I'm sure Italy and Hungary are excited about 'greater integration' too - they've certainly expressed that desire in their recent elections. I'd say 'fall' is the wrong word, but the European Union is not in a particularly healthy state right now. One large member leaving, one founding member making potentially illegal demands after electing populists, another three being sued for refusing to follow rules on migrants. It's not the first time, and it probably wont be the last, but it's not a good place to be.

Hungary is basket case. Not sure what's going on there, but Italy won't be going anywhere.

I can't speak for Italy, but as one of the hundreds of thousands of Hungarians who could easily get a job outside Hungary _because_ of Hungary joining the EU, I'm deeply thankful for the fact that EU is trying to control the damage that Orban Viktor is doing to the country.

As for the elections: Orban used lots of tools (cheating) to make sure that they win again. Migrants/illegal border crossers are not a problem here at this time here actually (they prefer Germany with a better economy).

Most of us Hungarians want to stay in the EU, but we have a dictator who would prefer to be outside if the money stops flowing from EU to them.
