Podcast appearances and mentions of viktor orban

Czy Budapeszt będzie miastem, w którym zapadną kluczowe decyzje związane z zakończeniem wojny w Ukrainie? Jakie znaczenie może mieć spotkanie prezydentów USA i Rosji w stolicy Węgier? Co może zyskać na nim Viktor Orban jako gospodarz spotkania? I jaka jest pozycja premiera Węgier przed zaplanowanymi na wiosnę przyszłego roku wyborami parlamentarnymi w tym kraju?M.in. o tym porozmawiamy z prof. Robertem Rajczykiem z Instytutu Europy Środkowej w Lublinie i Uniwersytetu Śląskiego w Katowicach.

durée : 00:36:05 - Cultures Monde - par : Julie Gacon, Mélanie Chalandon - Des milliers de Hongrois sont descendus dans la rue dans deux manifestations rivales lancées par le gouvernement et l'opposition. Le Premier ministre Viktor Orban, tout comme son concurrent le plus sérieux depuis quinze ans, Peter Magyar cherchent à mobiliser, à six mois des élections législatives. - réalisation : Vivian Lecuivre - invités : Joël Le Pavous Journaliste indépendant; Paul Gradvohl Historien, professeur à l'Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, spécialiste de la Hongrie

durée : 00:58:10 - Cultures Monde - par : Mélanie Chalandon, Julie Gacon - Comme chaque vendredi, une émission d'actualité en deux parties : retour de terrain avec Julian Colling qui revient de Russie après avoir été interdit de territoire, puis table-ronde sur la Hongrie, où Viktor Orban est fragilisé tant en interne que dans le domaine de la politique extérieure. - réalisation : Vivian Lecuivre - invités : Julian Colling Journaliste indépendant; Joël Le Pavous Journaliste indépendant; Paul Gradvohl Historien, professeur à l'Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, spécialiste de la Hongrie

In Ungarn haben sich gestern Abend Zehntausende Menschen zu zwei Demonstrationen versammelt – eine zur Unterstützung der Regierung von Viktor Orban, die andere als Protest gegen sie. Weitere Themen: Vor 50 Jahren, am 24. Oktober 1975 streikten in Island 90 Prozent aller Frauen. Was hat sich getan seither und welche Ungleichheiten zwischen den Geschlechtern gibt es immer noch? Das besprechen wir mit unserem Nordeuropa-Korrespondenten. Seit drei Jahren ist Giorgia Meloni der postfaschistischen Partei Fratelli d'Italia Ministerpräsidentin Italiens, seither ist das Land politisch so stabil, wie schon lange nicht mehr. Was ist ihr Rezept? Antworten hat unser Italien-Korrespondent. In Irland gab es in dieser Woche mehrmals Ausschreitungen vor Asylunterkünften. Anlass ist die mutmassliche Vergewaltigung eines Mädchens, angeblich durch einen Asylbewerber. Unser Korrespondent erklärt die Hintergründe.

Bundeskanzler Friedrich Merz hat sprachlich zuletzt einiges im Ungefähren gelassen, bewusst oder unbewusst. Die Stadtbild-Debatte zeugt davon. Der Kanzler kann auch anders. Nachdem einige Unionspolitiker den Unvereinbarkeitsbeschluss der CDU mit der AfD aus dem Jahr 2018 in Frage gestellt hatten, betonte Merz mit Nachdruck, dass es unter ihm als Kanzler keine Zusammenarbeit mit der AfD geben werde. Das Wort Brandmauer kam Merz allerdings nicht oder nicht mehr über die Lippen. Vielleicht auch, weil ihm bewusst ist, dass seine Partei in den ostdeutschen Ländern schon jetzt auf kommunaler und regionaler Ebene bei Abstimmungen Stimmen der AfD immer wieder in Kauf nimmt. Wie sich das Verhältnis von CDU und AfD vor Ort darstellt, das stellen wir in dieser Ausgabe von Politik und Hintergrund dar. Außerdem blicken wir nach Ungarn, wo die Regierungspartei Fidesz von Viktor Orbán ein halbes Jahr vor den Parlamentswahlen unter Druck geraten ist und analysieren den neuerlichen Schwenk des US-Präsidenten Donald Trump, der Sanktionen gegen russische Ölkonzerne verkündet hat.

Nous regardons cette semaine à la droite toute de l'hémicycle du Parlement européen, et de ceux des 27 pays de l'Union européenne, car les rangs de l'extrême droite grossissent d'élection en élection. Le 29 octobre, les Néerlandais pourraient renvoyer en première position le PVV de Geert Wilders, qui a fait échouer sa propre coalition conclue il y a un an avec le centre droit. Il y a quelques semaines, la République tchèque a vu le retour au pouvoir du milliardaire populiste Andrej Babis dont le parti ANO a opéré un net virage à droite. Il rejoint d'autres gouvernements de droite radicale en Europe, avec l'Italie de Giorgia Meloni, la Hongrie de Viktor Orban, et la Slovaquie de Robert Fico. Tous s'affirment trumpistes et les deux derniers sont aussi des amis du président russe Vladimir Poutine.

