      Can’t we just combine Austria and Hungary again? Everybody loved that.

      Well, except Bosnian Serbs I guess.

        Austria isn’t as blatant as Hungary but their policy is also pretty russia-friendly.

        And there is a reason A-H collapsed and it wasn’t just because of WW1 and Bosnian Serbs. Poles, Czechs, Slovaks, Romanians or basically anybody who wasn’t German or Hungarian hated the monarchy in the end(With the possible exception of the Croats, who reached some kind of agreement with Hungarians right before the collapse).

      “There’s nobody that’s better, smarter or a better leader than Viktor Orbán. He’s fantastic. He’s a noncontroversial figure because he said, ‘This is the way it’s going to be,’ and that’s the end of it, right? He’s the boss and … he’s a great leader, fantastic leader. In Europe and around the world, they respect him.”

      Donald Trump, predictably

      Quote: “NATO has no business in Ukraine. Ukraine, just like Russia, isn’t a NATO member, and my job is to make sure it stays that way.”

      He said it was “his job” but never mentioned who he works for

    good thing our glorious german arms manufacturer Rheinmetall (creators of the Leopard tanks) built the world’s most high-tech tank factory in fucking Hungary of all places. Putin will soon sport some sleak looking new MBT’s in Ukraine thanks to us greedy Germans :)

    Of course he will keep it that way. He won’t have the time to continue sucking off Putin if he has to think about NATO membership. Hungary needs to flush that miserable turd down the political toilet once and for all.

      If the next year’s elections fail and Orbán stays in power then we can start calling it Western Belarus from then on.

    So, once the US has ditched NATO to partner with Putin, Orban, Millei, etc…

    WILL THE REMAINDER OF NATO SMARTEN-UP AND GET READY FOR THE BEING-RAMPAGED THAT WE’RE GOING TO BE SUBJECTED-TO by Putin+Trump+Orban+GlobalRightWing??

    XOR are we going to sit on our hands waiting, denying right to our country’s deaths, resonsibility for our own survival??

    Humankind may-well deserve extinguishing, if humankind won’t do what it needs to do, to survive…

    Orban needs to be removed from the EU, and from TrueNATO.

    Yesterday.

    This has been true since it became obvious that he was Putin’s agent/representative, a few years ago.
