Since its foundation in 1976, the European People’s Party (EPP) has advocated in favour of a strong, transparent and efficient Europe at the service of its citizens. The 2014 European Elections marked the fourth victory for the EPP and reaffirmed the party as the leading political force in Europe. Every day the renewed trust of the European citizens is the driving inspiration for the EPP’s activities. Being the largest political party entails the great responsibility to deliver on all those issues which matter the most to our citizens: jobs and economic stability, competitiveness, security, and prosperity.
We are committed to working with our member parties and associations, our heads of state and government, our ministers in the EPP Ministerial Meetings, President Tusk, President Juncker and the EPP Commissioners, and our Group in the European Parliament to achieve these objectives and to promote our values, which we derive from our Christian Democrat tradition: the dignity of the human being, freedom, responsibility, equality, truth, justice, solidarity and subsidiarity.
We are aware of the importance of being united as well as the privilege of our differences, and of the importance of reaching our citizens and being more accessible in an increasingly interconnected reality. We wish to offer the openness, dialogue and opportunity for debate which has always distinguished our political family.

Secretary General
The EPP Manifesto, also adopted at the 2012 EPP Congress in Bucharest, outlines the basic principles of the Party summarising who we are, what our values are, what challenges are we facing and what vision we have for the future. The Manifesto was developed in parallel to the EPP Platform document within the EPP Working Group 1 for “European Policy”.
What we believe and what we will do for Europe.

Obehindrat att komma in i landet?ingen har bett de att komma hit.Inga papper God vet vilka de är har inga visum så det är klart att dr är inte välkomna till Ungern.Det är fritt fram att gå tillbaka.Sen får man tycka vad man vill,Men ungerska befolkningen vill inte ha de här.Så enkelt är det.Passar inte det åk tillbaka!!!det är inte mänskliga rättigheter att vandra genom hela världen utan pass utan visum.Det är inte den mänskliga rättigheter att förstöra allt som kommer i deras väg.Det är inte det mänskliga rättighet att den europeiska folket skall försörja de bara för att de har fått nog där hemma.Jobba vill de inte.Det är inte det mänskliga rättigheter att begå brottsliga handlingar.det är inte det mänskliga rättigheter att bara kräva och kräva utan motprestation.Så visst håller jag med den ungerska regeringen att de har ingenting att göra här.Alla europeiska folk har gått jobba och slita för att byggs upp sitt land,dess standard gör att ha lite lättare.Det var inte gratis .Kan rekommendera för de också åk hem jobba där hemma för en bättre framtid.

Eu nu pot susține un politician de acest gen..nu vreau sa intru în amănunte dar nu sunt de acord cu el..și deci o spun sus și tare NU...nu face parte din convingerile mele politice...am prostul obicei sa văd și mai în spate ce se întâmplă..nu numai praful din ochii proștilor..cum probabil gândește...

