Madžarska bo za eno leto oproščena ameriških sankcij v povezavi z uvozom ruskih energentov. Bela hiša je izjemo za Budimpešto napovedala po včerajšnjem obisku madžarskega premierja Viktorja Orbana pri ameriškem predsedniku Donaldu Trumpu. Ta je dejal, da Madžarska težko dobi nafto in plin z drugih območij, saj nima morja in pristanišč. Voditelja sta med drugim govorila o vojni v Ukrajini in odnosih z Rusijo, pri čemer je Orban zatrdil, da Zahod glede tega ni enoten. Drugi poudarki oddaje: - Na srečanju voditeljev pred podnebno konferenco slišati opozorila pred posledicami vojn na podnebje. - Vlada in sindikati javnega sektorja še brez soglasja o izplačevanju delovne uspešnosti po novem. - Startna mesta na pohodu po Levstikovi poti od Litije do Čateža odprta še dve uri.

Madžarska je včeraj dosegla enoletni izvzem iz ameriških sankcij glede dobave ruske nafte. Kot zatrjuje ameriški predsednik Donald Trump, se je za to odločil, ker Madžarska nima pristanišč in je zato v težavnem položaju, v nasprotju z drugmih evropskimi državami, ki imajo dostop do morja. Druge teme: - Na Hrvaškem protesti po ukrepanju v zvezi z ustaško obarvanimi incidenti - Ortopedi v prihodnosti pričakujejo veliko vlogo umetne inteligence pri operacijah in zdravljenju - Kako bo na delo policistov ob martinovanju vplivala odločitev ustavnega sodišča o alkotestih?

Madžarski premier Viktor Orban je v Beli hiši z ameriškim predsednikom Donaldom Trumpom dosegel, da bo Budimpešta za leto dni oproščena ameriških sankcij zaradi uvoza ruskih energentov. Orban se je po poročanju ameriških medijev zavezal, da bo Budimpešta od Washingtona med drugim kupila utekočinjen zemeljski plin v vrednosti 600 milijonov dolarjev. Kaj dogovor pomeni za madžarskega premiera in kaj za Evropsko unijo?

Il presidente Donald Trump ha ricevuto alla Casa Bianca il primo ministro ungherese Viktor Orbán e gli ha concesso "un'esenzione illimitata" dalle sanzioni Usa sul petrolio russo.

President Donald Trump is set to meet with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban at the White House on Friday. It is the first bilateral meeting between the two leaders since Trump's return to office in January. The two leaders are expected to discuss Hungary's reliance on Russian oil. Trump has insisted that European nations stop buying Russian petroleum products as a way of slashing Moscow's funding for its war in Ukraine.Some 40 airports across the United States are being forced to decrease the number of flights, starting on Friday. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announced the decision on Wednesday, as it struggles with personnel shortages due to the ongoing government shutdown.

Viktor Orban e Vladimir Putin sono politicamente allineati, ma di recente Washington ha criticato l'Ungheria per l'importazione di petrolio russo. Allo stesso tempo, il legame tra il leader ungherese e Vladimir Putin potrebbe essere per Trump una carta da giocare per arrivare ad un accordo sul conflitto in Ucraina. Ne parliamo con Arturo Varvelli, direttore della sede romana dello European Council on Foreign Realations, e con Mattia Diletti, professore di scienza politica e public policy alla Sapienza Università di Roma.

The man Donald Trump has called a "great leader", and who has long provoked admiration in MAGA circles, suddenly finds himself in an unusual position – at odds with the US president on an issue of critical importance. Viktor Orban, Hungary's prime minister, is visiting the White House on Friday to try to resolve a dispute over Russian oil and gas. Orban wants to keep buying it, but Trump wants countries to wean themselves off Russian energy and help put the brakes on Russia's war in Ukraine. Will Trump choose to keep an old friend close, or put pressure on Putin? We speak to Nick Thorpe, the BBC's correspondent in Budapest, who has covered Orban since the 1980s.

The global rise of the authoritarian right has confounded classification and led to contentious debates on the left. Do politicians like Modi, Bolsonaro, Orban, and Trump represent an extreme form of right-wing populism? Or are they fascists, as some claim? Historian and scholar of populism and fascism Federico Finchelstein argues that we're seeing something new — a phenomenon that blurs the lines between the two. Federico Finchelstein, The Wannabe Fascists: A Guide to Understanding the Greatest Threat to Democracy UC Press, 2024 The post The Populist-Fascist Hybrid appeared first on KPFA.

