‘Hungary’s humanitarian and military aid to Lebanon can contribute to regional stability and it also reflects Hungary’s broader geopolitical interests, that is, a stable Lebanon for the sake of the Middle East—and also for Europe, which faces potential security and migration challenges.’
Speaking before the parliament of Republika Sprksa, President Milorad Dodik announced a new constitution aimed at increasing the entity’s independence from Bosnia and Herzegovina’s federal institutions and the high representative. In his speech, Dodik also declared a ‘war for the future’ of Republika Srpska.
Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Péter Szijjártó described the ongoing protests in Serbia as an attempted ‘colour revolution’ aimed at destabilizing the region. He further stated that foreign-backed colour revolutions in recent years have all ended in tragedy, expressing gratitude to US President Donald Trump for ending Washington’s policy of meddling in other nations’ domestic affairs.
Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Péter Szijjártó pointed out that the sudden shift of EU leaders on a potential ceasefire in Ukraine is ‘politically ridiculous’ and highlights their lack of credibility. However, it also raises the question of responsibility for Brussels’ failed strategy over the past three years.
Hungarian and American leaders commemorated 15 March at the US Capitol, honouring Lajos Kossuth as a symbol of shared values between the two nations. The event highlighted common commitments to family, peace, national values, and Christian culture.
‘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.
