Barbarism has taken root in Sweden in consequence of weak governance

"The abandonment of traditional values, the neglect of common sense, and weak governance have led to barbarism taking root in the home of one of Europe's greatest nations, in Sweden" Prime Minister Viktor Orbán wrote on X on Monday.

The Hungarian Prime Minister wrote: Criminal gangs are using underage girls as instruments of killing unpunished.

"The Swedish government lectures us about the rule of law. Meanwhile, according to an article by Die Welt, criminal networks are exploiting Swedish children as killers, knowing the system won't convict. A country once known for order & safety is now collapsing: over 280 underage girls arrested for murder, families living in fear. It's heartbreaking. The Swedish people deserve better!" Mr Orbán wrote.

In a video attached to the post on X, Mr Orbán said "The news of the week is that in Sweden 284 underage girls were arrested for murder […]. The mafia used them to shoot their victims in the head because they can't be convicted."

"This is how a country collapses, every rule, all order breaks down, and what remains is barbarism. It is no longer about them messing something up, they have checked out of civilisation," the Prime Minister said.

"The mission of the rule of law is to ensure the safety of our people. Where underage girls are systematically used for murder, the rule of law is dead," Mr Orbán wrote. "Sweden is our friend, and the Swedish people are a great and noble nation. We are worried for you! God bless Sweden!"