From the United States to China and from Brazil to India, an authoritarian approach to news is spreading across the world. Increasingly, the media is no longer a check on power or a source of objective information but a means by which governments and leaders can propagate their versions of reality, however biased or false. In Dictating Reality: The Global Battle to Control the News (Columbia UP, 2025), Dr. Martin Moore and Dr. Thomas Colley show how states are battling to control and shape the news in order to entrench their power, evade scrutiny, and ensure that their political narratives are accepted. Combining in-depth analyses of seven countries with a compelling range of stories and characters from around the world, they demonstrate the unprecedented scale and scope of governments' efforts to take control of the media. Dictating Reality details how Xi's China, Putin's Russia, Modi's India, AMLO's Mexico, Bolsonaro's Brazil, and Orban's Hungary have all sought, in their different ways, to exploit news to manufacture alternative realities—and how their methods have taken hold in the United States, the United Kingdom, and other democracies. Combining keen analysis of contemporary world events with years of original research, this book is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand how authoritarian leaders use the media, why more and more people are living in different realities, and the ways democracy is under threat. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Ukrepi, uvedeni čez noč, navadno ne prinašajo dobrih sprememb, po napovedi vladnega svežnja zakonov za zagotavljanje varnosti po incidentu v Novem mestu opozarja stroka. Predvsem pri širjenju policijskih pooblastil ni povsem jasno, ali bodo tudi ustavno sprejemljivi. Odvetnik Blaž Kovačič Mlinar zato poziva k boljšem izkoriščanju obstoječih ukrepov pred uvajanjem novih, saj morda sistemsko ne bodo zdržali. Pomisleke ima tudi opozicija, ki po odstopu ministrov za pravosodje in notranje zadeve zahteva odgovornost tudi drugod. Drugi poudarki oddaje: - NSi in SDS vložili interpelacijo zoper ministra za delo Luko Mesca. - Je v Gazi sploh še mogoče govoriti o premirju? - Orban v Rimu o vojni v Ukrajini in obrambnih mehanizmih.

This week, The Big Bird (Coachee) publicly called out the NFF, asking where all the FIFA and CAF funding has gone and why there's still no visible progress in Nigerian football. Olu breaks it down and discusses whether the blame should really be on the players or the federation itself.He also runs through the Super Eagles Index, ranking Nigerian players who are in form and those who may have cooled down ahead of the crucial World Cup playoff qualifiers. Plus updates on the Super Falcons' WAFCON qualifiers, the U17 women's team, and a quick look at Rivers United's CAF Champions League qualification.00:00 Intro00:43 NFF Called Out06:15 WAFCON Qualifiers07:11 Under-17 Women's World Cup08:09 CAF Men's Awards Nominees09:23 CAF Champions League qualification11:06 Super Eagles Index22:55 Premier League (Aina, Awoniyi, Bassey, Iwobi, Chukwueze Onyeka, Arokodare, Uche)32:36 Championship (Ajayi, Osayi-Samuel)32:42 Serie A (Lookman, Akinsanmiro, Dele-Bashiru, Orban, Okereke)34:58 La Liga (Ejuke, Adams, Sadiq)36:05 Bundesliga (Tella, Boniface, Akpoguma, Torunarigha, Agu)37:58 Ligue 1 (Moffi, Simon, Awaziem, Ilenikhena, Ojediran)39:45 Portugal (Sanusi)40:21 Belgium (Onyedika, Sor, Frederick)41:28 Turkey (Osimhen, Ndidi, Onuachu, Nwakaeme, Dennis)43:05 Czech Republic (Durosinmi, Ogbu, Moses, Uchenna)45:37 Greece (Onyemaechi, Dessers)46:22 Scotland (Iheanacho, Fernandez)46:46 Switzerland (Otele)47:08 PSL (Nwabali)47:30 Starboy of the week50:19 Ones to watch53:05 Outro

In deze aflevering van Nieuws van de Week bespreken Marlies Dekkers, Jelle van Baardewijk en Ad Verbrugge de strijd om Russische tegoeden bij Euroclear als mogelijke ‘oorlogskas' voor Oekraïne, met alle juridische en geopolitieke gevolgen van dien. Ze ontrafelen het Nexperia‑dossier: is er een verborgen industrieplan van Draghi, Von der Leyen en Karremans, of is het vooral paniekbeleid? China's tegenzet en de druk op de Europese auto‑industrie (o.a. Volkswagen) leggen een groter patroon bloot: Europa wordt te laat wakker en mist een robuust industrieel ecosysteem.Verder komen aan bod: Hongarije en Orban die ‘voor de bus' zijn gegooid, Rutte als schaduwpremier binnen de NAVO‑lijn, BRICS dat afwacht, de doorgeschoten management‑economie en ‘computerslaaf'-bureaucratie, en de prangende vraag of onze democratie nog werkt. We sluiten af met de aankondiging van de live uitzending tijdens de verkiezingsavond.

Freches, David www.deutschlandfunk.de, Europa heute

What do Stalin, Trump, and Viktor Orbán have in common? They're all fragile men terrified of truth, artists, and of anyone with a moral compass. In this week's Gaslit Nation, we talk with 91-year-old Peter Hidas, who as a young student helped ignite the 1956 Hungarian Uprising, a movement born of courage and faith in a better world. Peter's story is a testament to what ordinary people can do when they refuse to bow to tyranny. The revolts that shook the Iron Curtain in 1956 laid the groundwork for the movements that would one day bring down the Soviet empire, to the unforgettable soundtrack of Swan Lake played on repeat on Soviet TV by a collapsing regime. Today, a new generation of brave Russians has reclaimed that symbol: the “Swan Lake Collective” is being played by artists on the streets of Russia, creating a rallying cry “Let the swans dance!” for peace, freedom, and the end of Putin's Fox News–style dictatorship. Gaslit Nation is here to remind you that Putin's days are numbered.  This week's show also celebrates the heroes of the No Kings protests, the Gen Z meme pirates toppling corruption crime sprees pretending to be governments, how Trump and Putin might try to save Orban's doomed April 2026 election, and more.  So keep marching. Keep creating.That's how we win.  The song featured in this week's episode is “Election Day” by The Spiders.

