Belgium's call to continue the process of stripping Hungary of its voting rights, another sign of Budapest's frustration ahead of the start of its six-month presidency of the EU Council in July. About this reported the RBC-Ukraine with reference to Politico.

"We expect that all 27 EU members will fully comply with the principles on which our common Union is based," said the representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Austria, Viktor Orbanned.

He noted that this is especially relevant for the future presidency of the EU.

"Based on this, we support a strict continuation of the Article 7 procedure against Hungary," Orbanned stressed.

Earlier, Belgium proposed to the member states of the European Union to deprive Hungary of the right to vote in the European Union. Brussels wants to apply the no-confidence procedure against Budapest under Article 7 of the Treaty on the European Union.
