Deutsche Welle and EuroNews reported the following:

9 October 2024

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban delivered a speech to the European Parliament on Wednesday as part of Hungary’s rotating presidency of the European Council.

The right-wing nationalist was greeted in Strasbourg, France, by protest over his increasingly authoritarian rule in his home country and his friendly relationship with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“The European Union needs to change, and I would like to convince you about that today,” Orban said, calling the current era the “most serious period” in the 27-member bloc’s history.

He said that the escalating conflict in the Middle East would prompt a “migration crisis” that might cause the Schengen open border system to “fall apart.”

“Our union needs to change, and the presidency wants to be the catalyst for this change,” he added, suggesting the bloc regularly hold migration summits.

Despite some jibes from left-wing lawmakers before he spoke, EU parliamentarians listened quietly to the speech. It was only toward the end, as a round of the antifascist anthem “Bella Ciao” broke out, that things began to get rowdy. …

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, who has told top EU officials toboycott meetings organized by the Hungarian presidency, slammed Orban after his remarks.

9 October 2024

Viktor Orbán and Ursula von der Leyen clashed head-on during a fiery debate at the European Parliament on Wednesday that saw both leaders outline opposing visions for Europe’s future and lay bare their strong dislike for each other. …

Orbán, whose country holds the rotating presidency of the Council of the EU, opened his nearly 30-minute-long speech by saying the EU “needs to change” because it faces “the most serious period” in its modern history.

The premier raised the alarm about the bloc’s economic stagnation and called for strong action to boost competitiveness and close the gap with the United States and China, in line with the findings of the Mario Draghi report presented in September.

He then assailed von der Leyen’s Green Deal for failing to consider “industrial policy” in its design, a grievance that has extended beyond conservative circles, and directly blamed the EU’s sluggish growth and high energy prices on the common strategy to “move away” from Russian fossil fuels in the aftermath of the Ukraine war. …

But while the premier played it relatively safe on the economy and climate, he drastically raised the debate’s temperature when he tackled the topic of irregular migration … “The facts speak for themselves,” …

As a solution, he proposed, the EU should focus on establishing “outside hotspots” in neighbouring countries to process asylum applications. Only those whose requests have been approved should be allowed into European territory, he argued.

“Without outside hotspots, we cannot protect Europeans from irregular migration,” he told MEPs. “Other solutions are, quite frankly, an illusion.”

The idea of offshoring migration procedures has gained traction in recent months, going from niche to mainstream. In May, 15 member states signed a letter pitching several proposals to advance the project, a clear sign of growing support. https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2024/10/09/viktor-orban-and-ursula-von-der-leyen-clash-in-fiery-debate-at-european-parliament

While many at Europe’s Parliament objected to Viktor Orban and his speech, the fact is that many within Europe want the migration policies changed.

For example, notice the following:

October 9, 2024

European Union (EU) leaders claim they wish to reform the bloc’s migration policies and speed up deportations, as major members call on the European Commission to enact new guidelines later this month. France and Germany, the largest countries in the bloc by population, have joined others in calling on the Commission, the EU’s unelected executive, to produce new guidelines by October 17 “for determined action at all levels to increase and speed up returns from the European Union.”

EU leaders are set to meet in Brussels, Belgium, next week and are pushing for a change in migration policy as anti-mass migration parties surge in polls and win elections across the EU. The most recent—and one of the most notable—was the election victory of the populist Freedom Party of Austria (FPOe), which not only advocates for “Fortress Austria” border controls but also for a policy of “remigration.”

A number of populists have proposed remigration, which could involve deporting illegals or even legal migrants who refuse to integrate into society. For the Sweden Democrats, who now have a role in the Swedish government, remigration could involve stripping criminal migrants of Swedish citizenship.

Some countries in Europe have tried to strengthen immigration measures on their own, with Germany enacting 6-month-long land border controls after several fatal mass stabbings involving Islamist-inspired migrants, despite being members of the EU’s open borders Schengen agreement. https://thenationalpulse.com/2024/10/09/europeans-may-finally-be-trying-to-speed-up-deportations/

Yes, the Europeans want to change immigration policies.

What about changing the EU itself?

The EuroNews article stated some of Viktor Orban’s economic proposals were “in line with the findings of the Mario Draghi report presented in September.”

Well, Mario Draghi basically also called for the EU to reorganize last month (see Call for Europe to unify and reorganize by Mario Draghi).

