Orban stressed that the German authorities are working hard to abolish the unanimity principle and adopt the majority principle.

“We do not agree with this,” RIA Novosti quoted the Hungarian prime minister as saying.

Orban explained that in this way, larger countries will be able to promote their foreign policy ideas, and for Hungary this will cause "abandonment of a significant part of sovereignty."

On October 15, Scholz announced the need to reform and expand the European Union, which would include, in particular, the gradual abolition of the principle of unanimity in decision-making in foreign policy.