Medtem ko Donald Trump ruši del Bele hiše, da si bo tam uredil banketno dvorano, so se na ulice ameriških mest zgrnili milijoni protestnikov, ki niso zadovoljni z njegovimi potezami. V tem tednu je med drugim venezuelskemu samodržcu Meduru zagrozil z vojaškim posredovanjem, v napadih na ladje v Karibskem morju pa je umrlo več deset ljudi. Ukrajina za zdaj ne bo dobila izstrelkov tomahawk, Putin pa je ostal brez napovedanega srečanja v Budimpešti. Je pa Viktor Orban začel kampanjo pred aprilskimi parlamentarnimi volitvami. Za kratek čas je bila na radarju mednarodne javnosti tudi Slovenija, v Portorožu so se namreč zbrali voditelji sredozemskih držav Evropske unije. Francoski predsednik je ostal dan dlje, italijanska premierka pa se je Sloveniji tudi tokrat izognila.

(00:47) Vandaag is de nationale herdenkingsdag in Hongarije, maar ook het moment van politiek optreden. Viktor Orbán organiseert de ‘vredesmars', terwijl de oppositieleider Péter Magyar met zijn rivaliserende partij TISZA met de ‘nationale mars' door de straten van Boedapest marcheert. Voeren deze twee partijen een nek-aan-nek race? Europacorrespondent en Hongarijekenner Tijn Sadée over de strijd tussen Orbán en Magyar. (09:39) De buitenlandplannen van de rechtse partijen De afgelopen weken voerden wij gesprekken met Nederlandse politici over hun buitenlandse plannen. Van de zes partijen die bovenaan in de peilingen staan, wilden er drie niet komen: de PVV, VVD en JA21. Daarom nemen wij vandaag hun ideeën door met politiek journalist Sheila Sitalsing en Michel Kerres, geopolitiek redacteur en columnist voor NRC.    Presentatie: Nadia Moussaid.

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.

Vad innebär det att Putin bjuds in till möte med Trump i Ungern trots protester från andra EU-länder? Samtidigt ska EU rusta på grund av Ryssland. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. EU:s enighet sätts på prov när USA:s president Donald Trump meddelar att han ska möta den ryske presidenten Vladimir Putin i Budapest. Värd för mötet blir Ungerns premiärminister Viktor Orbán. Nyheten har mötts av kritik från flera EU-länder som menar att Putin är en efterlyst krigsförbrytare som inte ens ska tillåtas att flyga i EU:s luftrum. Kommer mötet bli av och vad tycker egentligen Bryssel om det? Samtidigt har EU lanserat en plan för snabb militär upprustning för att möta hotet från Putins Ryssland, är det en reaktion i elfte timmen eller kommer EU:s satsningar innebära bättre försvar av unionen?Ukrainas president Volodymyr Zelenskyj har varit i USA för ett möte med Donald Trump. Ett möte som inte resulterade i några Tomahawk-missiler, något Ukraina har efterfrågat. Det här sker efter en period med ryggdunkningar mellan USA och Ukraina. Har den amerikanske presidenten ändrat inställning och vad innebär det för EU?Medverkande: Andreas Liljeheden, Brysselkorrespondent.

Dit keer bespreken we het oprukkende fascisme in Europa. Uiterst-rechtse politici als de Duitse Alice Weidel (AfD), de Italiaanse premier Georgia Meloni, de Hongaarse minister-president Viktor Orbán en onze eigen Geert Wilders maken er volgens onze gast gretig gebruik van. Ze ondermijnen de rechtsstaat en hitsen de bevolking op met ‘eigen volk eerst'-taal. Ondertussen zien we op verschillende plekken in Europa anti-immigratieprotesten oplaaien, die hier in Nederland compleet uit de hand liepen. Hoe herken je het fascisme? Op welke taal moet je letten in de debatten en verkiezingsprogramma's? En valt het oprukkende fascisme in Europa nog te stoppen? Annette van Soest bespreekt het met Rosan Smits, adjunct-hoofdredacteur van De Correspondent en auteur van het boek ‘Dit is fascisme'.