Even though they do not agree on a lot politically, even France’s President Emmanuel Macron seemed to call for a reorganization this past Spring. Notice a report:

EU in serious danger – Macron

The bloc is living through a crisis of democracy and could end up “dying,” the French president warns

26 May 2024

The EU is facing a record number of “external and internal enemies,” who pose an existential threat to the bloc, French President Emmanuel Macron has said, doubling down on a warning he’d given earlier, that “our Europe” could end up dying.

Macron made the remarks while speaking alongside Germany’s head of state, President Frank-Walter Steinmeier, on the first of his three-day state visit. The two attended the Festival of Democracy, held in Berlin’s government quarter, to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the country’s constitution.

“I think that we are experiencing a moment in our Europe which is existential because I really believe that our Europe can die,” Macron stated, referring to a keynote speech he’d delivered in April.

The French president urged a vote for pro-EU forces in the upcoming European elections, warning the bloc has “never had so many enemies inside and outside” as it has now. The purported internal enemies are apparently European nationalists, with their rise raising questions about democracy itself, Macron asserted. https://www.rt.com/news/598263-macron-eu-democracy-crisis/

Well, the time will come when Europe will reorganize:

12 “The ten horns which you saw are ten kings who have received no kingdom as yet, but they receive authority for one hour as kings with the beast. 13 These are of one mind, and they will give their power and authority to the beast. (Revelation 17:12-13)

So, the final Beast will arise with support of ten who will have been given power in a reorganization.

But it will not be a democracy after those reorganizations happen.

Could the European Union be the sixth king that now is, but is not? Related to that, we put out the following sermon:

1:13:56

European Union & 7 Kings of Revelation 17:10

Could the European Union be involved in biblical prophecies? If so, which ones? What did the EU form from? Did the little horn of Benelux grow larger towards the south and east as Daniel prophesied? What about the seven kings of Revelation 17:10? Could they be connected to the so-called ‘Holy Roman Empire’? What is the ‘Marian’ EU flag based upon? Might the seven kings be Justinian’s Imperial Restoration, Charlemagne’s Frankish Empire, the ‘Holy Roman Empire’ of Otto the Great, the Hohenstaufen Dynasty, the Habsburg Dynasty, the European Economic Community/European Union, and the Beast of the Sea of Revelation 13? What about Napoleon or Benito Mussolini/Adolf Hitler? Did Otto von Habsburg renounce his right to the title ‘Holy Roman Emperor’ in the same year that the European Economic Union (aka the Common Market) formed in 1958? Did the EEU last until the EU was formed in 1993? What about the beast that “was, and is not” and “now is’? What about the beast that “is also the eighth, and is of the seven”? What have Roman Catholic and Protestant scholars taught? What about Church of God groups and writers including Andrew Dugger and Herbert W. Armstrong? What are some of the religious connections between the Church of Rome and Europe? What about private prophecies related to the ‘Great Monarch’? Could those looking for the Great Monarch miss the Beast and Antichrist according to Roman Catholic writer Paul Thigpen? Could the final Antichrist be an antipope? Is the the Mediterranean Sea the sea that the Beast of Revelation 13 rises from? How does the EU resemble the ‘Holy Roman Empire’? Could the EU be the sixth king of Revelation 17:10? Might the United Nations be involved and support the rise of the seventh king? Is the EU setting the stage for the seventh king? Dr. Thiel addresses these matters and more.

Here is a link to the sermon video: European Union & 7 Kings of Revelation 17:10.

Now, even though EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen clashed with Viktor Orban today, she, too, has pushed for Europe to change, to reorganize.

Related to change and prophecy in Europe, we put together the following video on our Bible News Prophecy YouTube channel:

14:47

Europe to Expand and Reorganize?

In September 2023, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen gave her annual State of the European Union speech. It was a motivational speech to push Europeans to support bold moves for expansion, trade, and international influence. She also mentioned Europe’s Global Gateway project as well as her involvement in getting the G20 to go for the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor (IMEC). Several days after her speech, a report titled Sailing on High Seas: Reforming and Enlarging the EU for the 21st Century put out by Europeans from Germany and France, called for an overhaul of the European Union so that it could manage expanding to over 30 nations. Will Europe reorganize? What does the Bible teach in Revelation 17:12-13? Will this involve more than 10 or 11 currently existing nations? Will this end up being a dictatorship? Could any of this have to do with the coming ‘King of the North’ of Daniel 11? Could a Bavarian ‘strongman’ possibly be involved in the future? Could the year 2030 be relevant? Dr. Thiel and Steve Dupuie discuss these matters and more.

Here is a link to our video: Europe to Expand and Reorganize?

Europe will reorganize per Revelation 17:12-13. However, it will not end up as Viktor Orban, Emmanuel Macron, Mario Draghi, or Ursula von der Leyen hope.