For the final episode in this series David talks to historian Ayse Zarakol about the prospects for democracy in the age of strongman politics, from Trump to Erdogan, from Orban to Modi. Where did the strongmen come from? How unusual is this kind of politics in the broad sweep of history? Does democracy have the wherewithal to resist its pull? And if not, what happens next? The 4th film in our autumn season at the Regent Street Cinema in London is coming up on Wednesday 5th November: a screening of Derek Jarman's Wittgenstein followed by a live recording of PPF with writer and philosopher Nikhil Krishnan.

Republican Speaker of the House Mike Johnson is blaming the government shutdown for the delay, even though he previously expedited the swearing-in of multiple Republicans who won their special elections before election results were even in. It's more likely, say supporters, that Grijalva is being held up to prevent what she has pledged will be her first act in Congress: adding her name to and thus triggering a vote on California Congressmember Ro Khanna's bill for the public release of files related to the federal investigation of sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. “She needs to get sworn in today,” says Khanna, adding that every day Grijalva is not seated in the House “is breaking precedent and depriving people of who they voted for.” Grijalva says, “This is an incredibly scary precedent to set. If you don't agree with the politics of the speaker, then they can keep you out of your duly elected office.” Khanna and Grijalva also discuss the legacy of Grijalva's late father, the longtime Arizona Congressmember Raúl Grijalva; the Trump administration's crackdown on immigration; right-wing attacks on freedom of the press; and more.AP Newsapnews.com/article/house-…Speaker Johnson keeps the House away as he fights to end the government shutdownHouse members' absence during the government shutdown is creating a political dilemma for Republican Speaker Mike Johnson and is testing his leadership.Chicago Tribunechicagotribune.com/2025/10/10/mik…Speaker Mike Johnson keeps the House away as he fights to end ...Mike Johnson is the speaker of a House that is no longer in session.POLITICOpolitico.com/news/2025/10/0…Mike Johnson sticks to no-show shutdown strategy as ... - Politico“There is absolutely no reason for the House to be out of session,” GOP Rep.

Listen, we heard Trump today at the U.N. talking crazy, but also saying Ukraine can get its territories back, and then some. As in, occupy Russia? We'll get into all that in this week's bonus show out later this week for our Patreon members. We'll also break down the crime cabal of Epstein, Trump, and Russia. More soon. For now, Happy New Year! 5786, to be precise. As Jewish families dip apples in honey and blow the shofar, we'd all do well to take inspiration: resilience is the tradition. Which is good, because democracy needs that same resilience right now. Fox News will tell you New York is a crime-hive communist brothel, while Donald Trump–the convicted felon, enthusiastic coup-plotter, and Orban fanboy–cheers on Christian nationalism like it's a Russian gift basket of underage girls. Thanks to Trump, RFK Jr.–a human centipede of conspiracies–used our tax dollars to declare war on Tylenol. MAGA and their Christian nationalist Charlie Kirk tent revival want to drag us back to an idealized 1950s where everyone smoked indoors for their health and also had polio. With MAGA using Charlie Kirk's laser light show memorial to fire up their base, we must and can fight back. That all-important work is in the states. Look to Virginia: a bellwether of the 2026 midterms. This week's guest, Shawn Werner, Organizing and Political Director of Sister District, joins Gaslit Nation to explain why the 2026 midterms start now. But will we even have elections? Here's some hope: groups like Sister District and the Democracy Security Project are training volunteers, protecting elections, and building the infrastructure we need to out-organize the new Jim Crow. Races to watch on election night, for any indication of a blue and angry red MAGA-regrets wave, include Kimberly Pope Adams in House District 82, Lily Franklin at Virginia Tech in District 41, and Leslie Mehta's campaign for the House of Delegates. Win them, and we prove momentum is on our side–and we lay the groundwork to build a victory engine to overcome Trump's desperate shenanigans in 2026. Consider this episode your official invitation to Gaslit Nation's Halloween Party with Sister District on Wednesday, October 22nd, from 6 to 8 p.m. ET. We'll be dressed up in costumes like our lives depend on it and phonebanking for Virginia. Because democracy cannot defend itself. Fight back now, because fighting back in the MAGA Gulag will be infinitely harder. For more on how to join forces with Sister District in these precious days and weeks ahead, and plant seeds of hope wherever you live, check out SisterDistrict.com. And again, don't miss this week's bonus show on Epstein, Trump, and Russia. Look out for that soon.
