Arriving in Germany for the Munich Security Conference, US Vice President JD Vance criticized European mainstream parties for marginalizing right-wing forces such as Germany’s Alternative für Deutschland, arguing that this undermines democracy and freedom of speech. His remarks came just days after Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán hosted AfD co-chair Alice Weidel in Budapest for a historic meeting.

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán delivers a hard blow on EU leadership following Donald Trump’s announcement that negotiations to end the war in Ukraine will begin immediately. As Washington appears to be sidelining the EU in the talks, Orbán attributes this to Brussels’ failed diplomacy and weak leadership.

With just ten days remaining until the most significant elections in Germany’s post-WWII history, the country has been struck by yet another terror attack committed by an Afghan migrant. According to police, the 24-year-old asylum seeker drove a car into a group of pedestrians in Munich, injuring at least 28 people. In response, Alternative für Deutschland’s Alice Weidel called for a ‘migration turnaround’.

After weeks of protracted negotiations, Herbert Kickl’s FPÖ and the Austrian People’s Party have failed to reach a coalition agreement. With Kickl returning his mandate, Austria now faces four possible paths forward, including the prospect of an early election.

After speaking with both Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Donald Trump announced that negotiations to end the war in Ukraine would begin ‘immediately’. Meanwhile, Pentagon chief Peter Hegseth informed NATO defence ministers that the US is gradually withdrawing from Europe.

Roberta Metsola and Ursula von der Leyen are at the centre of a growing scandal involving undisclosed EU millions channelled to pro-EU media to shape the narrative ahead of the 2024 European elections. The case bears striking similarities to the USAID controversy and further erodes public trust in institutions and the media.

Viktor Orbán hosted Alice Weidel, co-chair of the German right-wing party Alternative für Deutschland (AfD), in Budapest on Tuesday, becoming the first sitting prime minister to officially receive one of the party’s leaders.

US president Donald Trump imposed 25 per cent tariffs on all steel and aluminium imports to the United States on Monday, a decision that will heavily impact the European Union’s economy. President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen promised proportionate countermeasures, signalling a broader trade war between Washington and Brussels in the near future.

Police Scotland have ruled out third-party involvement in the case of the missing Hungarian twin sisters in Aberdeen. After the bodies of two women were found in the water following three weeks of intensive search efforts, Henrietta and Eliza Huszti’s father told Hungarian media that he does not believe his daughters committed suicide, suggesting the possibility of murder.

As Donald Trump has pulled the brakes on US foreign assistance—allocated through USAID to influence domestic affairs via media and NGOs in foreign countries, including Hungary—, the globalist elite has already devised a plan to maintain its network without the US agency. According to statements from progressive media and politicians, Brussels could step in to replace USAID, continuing to fund actors that discredit sovereign governments and undermine their legitimacy.

After Donald Trump’s withdrawal from the World Health Organization (WHO) and the imposition of US sanctions on officials of the International Criminal Court (ICC), the Hungarian government is considering reevaluating its relations with both institutions. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has long advocated for the dismantling of the outdated structures of the liberal world order, a process that is now accelerating under Trump’s second presidency.

While at least one reported Antifa attack took place in Budapest over the weekend, marking the second anniversary of the brutal assaults that occurred on the streets of the Hungarian capital in 2023, Ilaria Salis—one of the perpetrators, who has been hiding behind European Parliamentary immunity since the summer of 2024—continues to clash with Hungarian State Secretary Zoltán Kovács on X, falsely accusing Hungary of violating her fundamental rights during her custody in the country.

Philadelphia Eagles defeated Kansas City Chiefs in an unexpectedly one-sided game on Sunday in New Orleans at Super Bowl LIX. From Donald Trump’s historic attendance at the biggest American sporting event of the year to Kendrick Lamar’s controversial halftime show, we have compiled the most memorable moments of the night.

‘Yesterday, we were the heretics. Today, we are the mainstream. Once, we were dismissed as the past; today, we are the future,’ Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orbán declared in his speech at the Patriots for Europe (PfE) EP group’s summit in Madrid. Over the weekend the most prominent figures of the European right gathered in the Spanish capital under the banner ‘Make Europe Great Again’ (MEGA) to deliver a clear message to the Western mainstream: they are more than ready to take over Brussels.

‘Across the Atlantic, MAGA eagerly awaits the rise of MEGA, seeing in the European right a responsible and reasonable partner—unlike those who have cooperated with and been funded by the globalist elite. There will likely never be a better moment for MEGA to emerge.’

Poland’s Constitutional Court has initiated legal proceedings against PM Donald Tusk and his associates, accusing them of attempting a coup d’état by using executive power to undermine the judiciary, dismantle opposition media, and suppress political opponents. The announcement comes amid the presidential campaign, ahead of one of the most pivotal elections in May—one that will not only determine Poland’s future but also have far-reaching consequences for Europe.

In an interview with Fox News, Hungarian Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade Péter Szijjártó cautioned against underestimating US President Donald Trump’s dealmaking skills concerning the recently announced Gaza plan. Szijjártó drew a parallel to the skepticism that initially surrounded the Abraham Accords, which nonetheless succeeded in bringing a new dimension to life in the Middle East.

Some of the largest Western mainstream media outlets have been caught red-handed in the growing scandal surrounding USAID, with POLITICO, The New York Times, and others accused of receiving funding from the controversial agency. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán expressed his gratitude to US President Donald Trump for ‘uncovering and putting an end’ to USAID’s foreign interference.

Balázs Orbán pushed back against accusations from the Hungarian opposition outlet Telex regarding the government’s alleged avoidance of giving interviews to such media.

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico has accused the opposition, in collaboration with NGOs, of attempting to oust him through a so-called colour revolution—mass demonstrations aimed at toppling the government. A closer look at the organizers of the protests reveals a familiar network with links to George Soros and, unsurprisingly, USAID. A clear regional pattern is emerging, yet Hungary remains unaffected.

At least eleven people were killed in a mass shooting at an adult education centre in Sweden, in what Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson described as the worst shooting in the country’s history. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán extended his condolences to the Swedish people.

USAID’s slogan ‘From the American people’ has become extremely controversial since Donald Trump’s crackdown on the agency, during which his team exposed its most dubious tactics in promoting a woke, progressive agenda worldwide using millions of US taxpayer dollars. Hungary has also been significantly affected, with government-critical media outlets and NGOs receiving substantial grants.

According to Hungarian intelligence reports, Ukrainian secret services have launched an operation against Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, involving disinformation and fake news reports from both Hungarian and foreign media outlets. The operation aims to discredit Orbán on the international stage.

Elon Musk takes aim at the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), a US government-funded NGO, calling it a ‘scam’ and ‘rife with corruption’.