On 16 October 2025, Budapest was announced as a centrepiece of global diplomacy when the US President declared that his Russian counterpart had called to discuss peace in Ukraine, apparently triggered by Tomahawk diplomacy. But what are the real motivations behind Vladimir Putin's and Donald Trump's visits to Hungary, a key EU and NATO member state, just months before Hungary's elections? And what are Viktor Orbán's hopes and fears regarding this plan? Can the war end their way – without participation of Zelenskyy or other European leaders?Wojciech Przybylski hosts Botond Feledy from Red Snow Consultancy who unpacks a multi-level strategic interests of the three actors and offer hypotheses on why Budapest is a focal point for their activities at this time.

1241. La ultraderecha se ha colado en nuestro día a día, y hoy quiero hablarte de un podcast que no se corta un pelo al señalar cómo ese avance se está organizando a nivel internacional. Me refiero a “La familia correcta”, una producción sonora que no deja indiferente a nadie y que he querido destacar en este episodio porque, además de estar muy bien producido, toca un tema que personalmente me preocupa cada vez más. Este documental en formato podcast se estrenó el pasado 3 de junio y forma parte del proyecto Wipot, en colaboración con medios de varios países: Chora Media desde Italia, 444 desde Hungría, Europod desde Bélgica y El País Audio aquí en España. ¿Y de qué trata? Pues de cómo ciertos movimientos políticos y organizaciones vinculadas a la ultraderecha están trabajando, con mucho ahínco, para controlar no solo las instituciones, sino también el cuerpo, las decisiones y el papel de la mujer en la sociedad. A lo largo de seis episodios de unos treinta minutos cada uno —ya disponibles en siete idiomas— las periodistas Elsa Cabria, Francesca Berardi, Claudia Torrisi y Lily Rutai dibujan un mapa preocupante. Un mapa que comienza en Hungría con Viktor Orbán y que se extiende a países como Italia, Polonia, Estados Unidos, y también, aunque en menor medida, a España. Al menos por ahora. Todo esto contado con un rigor periodístico envidiable, acompañado de narraciones cuidadas y con la incomodidad justa para hacernos reflexionar sin caer en el morbo. Lo que antes me parecía algo lejano, que pasaba en otras partes del mundo, hoy me toca más cerca. Lo veo en comentarios, en decisiones políticas recientes, en debates sobre el aborto o la educación, en la forma en que se excluye a quien no encaja en ese molde de “familia perfecta”: hombre, mujer, hijos, boda tradicional. Todo lo que se sale de ese estereotipo está siendo cuestionado, atacado o directamente borrado del debate. Este episodio no es neutral, ya te lo aviso desde el principio. Pero creo que hay momentos en los que no se puede ser neutral. Hay que posicionarse, al menos desde la palabra. Porque cuando hablamos de derechos, de libertades, de la posibilidad de decidir sobre el propio cuerpo o de formar una familia sin seguir un modelo único, estamos hablando de democracia. Y la ultraderecha —sí, esa es la palabra— está sabiendo jugar sus cartas para retroceder en todo eso. Yo no quiero que mis hijas crezcan en un mundo más restrictivo que aquel en el que crecí yo. No quiero tener que volver a discutir lo que ya pensábamos conquistado. Pero me temo que estamos en ese punto. Por eso recomiendo escuchar “La familia correcta”, no solo porque es un ejemplo de podcast bien hecho, sino porque necesitamos estar informados para saber qué está pasando. No solo aquí, sino más allá de nuestras fronteras. Puedes suscribirte a 'La familia correcta' a través de tu plataforma de podcast favorita entrando en: https://pod.link/1815981688_____________Consigue tu entrada para el directo de 'Estamos al mando' el 14 de noviembre en las Podnights Madrid a través de Eventbritehttps://www.eventbrite.es/e/entradas-estamos-al-mando-en-podnights-madrid-1547995098009?aff=oddtdtcreator_____________ ¡Gracias por pasarte 'Al otro lado del micrófono' un día más para seguir aprendiendo sobre podcasting!

CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR 29224 THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT THE ESCALATION OF RHETORIC IN THE UKRAINE WAR,.. FIRST HOUR 9-915 US-Russia Summit in Budapest Amid Ukraine Escalation Fears. Anatol Lieven discusses how US President Trump and Russian President Putin agreed to meet in Budapest to discuss ending the Ukraine conflict following a productive call. The meeting, hosted in Viktor Orbán's Hungary, aims to reduce extreme tensions and avoid direct clashes between Russia and NATO. Discussion points include potential territorial compromise in Donbas and concerns over deploying Tomahawk missiles, which Russia views as a major escalation. 915-930 US-Russia Summit in Budapest Amid Ukraine Escalation Fears. Anatol Lieven discusses how US President Trump and Russian President Putin agreed to meet in Budapest to discuss ending the Ukraine conflict following a productive call. The meeting, hosted in Viktor Orbán's Hungary, aims to reduce extreme tensions and avoid direct clashes between Russia and NATO. Discussion points include potential territorial compromise in Donbas and concerns over deploying Tomahawk missiles, which Russia views as a major escalation. 930-945 China's Tech Espionage and the Difficulty of Reverse Engineering Advanced Chip Tools. Chris Riegel discusses how TSMC and ASML technology face constant threats from Chinese industrial espionage. ASML's chipmaking tools are highly complex, making reverse engineering nearly impossible. Europe is waking up to the risks; recently, the Dutch government seized China-owned chipmaker Nexperia. China is estimated to be two to three years behind US high-end chip technology and requires access to advanced ASML tools to catch up. 945-1000 Hostage Situation and Political Realities in Gaza Ceasefire. Cliff May explains how the Gaza ceasefire focuses on the return of hostages, with 19 (including two Americans) still unaccounted for. Hamas is suspected of withholding hostages to retain bargaining power and resist relinquishing political control in phase two of the peace plan. Rhetoric about regional forces disarming Hamas is dismissed. May notes that in the Middle East, there are only permanent battles, viewing the current truce as a hudna, allowing jihadists to regroup and rearm. SECOND HOUR 10-1015 US Escalates Pressure on Maduro Following Machado's Nobel Prize. Evan Ellis discusses how, following the Nobel Peace Prize awarded to opposition leader María Corina Machado, the US escalated pressure on Venezuela. President Trump authorized CIA operations, coupled with naval deployments and B-52 overflights, to pressure the Maduro regime. The goal is triggering a tipping point where Maduro's inner circle calculates that leaving is preferable to facing US action. Separately, Peru's President Boluarte was ousted due to corruption and the nation's struggle with extreme urban violence and illegal mining. 1015-1030 US Escalates Pressure on Maduro Following Machado's Nobel Prize.

THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 Iran's Women-Led Uprising: Origins, Brutality, and Defiance. Nilo Tabrizy discusses how the Iranian women-led uprising, detailed in For the Sun After Long Nights, was triggered by the 2022 murder of Mahsa Amini by the morality police. The slogan "Woman, Life, Freedom" (Zan, Zendegi, Azadi) is the rallying cry. The regime's brutality is severe, suppressing protests through executions. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) acts as an octopus, maintaining control across society. Defiance continues today, demonstrated by women actively ignoring state-mandated dress codes. 1115-1130 Iran's Women-Led Uprising: Origins, Brutality, and Defiance.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) acts as an octopus, maintaining control across society. Defiance continues today, demonstrated by women actively ignoring state-mandated dress codes. FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 US Military Pressure Campaigns Maduro Amid Silence from Regional Allies. Mary Anastasia O'Grady explains how Venezuela's illegitimate leader, Maduro, faces escalating pressure from the US, including a Navy flotilla, B-52 flights, and authorized CIA operations. The goal is to compel Maduro and his generals, who profit from transnational crime, to flee. The silence from traditional allies like Russia and China suggests they lack political justification to defend Maduro's record. However, Mexico's president offered no comment regarding Nobel Peace Prize winner María Corina Machado, reflecting leftist sympathies. 1215-1230 Tariffs Harm Consumers, Reduce Hiring, and Cause Customs Backlogs. Veronique De Rugy explains how tariffs are costing American consumers and businesses over 80% of the expense, leading to higher prices and reduced corporate margins. The tariff policy is harming the job market, causing 40% of CEOs to pause hiring and investments. Customs authorities are overwhelmed by the volume of small packages now requiring assessment, causing significant backlogs and lost goods for consumers. Special interests are expanding the tariff application to derivative products, such as peanut butter packaged in metal containers. 1230-1245 Russia Debates Orbit and Costs for Post-ISS Space Station. Anatoly Zak explains how Roscosmos faces a debate over the orbit of its new space station: a low-inclination 51-degree orbit or a more expensive near-polar orbit. The polar orbit offers strategic Arctic observation but increases radiation risk and reduces payload capacity. Economic realities may push Roscosmos toward the cheaper 51-degree orbit, possibly using existing ISS infrastructure, to ensure an operational station for cosmonauts by 2031. 1245-100 AM Russia Debates Orbit and Costs for Post-ISS Space Station.

Hungary, once seen as a democratic success story is now widely recognized as one of the EU's most corrupt member states. Regular KB host Liz David-Barrett sits down with József Péter Martin and Áron Hajnal to examine how Viktor Orbán built a system of state capture, and why the EU struggled to respond. They discuss their research evaluating the effectiveness of EU conditionality measures, the challenges of tackling corruption when it's built into the regime itself, and what might happen in Hungary's crucial April 2026 elections.

Während Europa mit sinkenden Geburtenraten kämpft, geht Ungarn einen eigenen Weg. Maßnahmen wie Steuerfreiheit für Mütter, zinsgünstige Hauskredite sowie Schuldenerlass bei Kindergeburt – und nicht Einwanderung – sollen die Bevölkerung verjüngen.

