Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán expressed his condolences to US President Donald Trump and the American people following the tragic collision between an American Airlines flight and a military helicopter on Wednesday night in Washington, D.C. The disaster, which some are calling the deadliest commercial crash in US history, has left dozens feared dead.
U.S.-led Western society has been tainted by the LGTBQ+ policies to the point of redefining the institution the family. It was, thus, reassuring to hear the president say: ‘As of today, it will henceforth be the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders, male and female.’
In his regular Friday morning interview on public radio, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán outlined plans for Hungary’s future, addressing challenges posed by globalist influences, economic priorities, and the changing geopolitical landscape, while stressing that a ‘golden age’ is coming regarding Hungarian–American ties under the Trump administration.

‘While the world is justly concerned about the acts of jihadist violence, it has been led by neoconservative and progressive politicians and the mainstream media to believe that the acts of terror carried out by Muslims are sparse and provincial. Consequential to this has been the denial of the jihadist doctrine as a juridical development of Islamic sacred texts.’

The online conference presenting the varied and numerous activities of the organizations of the Hungarian American community in North California was held on 25 October, following up on the first part of the event that took place on 27 September.
While President George W Bush enjoyed a record-high 90 per cent approval rating in the wake of the tragic 9/11 attack in 2001, his support dropped to just 25 per cent by October 2008. This was due to the eventual unpopularity of the Iraq war, but mostly, due to the 2008 financial crisis. Illinois Senator Barack Obama narrowly defeated former First Lady Hillary Clinton in the Democratic primary, then handily won the 2008 election to become the first black President in US history.
At a time when public debate is increasingly polarized and superficial, Hungarian Conservative remains committed to depth and independent thought.
