MEPs push to strip Hungary’s veto as Orbán defies EU strategy on Ukraine

I agree, but it seems there's no group of politicians willing to invoke article 7 when it comes to Hungary.
Well there are clearly some their names are in the article at the top of the thread. It's more a question of how many.
It's been squibbed for years, maybe now Europe has recognised the other threats they'll deal with this 5th columnist along the way.

Oh yeah, my bad. I was thinking about the past not the present.

It requires unanimity of the other members, Hungary was protected by PiS in Poland (who are also corrupt authoritarians) until they were voted out, there was then a short window of a couple of months where the EU squibbed their chance, then Slovakia replaced their chad Prez with Fico who is also a corrupt authoritarian and the opportunity was lost.
What they can do is get all the preparatory stuff done and wait to see if Slovakia replace Fico, or (very unlikely but not impossible) the challenger to Orban manages to win. If neither happens then giving Fico a bigger bribe than Putin does is the last resort.
Don't take Meloni for granted.

Oh no. The EU will lose 1 out of dozens of members which is literally not a democracy anymore, instead of actually upholding its values of democracy

Your timeline doesn't work:
- the Morawiecki II government was in office until November 27, 2023
- the Fico IV government was in office from October 25, 2023
There was an overlap rather than a gap.
