The leadership of the Mathias Corvinus Collegium says the planned dissolution of its public-interest foundation is a legally required procedural step rather than an unexpected government decision, and insists the institution’s programmes will continue without disruption.
‘Recent reporting on the suspension of MCC Brussels from the EU Transparency Register has contained significant factual inaccuracies. Much of the coverage has focused on implication rather than fact…For clarity, the suspension does not concern corruption, misconduct, financial irregularities, criminal wrongdoing, or any attempt to improperly influence EU institutions.’
MCC Brussels has condemned the suspension of its EU Transparency Register registration, arguing that the decision stems from a politically motivated complaint and reflects a broader pattern of efforts to marginalize conservative voices in Brussels. The organization plans to appeal the decision while continuing its advocacy, events, and public engagement activities.
Dr Norman Lewis argues that the European Union’s technological sovereignty agenda launched today will fail, and risks making Europe less competitive.
‘This enormous mobilization of the population should be the final nail in the coffin of the increasingly desperate narrative, favoured by EU elites and the Brussels media, that Orbán was a dangerous autocrat who had built an anti-democratic system. Orbán remained a democrat to his core.’
During his visit to Budapest, US Vice President JD Vance addressed students at MCC Budapest. He discussed Western values, higher education, and global conflicts, while also lauding the achievements of Prime Minister Viktor Orbán of Hungary and criticizing European leadership.
Rob Schneider visited MCC Budapest, sharing his views on comedy, politics, and the state of Hollywood. Praising Hungary’s safety and national pride, he warned about cultural shifts in Europe and criticized ‘woke’ trends in entertainment, while also revealing plans to film Grown Ups 3 in Europe with Adam Sandler.
‘The central democratic principle is simple: Hungarian voters must be free to choose their government without covert interference—but also without organized attempts to poison trust in the result in advance through anonymous allegations, media sensationalism, institutional signalling and narrative policing.’
British conservative commentator Matt Goodwin warned that freedom of speech, national democracy, and sovereignty are being eroded in the UK and Europe. At the MCC Summit on Reclaiming the West, he said political elites and supranational institutions, like the EU, are narrowing acceptable debate and shifting decisions away from voters.
Mathias Corvinus Collegium’s high-level summit Reclaiming the West kicked off with an unexpected confrontation as Israeli security expert Or Yissachar and former UN Assistant Secretary General Michael von der Schulenburg delivered sharply opposing views on the US–Israeli military operation against Iran, turning the opening session into a spontaneous debate on war, regime change, and international law.
At a time when public debate is increasingly polarized and superficial, Hungarian Conservative remains committed to depth and independent thought.
