‘Peace in the region hinges on mutual respect for all sides—including the Serbs and Croats, who seek only to protect their security and self-determination. Brussels must cease pitting one ethnic group against the others, honour existing agreements, and call for an end to repression and a turn toward dialogue. Only through this path can Bosnia and Herzegovina secure a peaceful future…’
‘This move makes a lot of sense to me. Germany has embraced radical leftist policies that weaken Western security and they support the continued war between Russia and Ukraine. Meanwhile, Hungary stands for protecting borders, projecting strength, and traditional values,’ Bryan Leib wrote on X in response to reports that President Trump is considering relocating the 35,000 US soldiers stationed in Germany.
Appointed last week, interim Chargé d’Affaires Robert Palladino was received by Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Levente Magyar on Tuesday to discuss the future of Hungary–US relations. The senior US diplomat also met with American and Hungarian business leaders, emphasizing the promising prospects for economic partnership.
After Kyiv expressed readiness for an immediate ceasefire following US–Ukraine talks in Saudi Arabia, EU leaders issued statements suggesting—or even claiming—that they had always been working toward peace. However, as the lone voice advocating for peace within the EU for a long time, Hungary knows precisely that Brussels has done quite the opposite over the past three years. Our commentary.
The EU is increasing its number of peacekeepers stationed in Bosnia and Herzegovina as tensions rise at an alarming pace in the Western Balkans. Sarajevo accuses Bosnian Serb leader Milorad Dodik of undermining the country’s constitution following a series of legislative moves after his conviction by a federal court last week. A close ally of Dodik, Viktor Orbán and Hungary now find themselves at the centre of these tensions, locked in a sharp diplomatic standoff with Bosnia.
The long-running British newspaper The Times has published a very friendly profile piece about Hungarian opposition leader Péter Magyar, with the headline ‘Meet the biggest threat Hungary’s Viktor Orban has faced in 15 years’. However, they have left out many important facts that put Magyar’s political career in a more realistic perspective.
Hungary is introducing a price cap to combat unjustified food price hikes. Prime Minister Viktor Orbán announced that from mid-March, profit margins on 30 essential food items will be capped at 10 per cent, with measures in place until the end of May.
‘There is an ideological collusion between Ursula von der Leyen and Emmanuel Macron to leave the framework created by the EU treaties…Viktor Orbán is closer to my ideological position than to that of Marine Le Pen,’ President of the French Reconquête party Éric Zemmour talks about the end of the war, the alliances of the right, and Europe’s chances of survival.
After Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced that the Trump administration is cancelling more than 80 per cent of USAID programmes, the agency’s role as the funder of a vast globalist foreign influence network has effectively come to an end. However, the same forces are now regrouping in Brussels—and Hungary will be ready to confront them.
Donald Trump is reportedly considering relocating some 35,000 US soldiers from Germany to Hungary. Viktor Orbán has long advocated for strengthening European defence and establishing a joint European army, while also fully meeting Hungary’s NATO commitments on defence spending. At the same time, Hungary remains the only EU country that shares the United States’ position on Ukraine. But how likely is this plan to materialize?
