Viktor Orbán, the powerful Prime Minister of Hungary, has been making every effort at home to build an image as an European troublemaker. Angry at the EU’s criticism of his constitutional and financial reforms, he has lost no opportunity to attack the EU for interferingin the country’s domestic affairs.