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.

On ignore toujours la position de Marine Le Pen sur les retraites. Le RN semble embarrassé, selon Ruth Elkrief, car la suspension de la réforme par le Premier ministre PS, qu'on l'approuve ou non, est une nouvelle épine pour le parti. Le RN réclamait instamment l'abrogation de cette loi, désormais suspendue, ce qui oblige à interroger ses prises de position. Il n'y a pas d'apocalypse concernant les conséquences des tarifs douaniers de Donald Trump, confirme François Lenglet. Les économistes prévoyaient un ralentissement des exportations chinoises frappées par les taxes américaines, et la montée de l'inflation. Or, ce n'est pas ce qui se produit : les exportations chinoises rebondissent (+ 8,6 % vers les États-Unis, + 8,3 % à l'échelle mondiale) et l'inflation américaine n'a augmenté que très modérément. La « méthode russe » de Viktor Orban selon Marion Van Renterghem. Une enquête d'un collectif d'investigation aboutit à la conclusion que Viktor Orban avait déployé un réseau d'agents secrets pour infiltrer les institutions européennes entre 2012 et 2018. C'est un nouveau rebondissement dans cette relation d'amour, de haine et de trahison entre Orban et l'Union européenne.

Hostia: Alexander Matušek (prezident Zväzu automobilového priemyslu SR) a Partik Križanský (riaditeľ Slovenskej asociácie pre elektromobilitu). | V Európskej únii rezonujú hlasy, ktoré volajú po prehodnotení zákazu spaľovacích motorov. Medzi odporcami je nemecký kancelár Friedrich Merz, šéf europarlamentnej frakcie európskych ľudovcov Manfred Weber. Proti zákazu je aj slovenský premiér Robert Fico a maďarský premiér Viktor Orbán. Pozorujeme v Európe názorový obrat? Čo ho vyvoláva? Je reč o zrušení zákazu, alebo o jeho zmiernení? Zaradí sa k odporcom po vzniku novej vlády aj Česko? Prečo je pre európsky automotive problém vzdať sa v horizonte desiatich rokov spaľovacích motorov? V čom sú súčasné ciele nerealistické? Nie je zmäkčenie ultimáta odďaľovaním nevyhnutného? Ako bude vyzerať trh automobilov o desať rokov? Bude ešte vôbec dopyt po spaľovacích motoroch? Je EÚ dostatočne aktívna v podpore prechodu automobiliek na elektromobilitu a v ochrane konkurencieschopnosti vlastných producentov? Aké výsledky priniesla doposiaľ podpora nákupu elektromobilov? | Európa prehodnocuje zákaz spaľovacích motorov. | Moderuje: Juraj Jedinák; | Diskusiu Z prvej ruky pripravuje Slovenský rozhlas, Rádio Slovensko, SRo1.

Čeští komentátoři většinou tvrdí, že Babiš se nebude snažit Evropskou unii rozvracet ani blokovat její rozhodnutí jako to dělá třeba maďarský premiér Viktor Orbán. Poukazují přitom na Babišovy obchodní zájmy v Evropě.

Elections in Europe are a rollercoaster these days. EU elites were relieved when the pro-EU camp won the parliamentary vote in Moldova, but the Czech legislative election turned out quite differently. Andrej Babiš, a populist and self-proclaimed Trumpist, won the ballot, staging a comeback similar to his colleague in neighbouring Slovakia, Robert Fico. Babiš's victory is clearly a boon to Eurosceptic forces since it was he who, together with Hungary's leader Viktor Orban, set up the Patriots for Europe group in the European Parliament. But does his win have an impact on the EU's help for Ukraine? And on dealing with a more assertive Kremlin, which seems to be testing Europe with drone incursions? We put these questions to two MEPs.

