‘The honest takeaway from the year’s first two to three weeks is this: to the American Empire, everything remains on the table. Yet its interest in the world has never been narrower. The United States is not retreating from the globe, but from those regions that no longer yield dividends. For the same reasons, China and Russia will likely follow suit.’
‘In addition to his role as patron of the country, the prince who died in an unfortunate accident had to wait centuries to find his place among the Hungarian saints, so that his legend could be used to inspire young schoolchildren and promote Catholicism to them.’
‘In the case of Ukraine and Spain, it also produces circumstantial parallels that obscure the unbridgeable gap between the very natures of the two conflicts, conflating the ideological antagonisms of the 1930s at their most nationally internecine with a globalized, technological war for territory. Far from far-sighted, the mantra that Europe should re-learn forgotten lessons or resign itself to perish here becomes dangerously myopic.’
‘Though it was ultimately forced to merge with the Democratic Party, the Farmer–Labor Party’s legacy lives on today, making the Democratic–Farmer Labor Party often further to the left than the rest of the Democratic Party across the United States.’
‘The idea of becoming a congregational pastor matured in me in America. We managed to visit my grandmother several times, who fled Hungary in 1956 and lived in New Jersey…In 1996, however, I felt that I’d like to come to America properly, look around, and talk to fellow pastors. That was when I first felt that perhaps I should try my hand at congregational ministry.’
‘Trump…does not need to “take over” Greenland by force or by acquisition. Instead, he should rely on his artful strategy that has thus far been marked by business pragmatism and a preference for power politics—peace through transaction, that is, cutting a deal.’
What is the significance of the American military intervention aiming to capture President Maduro? What went wrong during the Chávez era? What will be the fate of the Maduro—and the Cuban—regime? The Hungarian Conservative asked the prominent Venezuelan opposition figure in Budapest about America’s capture of President Maduro and its political consequences for Venezuela.
As the world order shifts at breakneck speed—from Donald Trump’s pressure on Denmark over Greenland to Washington’s operation against Venezuela—EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas offered European lawmakers an eyebrow-raising response: ‘start drinking’. The remark has become a symbol of Brussels’ paralysis in the new international environment, prompting Balázs Orbán to call for Kallas to resign.
The Hungarian news site Mandiner claims to have obtained information that US President Donald Trump may be coming to CPAC Hungary 2026 in person. President Trump has already sent exclusive video messages to the event in 2023, 2024, and 2025 as well.
‘Venezuela has become a stress test. And Europe’s response has exposed both its instincts and its inhibitions.’
At a time when public debate is increasingly polarized and superficial, Hungarian Conservative remains committed to depth and independent thought.
