The EPP President Joseph Daul told German newspaper Die Welt that the expulsion of Hungary’s Fidesz party is on the agenda of the organisation’s March 20 meeting in Brussels.
It comes after twelve EPP (European People’s Party ) member parties from nine countries requested the exclusion or suspension of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s ruling party.
On Monday, Manfred Weber, the top conservative candidate for the upcoming EU elections, told another German newspaper, Bild, that Orban needed to stop his anti-EU rhetoric if he wanted his party to remain, accusing him of distorting the truth about immigration into the bloc.