Three years ago, as part of efforts to weaken Putin's war chest, the EU banned imports of Russian crude oil. But those countries with a high dependency on Russia were allowed to continue importing, the idea being they needed more time to adapt. Poland, Germany and the Czech Republic have since stopped. But not Slovakia, and not Hungary. Both still take deliveries of Russian crude through the Soviet-era Druzhba or "Brotherhood" pipeline. In this episode, Attila Steiner, the Hungarian State Secretary for Energy, acknowledges that his country is increasing, not decreasing, dependency on Russian crude, and that Hungary is expanding links with the Druzhba network. That's not how EU sanctions are supposed to work. It's also fundamentally at odds with the REPowerEU plan to stop all Russian oil imports by the end of 2027. The behavior of Hungary, which is facilitating Russian oil exports amid Putin's continued assault on Ukraine, shows contempt for Brussels and Kyiv. Moreover an alternative to Russian oil already exists in the form of the Adria pipeline that can deliver oil from suppliers like Kazakhstan via Croatia. But Steiner using the Adria is neither advantageous for Hungary nor for its giant energy conglomerate MOL. And, in any case, it looks like the pressure is off Hungary to quit Russian crude, at least for now. Steiner credits a recent diplomatic campaign by Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, first with Donald Trump, who is no longer calling on Hungary to change suppliers, and second, with former German Chancellor Angela Merkel, who effectively gave her blessing to continuing Russian crude imports. But that's unlikely to be the end of the story. There's domestic politics to consider too. Hungary imposes a tax on the profits that are partly generated from importing the relatively low-priced Russian crude. Yet prices at the petrol pump remain above the EU average, and that contributes to an already delicate political situation for Orbán's ruling Fidesz party, which is trailing in the polls ahead of elections next year. It's also a delicate situation for Steiner himself. He seems set to go head-to-head with Péter Magyar, the main opposition figure in Hungary who opposes Russian imports, in a forthcoming contest for a parliamentary seat in Budapest. That, Steiner says, will be "an interesting fight".Support the show

VOV1 - Thủ tướng Hungary Viktor Orban vừa tuyên bố sẽ bắn hạ máy bay không người lái của Nga nếu xâm phạm không phận Hungary.

Since his election in 2010, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has transformed Hungary from a democracy into a quasi-authoritarian country. In Hungary today, elections, economic policies, and the media are warped to benefit Orbán and his conservative Fidesz Party. Orbán's government, with its consolidation of executive power, Christian nationalist and anit-LGBTQ policies served as inspiration for Project 2025, the Heritage Foundation's plan for Donald Trump's second term. Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts has called modern Hungary “not just a model for conservative statecraft but the model.”A new documentary film, Democracy Noir, shows how Orbán changed Hungarian politics. In the words of Budapest-based journalist Babbett Oroszi, Orbán has “hacked democracy” – quietly using the levers of democracy, rather than a violent revolution, to accomplish his aims.  The film tells the story of modern Hungary through the eyes of three three female members of Hungary's resistance – reporter Oroszi, nurse and activist Niko Antal, and Tímea Szabó, an opposition leader in Hungary's parliament. Our guest, director Connie Field, has followed Hungarian politics since the country's first years as a democracy in the early 1990s. An American progressive and award-winning documentarian, she has a shrewd eye on how Orban's actions are being mirrored in the United States. The episode also includes discussion of a new leader who observers think has a real chance of upending Orbán's hold on power in the 2026 election.LEARN MORE:Watch a trailer for the film, find out where it's being screened, or request a screeningDownload the discussion guide.Connie Field bio ABOUT THE SHOW The Making Peace Visible podcast is hosted by Jamil Simon and produced by Andrea Muraskin.

Someone argues that Donald Trump threatens democracy, maybe because he's asserting authority against the judiciary or the media or the NGOs. Someone else counterargues that it hardly seems undemocratic for someone to favor someone who won an election (the President) over other people who did not (the judiciary, the media). If anything, it seems undemocratic to allow the unelected people to continue to obstruct and harass elected leaders. The most common response is to say that fine, democracy is about who wins votes, but we also like liberalism, liberalism is under threat, it's too hard to talk about “liberalism” because in the US it sometimes means being left-wing, and so we use the related concept “democracy” as a stand-in. This is reasonable, and some accused-democracy-destroyers like Viktor Orban even accept it for themselves, calling their brand of government “illiberal democracy”. But I think there's an even stronger response that doesn't require admitting to a bait-and-switch: democracy isn't just about having an election. It's about having more than one election. https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/defining-defending-democracy-contra

