Hungary has described Russia as a “threat to Europe and the global order” in guidelines for its delegation attending the UN General Assembly next month, Der Spiegel reported on Aug. 26.

The move marks a dramatic shift in Hungary’s stance since Prime Minister Peter Magyar defeated the Russia-friendly Viktor Orban in elections earlier this year.

“Hungary condemns Russian military aggression and fully supports Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity within its internationally recognized borders,” the document states.

“Russia’s behavior poses a threat to Hungary, Europe, and the global order,” it adds.

    Dear Hungary - thank you for kicking your idiot fascist to the curb finally. I hope we can follow your lead very soon.

      They are a kind of blueprint we could follow.

      Has anyone from the prior regime actually been punished? I’m not talking about committees and investigations.

      Did any of the TRAITORS that COULED THE COUNTRY get punished yet?

      (The actual perpetrators, not some fall guy)

        Some people who were big but not the biggest got arrested, one of the top dudes tried to revolving door himself into a Chinese corp but that got torpedoed by the new gov.

        There are cases running and the Office for the Protection and Reclamation of National Wealth got established a few weeks ago.

        It’s moving forward I guess. You can’t really break out the guillotines because the EU does not like that.

    The greatest threat is the US and Nato, and the decision in 2008 to expand Nato to Ukraine and Georgia. And all the bubblehead children who couldn’t think further than “Njet? Oh haha what they gonna do huh?”. A complete lack of realism and diplomacy.

    Russia has trouble conquering a Nato armed Ukraine, but somehow it’s a huge threat to all of Europe combined. Make it make sense.

      For real. If anything, Trump has shown that he will ALWAYS HELP RUSSIA.

      Milania is “Russian bride” number three and her father worked for a Russian cucked intelligence service. Trump himself released proof that Russia wanted to sabotage Joe Biden and helped Trump win. Trump has dismantled all of the DOJ and FBI units that combat Russian money laundering and Russian oligarchs. Trump sold golden visa citizenships to Russian oligarchs who he says are “very fine people”. Trump repeatedly attacks Zelensky and sabataged our weapons deliveries for political gain which helped Russia. When Putin visited Alaska, Trump had our troops ON THEIR KNEES rolling red carpet for Putin.

      This is the most clear and present danger we have ever seen and an administration of the most open and flagrant TREASON BY THE NOST OBVIOUSLY COMPROMISED INDIVIDUALS.

      THEY ALL NEED TO BE PUBLICLY PUNISHED NOW.

      In reality though, nothing will happen except a few millionaires that we never heard of that will go to prison in 5 -10 years. All of the billionaires will be richer AND WILL DO THIS AGAIN ON ANOTHER 50 YEARS.

      History repeats because of our own stupidity and it’s so stupid that we can’t just eliminate the root cause of all of this

      *I should say that this doesn’t even touch on all of the OTHER corruption via Israel and corporate greed. This is just Russia’s connection with trump

      Make it make sense? But what about your opinion then? Would you actually change it or just keep on going the same? Given that you are here, today and with that opinion, paints a fairly clear picture that you are not interested in any sense.

          Let’s just follow your logic for a moment. The USA can not even keep a straight open against a non existing Navy. Why does Russia not defeating Ukraine = weak but the USA is, despite this, such a threat? Both can not be true at the same time, since the same logic applies?

    Finland Identifies Russia as Its Main Security Threat in New Defense Study

    The Finnish Defence Forces have published a study outlining the main security risks the country could face in the coming years. The document identifies a potential Russian attack aimed at seizing Finnish territory as the primary threat … The authors also warn that Finland may face growing hybrid pressure and information influence aimed at shaping public attitudes [and highlight] the broader rivalry between the United States, China and Russia, which is expected to have an increasing impact on Finland, including in the Arctic …

    Dear Hungary - you were invited to Europe then carried on in the most terrible ways. Decide what you want, pick a way and stick with it.

      They picked a way a long while ago, and now picked a new one. There are democracies where these kinds of changes happen much more frequently. The only places where they “stick with it” quite likely aren’t democratic, like Russia for example.

      Unfortunately this will probably common behaviour in Western democracies. People will be voting for openly pro russian politicians.
