In a campaign speech today, Viktor Orbán dropped all pretense: Ukraine is Hungary's "enemy" he said, whereas Moscow is his friend and mentor. www.sueddeutsche.de/politik/ukra...

Kiew solle damit aufhören, in Brüssel dauernd zu verlangen, Ungarn von billigem russischem Öl abzuschneiden, verlangt der Rechtspopulist.

She will explore how academic autonomy has been challenged in Hungary’s autocracy, the transformation of universities into politically influenced private institutions, and how student protest movements have served as indicators of civil society’s resilience in the face of autocratization.

This @nytimes article is why Viktor Orbán took over #Hungary's universities. To be a long-term authoritarian, you need a pipeline to produce generations of loyal cadres. Academia must resist #Trump!

European politics are weird + a bit funny. Think it's down to "Real-politik" and why we can handle Poland's Kaczyński, but not Hungary's Orban.
Meloni is better than Salvini + Bardella in France much much better than Weidel.

They know how to negotiate - be pragmatic in Brussels and populist at home

Hungary’s Orban calls Ukraine an enemy and opposes its EU membership
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban called Ukraine an enemy of his country, according to the outlet Index . Speaking at a campaign event, Orban claimed Ukraine is pressing the European Union, of which Hungary is a member, to give up Russian energy supplies. “Whoever says that is an enemy of Hungary, so Ukraine is our enemy,” he said. Orban argued that if Hungary abandons what he called cheap Russian energy, annual household utility costs would rise by about 1 million forints, or roughly €2,600 — about 134,000 hryvnias. What else Orban said about Ukraine: - He said Hungarians should not seek military or economic cooperation with Ukrainians, alleging Kyiv is dragging Budapest into the war. - He added that while cooperation with Ukraine is necessary because it is a neighbor, Kyiv should not be granted EU membership. In January, Orban said there would be no parliament in Hungary for the next century that would vote to admit Ukraine to the European Union. In response, Ukraine’s Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiha said Orban’s plan is doomed to fail.

🇭🇺🇸🇰 Mr Orban’s reticence has let Hungary’s opposition take the lead.

Peter Magyar, whose anti-corruption Tisza party is ahead in the polls, called the Slovak government “anti-Hungarian” and said Mr Orban would be a “traitor” if he did not denounce Mr Fico.

Hungary's leader is a serious threat to peace amd stability in Europe.
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán: “As long as Ukraine demands that Hungary be cut off from cheap Russian energy, Ukraine is not simply our opponent — Ukraine is our enemy.”

Orban replaced Hungary's Supreme Court to secure his power 14 years ago. He called his fellow Hungarian George Soros, a Jewish Holocaust survivor, a "puppet master" on govt-funded billboards in 2017. He calls Harper a "great ally."

The Right Honourable Stephen Harper is a friend of fascism.

A German NGO, Democracy Reporting International—backed by the EU and governments—sued X for election data tied to Hungary's parliamentary elections. This move fuels concerns about foreign interference, DSA compliance, and alleged EU meddling.

Hungary's Prime Minister
Viktor Orbán calls Ukraine an "enemy"
The EU supports Ukraine in its war against Russia. But the government in Budapest has a different stance: Because Kyiv wants to ban Russian energy, it is an enemy of Hungary.

Ungarn: Viktor Orbán bezeichnet die Ukraine als »Feind«
Die EU unterstützt die Ukraine im Krieg gegen Russland. Doch die Regierung in Budapest hat eine andere Haltung: Weil Kyjiw russische Energie verbieten wolle, sei es ein Feind Ungarns.

Hungary’s prime minister, Viktor Orbán, labeled Ukraine an “enemy of the state," lashing out at Kyiv’s push for the EU to halt all imports of Russian energy, which it says bankroll Moscow’s war.

•unemployment benefit reduced to just three months (shortest duration in Europe).
•no child care support, mothers stay at home
•working mothers reduced in number

Hungarians would be smart to move on from the Orban era before a future U.S. President decides to do so for them.

Hungary's Orban labels Ukraine an 'enemy' over energy demands. This isn't rhetoric; it's a strategic move to justify realigning Hungary's interests away from EU consensus. Same script. New actors. Same outcome. #Geopolitics #EnergySecurity
