      Although I agree sentimentally, I would believe that if they leave there is an even smaller chance for them to dig themselves out of this semi-dictatorship.

          You’re probably right. I also don’t think, Orban wants to leave EU since then he can no longer blame EU for interior problems and grab EU money for his entourage. Nevertheless, I think, the EU needs to do something about being held hostage by Orban and other right winged cowards (I hope Poland successfully did get rid of PiS government).
