Hungary far-right MP slams Israeli presence in parliament

Budapest – A far-right Jobbik deputy called publicly for the resignation of a fellow MP who claimed to have an Israeli citizenship.

 

At a press conference, Jobbik deputy Elod Novak said it was unacceptable that Katalin Ertsey, a deputy of the small opposition party LMP, had kept her dual Hungarian-Israeli citizenship secret and called for her resignation.

 

This was why the Hungarian parliament made so many decisions that were favorable to the Israel, he added, without giving any examples.

 

Jobbik has long been critical of the government’s stance, saying it sided too much with Israel.
