‘The convergence of record Israeli tourism and a comprehensive national strategy against antisemitism is no coincidence. It reflects a broader truth: in an era marked by fragmentation and ideological turbulence across parts of Europe, Hungary offers stability, clarity, and institutional responsibility.’
The United States and Israel launched joint strikes on Iran early Saturday following days of military buildup and escalating tensions, marking a major escalation in the Middle East. Explosions were reported across Tehran, as President Donald Trump confirmed the start of ‘major combat operations’ aimed at neutralizing ‘imminent threats’ to the American people.
‘Israel is often labelled an occupier with regard to Judea and Samaria (commonly referred to as the West Bank). This small territory has been controversial for decades. From the Israeli perspective, however, the land represents a far more complex issue—one that encompasses strategy, security, history, and national survival.’

But unlike other countries in Europe that share the same views on these topics, Hungary’s strong pro-Israel stance organically flows from this rejection, and also constitutes an integral part of its conservative vision for the future realignment of the European right.’
In 2023, the small Israeli community of Nir Oz, located near the Gaza border, became the scene of one of the deadliest attacks in Israel’s recent history.
At a time when public debate is increasingly polarized and superficial, Hungarian Conservative remains committed to depth and independent thought.