It's Wednesday, September 24th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Chinese Communists restrict Christian online content Bitter Winter Magazine reports that Communist officials in China published new rules last week to significantly restrict religious content online. The religious liberty magazine noted, “It effectively criminalizes spontaneous religious expression online, isolates clergy from global religious discourse, and places sacred speech under the watchful eye of state censors.” The regulations allow only registered religious organizations to post preaching and religious education online. Clergy must promote socialist values. And they are specifically prohibited from evangelizing young people, reports China Aid.  But, in Matthew 19:14, Jesus said “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of Heaven.” Hungary to designate Antifa a terrorist group Hungary plans on designating Antifa as a terrorist organization following the example of the United States.  Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orbán recently told state media, “Antifa is a terrorist organization. . . . They have come to Hungary, beaten peaceful people in the streets, beaten some half to death.” This comes after U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Monday, designating Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization. Trump wrote on Truth Social, “I am designating ANTIFA, A SICK, DANGEROUS, RADICAL LEFT DISASTER, AS A MAJOR TERRORIST ORGANIZATION. I will also be strongly recommending that those funding ANTIFA be thoroughly investigated.” Man guilty of Trump assassination attempt tries to stab himself in court Ryan Routh, the madman who holed up in a sniper's nest with an assault rifle at President Trump's West Palm Beach golf club, tried to stab himself with a pen in a Florida courtroom Tuesday after he was convicted of attempting to assassinate the then-GOP nominee, reports the New York Post. The jury noted the 17 “reconnaissance” trips he allegedly made to Trump's golf course, and what they described as his excessive stalking of Trump, prior to the September 15, 2024 incident in question. A dramatic scene unfolded as jurors were leaving the courtroom when Routh took a pen and started trying to jab himself in the neck. Courtroom marshals sprung to action and dragged him out of the room as his daughter, Sara Routh, screamed at her father. She yelled, “Dad I love you. Don't do anything. I'll get you out. He didn't hurt anybody.” There is no video footage of Ryan Routh attempting to stab himself with the pen because cameras were not allowed in the courtroom. A few minutes later, Routh was brought back into the courtroom with shackles on. He wasn't wearing the jacket and tie from earlier and his white shirt didn't show signs of blood. The judge set his sentencing date for December 18, where he will face up to life in prison. Trump rebuked globalism and open borders at United Nations U.S. President Donald Trump addressed the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly yesterday. President Trump rebuked globalism, unchecked migration, open borders, and climate change activism. Listen. TRUMP: “The entire globalist concept of asking successful industrialized nations to inflict pain on themselves and radically disrupt their entire societies must be rejected completely and totally. And it must be immediate. That's why in America, I withdrew from the fake Paris Climate Accord.” He also called for the protection of religious liberty. TRUMP: “Together, let us defend free speech and free expression. Let us protect religious liberty, including for the most persecuted religion on the planet today. It's called Christianity.” HHS announced review of abortion kill pill LifeNews reports the U.S. Health and Human Services Department is launching a national review of the abortion kill pill mifepristone.  HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. accused the Biden administration of downplaying serious complications of the dangerous drug. Obviously, it is used in the killing of unborn babies. Not surprisingly, it is also linked with serious complications for pregnant women. These include hemorrhage, emergency room visits, and sepsis.  Proverbs 24:11-12 says, “Deliver those who are drawn toward death, and hold back those stumbling to the slaughter. If you say, ‘Surely we did not know this,' does not He who weighs the hearts consider it? He who keeps your soul, does He not know it? And will He not render to each man according to his deeds?” CDC no longer recommending MMRV shot for toddlers The vaccine advisory committee for the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention adopted new recommendations for the child immunization schedule last Thursday.  In an 8-3 vote, the committee voted to no longer recommend the MMRV vaccine for toddlers. The combination shot is for measles, mumps, rubella, and varicella. Instead, the committee recommended a standalone vaccine for varicella, also known as chickenpox, and another shot for the other three infections.    The committee noted increased risk of seizures among toddlers who received the MMRV vaccine.  Most religious state is Mississippi; Least religious state is Vermont Pew Research released data on the religiosity of states in America. The most religious state was Mississippi with 50% of adults expressing a high degree of religiosity. Next up was South Carolina, South Dakota, Louisiana, and Tennessee. The least religious state was Vermont with only 13% of adults expressing a high degree of religiosity. Other states with people of low religiosity were New Hampshire, Maine, Nevada, and Oregon.  Religiosity was measured based on importance of religion, religious attendance, frequency of prayer, and belief in God.  73% of Americans now feel safe in their town And finally, a new survey from Gallup found that more people than ever feel safe where they live despite the rise in conflicts between countries.  Gallup's Global Safety Report found 73% of adults worldwide said they feel safe walking alone at night in their city or area. That's up from 65% in 2006. Feelings of safety are increasing but remain relatively low in sub-saharan Africa and Latin America. The region with the most dramatic increase in feelings of safety since 2006 is post-Soviet Eurasia.  Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, September 24th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

