Trump Was Robbed of the Nobel Peace Prize
‘Had Trump been a Democrat, he would have won the Nobel Peace Prize. It is nothing short of a scandal that he did not win it this year.’

‘When that framework is attacked or discredited, society doesn’t become more tolerant: it becomes more fractured. National symbols, such as the flag, serve not to exclude but to unite. They are the visual shorthand for a shared story.’

Miklós Szánthó accused Péter Magyar and his allies of ‘fleecing Hungarian families’ even without being in power by supporting EU migration policies. At a campaign event in front of the EU Commission’s office in Budapest, he linked the EU fines imposed on Hungary for border protection to Magyar’s party and warned against following Western Europe’s migration path.

Brussels is set to investigate claims that Hungarian intelligence officers spied on EU institutions and sought to recruit an official while stationed at Hungary’s permanent representation between 2015 and 2017. The move comes eight years after the alleged network was dismantled—and just 6 months before Hungary’s general election.

What could be Europe’s future: a decline, or a new golden age? How imminent is the Russian threat to Europe? How does Sweden view Hungary’s fight for sovereignty? We asked former Prime Minister of Sweden Carl Bildt about Europe’s bright or dark future at Brain Bar 2025 in Budapest.

‘Beyond the fence on the Serbian side…the AK-47-wielding people smugglers have established military-style camps for the migrants; is it compassionate to support a multi-billion-dollar criminal enterprise? Many illegal migrants who successfully break through are forced to continue paying the smugglers under duress; is it compassionate to support a modern form of indentured labour?’

The Mathias Corvinus Collegium Foundation and the Hungarian Chamber of Commerce and Industry have signed a cooperation agreement to promote talent development and practical training through joint programmes, mentorships, and research initiatives.

‘When political parties on opposite sides of the parliamentary spectrum voice sharp criticism…against a politician belonging to the centrist party family, it is easy to conclude that “extremist” groups are fighting against…balanced policies. This may be true in some cases, but a closer look reveals a much more complex picture, especially in the European political arena.’

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán hit back at Volodymyr Zelenskyy after the Ukrainian leader vowed his country would join the EU ‘with Orbán or without him.’ Orbán accused Zelenskyy of ‘moral blackmail’, stressing that accession requires unanimous approval by member states and recalling Hungarians’ overwhelming rejection of Ukraine’s bid.

The collapse of Sébastien Lecornu’s government has plunged France deeper into crisis, forcing Emmanuel Macron to weigh another snap election that could propel Marine Le Pen’s National Rally to power. Such a shift would upend the European Union’s political order, giving patriots unprecedented influence in Paris and Brussels.
