‘Brexit will be regarded by history as a triumph, and it was a very important thing for our country to do. However, over the last decade, it’s also been extremely hard and sucked in effectively all the effort of a generation of conservative activists to the exclusion and the cost of almost everything else…My conclusion from that is that Hungary is wise not to be attempting Huxit…’
‘Baptists plan to vote this week on acting to overturn Obergefell v. Hodges, the U.S. Supreme Court ruling that legalized same-sex unions ten years ago this month. They would be joining Republican lawmakers from nine states after Congressman Josh Schriver introduced the marriage resolution in his home state of Michigan, saying that the Obergefell ruling “is at odds with the sanctity of marriage…”’
7 October 2023 will go down in Jewish history as the second Holocaust—or at least, this is how many Israelis feel.

‘When countries collectively decide to form a permanent institutional body where divisible sovereignty is the norm, like the EU, it attenuates the ability of those states to make decisions regarding the governance of their own economies and other associated policies. In essence, Hungary must realize that so long as it is a member state of the EU, it delegates certain decision-making to it.’

This was no different in 2021–22, when the Janus Pannonius Museum and Ásatárs Ltd excavated the site on the outskirts of the village of Babarc in Baranya County, in connection with the construction of the M6 motorway. Then, an Early Avar cemetery was uncovered on a three-hectare area of loess moorland rising from the Danube.
‘Migration is a great concern to us because we are one of the first countries for the migrants coming to Europe. So we have a huge number of migrants, and probably Italians feel like they want to be left alone in addressing the issue, this challenge,’ Associate Professor at the University of Milan Benedetta Vimercati told Hungarian Conservative in an exclusive interview.
‘Illiberal democracy is more than a political model; it is a value proposition for the post-liberal era,’ political director to the Hungarian Prime Minister Balázs Orbán emphasized in a recent opinion piece published on Index.

‘We persist in fighting for life wherever opportunities arise. Likewise, we should applaud the conservative government of Hungary for its efforts rather than criticize them. It holds a proven record on life through pronatalist incentives, not just anti-abortion restrictions. In a West fading to demographic dusk, Hungary stands as a partner and a beacon worth defending.’
The Democratic Party of Korea is reportedly exploring ways to incorporate incentives similar to the Hungarian approach on family policy into its finalized policy package ahead of the presidential elections in June.