So where exactly is Trump's America? According to the Brookings fellow Jonathan Rauch, the world's largest economic, military and cultural power is “half way to Hungary” - the small, landlocked Central European country run by an equally small and landlocked man called Viktor Orban. For Rauch, this suggests that America is on its way to becoming the sort of pathetically petty patrimonial state that the wannabe dictator Orban is trying to establish in Hungary. But the idea of the world's dominant superpower being “halfway to Budapest” sounds more like the title of a characteristically absurd central European novel. It suggests that Trump's America is, in fact, currently lost in the mid-Atlantic. It's nowhere. And if making America great again really does require borrowing anything from a country as small and landlocked as Hungary, then I fear for the historical significance of both Trump and his MAGA movement. Surely they could come up with a more original playbook than that?1. America is Following the “Hungarian Playbook” of Modern Authoritarianism Rauch warns that Trump is deploying Viktor Orbán's four-part strategy: sue critics into bankruptcy, use regulatory power to threaten licenses, buy out media outlets, and intimidate advertisers. This represents a new form of authoritarianism that doesn't require tanks or military coups.2. The Rise of the “Woke Right” - Postmodern Tactics Adopted by Conservatives The right has borrowed from postmodern philosophy the idea that there's no objective truth, only power and narrative control. This creates a “postmodern right” that focuses on winning stories rather than establishing facts - exemplified by claims about vaccine dangers or election fraud.3. Constitutional Crisis is Already Underway, Not Coming Rauch argues we're not heading toward a constitutional crisis - we're already in one. He points to executive orders targeting political enemies and the “naked politicization” of prosecutorial systems as evidence that democratic norms have already been breached.4. 2028, Not 2026, Will Be the Real Test While Rauch expects the 2026 midterms to be relatively fair (70-80% likelihood), he's deeply concerned about 2028. The administration won't have enough time to fully implement election interference by 2026, but 2028 could see systematic attempts to rig the democratic process.5. Resistance Requires Slowing Down Authoritarian “Shock and Awe” The most effective resistance strategy is to slow down Trump's rapid implementation of authoritarian measures through litigation and civil society pushback. Early capitulation doesn't work - it only invites more demands. The key is preventing the normalization of antidemocratic behavior.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

CELÝ ZÁZNAM STUDIA N LIVE NAJDETE NA HEROHERO.CO/STUDION. PŘEDPLAŤTE SI NÁS A SLEDUJTE VŠECHNY EPIZODY V PLNÉ VERZI Maďarský premiér Viktor Orbán demonstruje svou moc na systematickém ponižování menšin, říká ve Studiu N politoložka Zora Hesová z Ústavu politologie FF Univerzity Karlovy. „Když mu to prošlo na Romech, na migrantech nebo na trans lidech, projde mu to i na dalších. Společnost, která se proti tomu nepostavila, ztrácí možnost bránit se dál. Je rozdělená a oslabená,“ říká.  Podle reportéra zahraniční rubriky Seznam Zpráv Filipa Harzera už Orbán utáhl šrouby ve společnosti natolik, že stát vykazuje znaky autoritářského režimu. „Neustálá propaganda ve státních a spřátelených médiích médiích je tak servilní, až je směšná. Je to, jako když se Husák v sedmdesátých letech líbal na letišti s Brežněvem.“ Maďarsko Hesová přirovnává k feudální společnosti. „Abyste vystudovali, našli práci, měli zajištění a přístup k lepším zdrojům, musíte se spojit s režimem a jednat tak, jak se od vás očekává. A ideálně vstoupit do strany,“ popisuje. Lidé, kteří jsou protirežimní nebo součástí nějaké menšiny, mají podle ní pocit, že už je pro ně Maďarsko nepřátelským prostředím. „A ti, kteří žijí v souladu s režimem, žijí ve feudálních vztazích. Pro ty, kteří si to uvědomují, je to forma nedůstojného života.“ O Orbánův scénář autokratizace se podle jejího mínění snaží řada evropských politiků. Dají se podle ní rozpoznat podle těchto prvků: „Měli bychom si všímat stigmatizace jakýchkoliv slabých skupin – například menšin nebo cizinců. Časté je také nepřátelství vůči liberalismu, vůči Evropské unii jako takové nebo argumentace národem. Tito politici podněcují k vystupování z dlouhodobých solidárních pozic, například vůči Ukrajině, a extrémně zjednodušují komplikované problémy – třeba Green Deal, u kterého redukují klimatickou krizi na diesel,“ vyjmenovává politoložka. Parlamentní volby se v Maďarsku budou konat v dubnu příštího roku. „Obrazil jsem pár středoevropských voleb a vím, že všechny volby dopadnou hůř, než si teď myslíme,“ říká Harzer. Jak velká je šance, že někdo odstaví Orbána od moci? V jakých skutečných problémech se ocitá jeho země? A jak dnes vypadá v Maďarsku odvaha?

John welcomes Atlantic staff writer Anne Applebaum back to the show to discuss her new cover story in The Atlantic on the devastating civil war in Sudan. Applebaum—whose 2004 tome “Gulag: A History” won the 2004 Pulitzer Prize for general nonfiction and whose most recent book, “Autocracy, Inc.” comes out in paperback this month—explains how anarchy, greed, and nihilism have replaced the liberal world order in Sudan; the role that Donald Trump and Elon Musk played in the country's downward spiral; and why the same forces are coming for the countries of the rich world next. She also lays out the evidence that Trump is bent on turning the U.S. into a bigger, badder, more authoritarian version of Viktor Orban's Hungary.
