Sabatini report running into trouble.

The Sabatini report accused Hungary of activities contrary to the values of the EU. In reality, the whole hocus pocus is in retaliation for Hungary resisting Brussels-mandated quotas to take in Muslim 'refugees.' The matter has been referred to one of the leading Councils of the EU presumably for voting on sanctions.

Resistance to this procedure is growing. First, the EU founding documents require a two-thirds vote to implement. The resolution received less than two thirds of the vote because of abstentions. However, the abstentions were disregarded and the two thirds was calculated based on the number of those voted YES or NO. Hungary is appealing the decision to an EU Court.

But, the Court's decision may be mute. The vote for sanctions must be unanimous and Poland declared right away that they will veto sanctions. Poland has now been joined by Bulgaria and other countries are considering joining those two. Even before the Sabatini report,  Hungary promised to veto sanctions on Poland because of their new law to purge the Communist-appointed judges left over from the Commie regime.  Perhaps the Sabatini report's real aim is to prevent Hungary from vetoing the Eu attempting to spare the Commie judges in Poland. The sanctions sought against Hungary includes Hungary's voting rights in the EU.