UN human rights experts suspend Hungary visit after access denied GENEVA (15 November 2018) - UN human rights experts have taken the unprecedented step of suspending an official visit to Hungary after they were denied access to the Röszke and Tompa “transit zones” at the border with Serbia where migrants and asylum seekers, including children, are deprived of their liberty. “There can be no doubt that holding migrants in these ‘transit zones’ constitutes deprivation of liberty in accordance with international law,” said Elina Steinerte and Sètondji Roland Adjovi, members of the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention. “We have received a number of credible reports concerning the lack of safeguards against arbitrary detention in these facilities which called for a visit by the Working Group.” Hungary had invited the delegation to conduct the visit from 12 to 16 November 2018 in order to follow up on its 2013 recommendations*. Under the terms of reference for visits by independent experts appointed by the UN’s Human Rights Council, governments are required to guarantee freedom of inquiry particularly as regards to “confidential and unsupervised contacts with persons deprived of their liberty”. The experts said they regretted that the Hungarian authorities have not respected those undertakings and as a result the Working Group was prevented from fulfilling its mandate. “Unimpeded access to all places of deprivation of liberty including these transit zones must be guaranteed to independent international, regional and national organisations,” the experts said. “This is vital for the protection of the human rights in a country governed by rule of law.” The Working Group said it hoped that the Government of Hungary would enter into a constructive dialogue to enable the delegates resume their visit in the near future and to work together to establish effective safeguards against the risk of arbitrary deprivation of liberty in Hungary. ENDS The Working Group on Arbitrary Detention was established by the former Commission on Human Rights in 1991 to investigate instances of alleged arbitrary deprivation of liberty. Its mandate was clarified and extended by the Commission to cover the issue of administrative custody of asylum-seekers and immigrants. In September 2016, the Human Rights Council confirmed the scope of the Working Group's mandate and extended it for a further three-year period. The Working Group is comprised of five independent expert members from various regions of the world. The Chair-Rapporteur is Mr. Seong-Phil Hong (the Republic of Korea); the Vice Chair-Rapporteurs are Ms. Elina Steinerte (Latvia; Vice-Chair on Communications) and Ms. Leigh Toomey (Australia; Vice-Chair on Follow-up). Other members include Mr. José Guevara (Mexico; Focal point on Reprisals) and Mr. Sètondji Roland Adjovi (Benin). (*) See the Working Group’s 2013 report on its visit to Hungary (A/HRC/27/48/Add.4). Check the Database of the Working Group on Arbitrary Detention. The Working Groups are part of what is known as the Special Procedures of the Human Rights Council. Special Procedures, the largest body of independent experts in the UN Human Rights system, is the general name of the Council’s independent fact-finding and monitoring mechanisms that address either specific country situations or thematic issues in all parts of the world. Special Procedures’ experts work on a voluntary basis; they are not UN staff and do not receive a salary for their work. They are independent from any government or organization and serve in their individual capacity. UN Human Rights Country Page – Hungary For more information and media requests, please contact: Ms. Lucie Viersma +41 79 752 04 85; lviersma@ohchr.org) or write to wgad@ohchr.org. For media inquiries related to other UN independent experts please contact: Jeremy Laurence (+41 22 917 9383 / jlaurence@ohchr.org). This year is the 70th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted by the UN on 10 December 1948. The Universal Declaration – translated into a world record 500 languages – is rooted in the principle that “all human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.” It remains relevant to everyone, every day. In honour of the 70th anniversary of this extraordinarily influential document, and to prevent its vital principles from being eroded, we are urging people everywhere to Stand Up for Human Rights: www.standup4humanrights.org. Grat:) Mr Weber nice job:)
Do you want to know what did Jean-Claude Juncker, Donald Tusk or Angela Merkel say during EPP Congress in Helsinki last week? All of the speaches, including Spitzenkandidat debate, are now available in the best quality on our YouTube channel! Take a look 😉 here: epp.org/YouTube
and you know what he said Viktor Orban ? "who can not maintain himself, not worthy that he should live" www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzEKOSo5EIc
I will watch every video you post if you bring Gemma back to present them.
There's one thing they surely didn't say: "Orbán, uphold academic freedom!" Is the EPP betraying it's European values of freedom and democracy? #AcademicFreedom #IstandwithCEU #EPPRedLine
Bravo!Manfred!
Poland🇵🇱 is celebrating centenary of its independence today. Best wishes to our Polish friends enjoying Święto Niepodległości!
Great independent anniversary
After the PiS government and the PiS president has organized a march in which 200,000 fascists from Poland and fascist guests from abroad take part, the governments of democratic countries should break off diplomatic relations with Poland. Poland is ruled by fascists
"And then I told them that I wouldn't let Orban close CEU and continue his attacks on civil society, and they believed me!" :D
This is the guy you’re blindly supporting: cpj.org/2018/11/hungarian-authorities-bring-criminal-charges-again.php
nekem akkor lesz hiteles ha megállítja ésx kizárja a fideszt a soraiból.Másképpen ő is olyan mint Orbán!
A Fidesz kizáratásával kampányolni úgy tűnik, nem kifizetődő, Hála Istennek!
How long are you planning on supporting Orban? EPP is the Orban party, undermining EU values, even if you try to crop him off from your pictures. He is the real face of EPP now
Campaigning by excluding Fidesz from the EPP seems like unprofitable! Right, Mr. Stubb? Thank God!
Hungarian court ruled that Viktor Orbán had committed genocide against his people when he did not take care of cripples, left them to their fate. the EPP can be proud of Viktor Orbán... Erdogan would also be eligible for membership. Since 2012, 460,000 cripples have disappeared from Hungary ... their fate is unknown!
During EPP Congress Manfred Weber, the current chairman of the EPP Group in the European Parliament, was elected as the new Lead Candidate ahead of the European elections in 2019.
Watch the campaign launch video and visit weber.epp.eu/ to learn more about our Spitzenkandidat!
Acest Weber este marele prieten al României?!
You had a choice between your conservative tradition respectful of European values and the shift to the far right embodied by Viktor Orbán. You chose the latter and your voters are not stupid: those who want democracy will go towards the centre and those who want fascism will go to the real fascists. And you will end up in the dustbin of history as those who helped Europe go towards the new 1930s...

The banksters have already decided everything for us and you are licking their boots every day ! Do you really think we citizens have anything to say ? Even you people who are paid for that, you would not listen...

Too bad. Alex Stubb would have been a great figure at the EU COM’s head. Manfred represents the old guard.
Great to see such a hypocritical lier elected as your head: two weeks ago he was telling everyone that he would not accept Orbán attaching academic freedom and civil society, and now he is kicking his boots and staying silent over these issues. Shame on you for playing with the far right, EPP!
If you are so good, why did you vote against our country and our government? we lie there, Where you should not!

I wouldn't be so proud with a dictator in their midst. I don't know if they are so ignorant or they just don't care.
Such a great panorama of hypocritical politicians who do not care that their ally Viktor Orban is not only violating EU treaties but also trampling the EPP charter.
Magyarorszagnak és európának addig jó mig ilyen politikusok vannak lesznek mint Orbán Viktor.A liberalizmus jelenleg eggyenlő a népirtásal

Mare DREPTATE are! Ce ne facem fraților cu românașii noștri care gândesc 'fragmentat'. Am auzit o persoană în vârstă,bucuroasă că au câștigat alegerile cei din PSD,spunând că dacă respectă măcar 30% din promisiunile făcute în campanie,ar fi bine. De ce și pentru ce să gândim așa?

EPP leaders are very antitalent people, 1st of all Weber.
"It has become very clear today that adopting, copying or imitating any form of populism is not what we are going to do.” A firm reply from EPP’s new Spitzenkandidat, Manfred Weber on question of the EPP's identity - a Christian Democrat party of the center right... Nov. 9 2018.
Can someone explain I don’t understand? What does it all mean. Peace from Lynn Appleby
