Hungary is sending a clear message: no one shall try to enter the EU through Hungary illegally, it will not be successful.
Polish PM Donald Tusk has been caught spreading disinformation on X, misleadingly portraying a recent speech by Hungarian PM Viktor Orbán as evidence that he is contemplating Hungary’s exit from the European Union. In doing so, Tusk appeared to be attempting to discredit the right-wing opposition PiS party—which maintains close ties with Orbán—just weeks ahead of the presidential election in May.
The Democratic Party of Korea is reportedly exploring ways to incorporate incentives similar to the Hungarian approach on family policy into its finalized policy package ahead of the presidential elections in June. South Korea is among the countries most severely affected by demographic decline—a crisis already having negative impacts across multiple sectors.
The draft family policy framework of US President Donald Trump’s administration has recently circulated in the media, with a $5,000 incentive for mothers—dubbed the ‘baby bonus’—stealing the spotlight. However, behind this lies a far more extensive and multi-layered approach, incorporating initiatives inspired by Hungary’s world-renowned and successful family policy model.
‘Certain forces, possibly linked to Brussels, might attempt to interfere with the democratic voice of the Polish nation,’ warned Law and Justice (PiS) lawmaker Janusz Kowalski in an interview with Hungarian Conservative. In the conversation, Kowalski discussed the prospects ahead of the upcoming presidential election in Poland and also addressed the current state of Polish–Hungarian relations.
Over the weekend both pro-government and opposition rallies were held across Hungary’s capital, Budapest. The demonstrations sent a clear message: both sides are preparing for next year’s election with full force, lending the 2026 parliamentary contest a level of significance not witnessed in Hungary’s political history for quite some time—and demonstrating that the country’s democracy is very much alive.
‘Society thrives as a partnership across generations, with intact families of mothers and fathers raising children as its cornerstone. Post-liberalism taps this spirit and spurns individualism’s drift for a natalism that rebuilds us all. Data screams crisis; incentives like tax credits and vouchers answer it…Hungary’s incentives and Florida’s successes offer a starting point.’
Hungarians will soon vote in a national consultation on Ukraine’s potential EU membership. Ballots are now being printed with strict security measures, as the government invites citizens to express their views on the controversial accession.
The European Parliament is set to debate Hungary’s new legislative package, which includes amendments to the law on the right of assembly—labelled by progressives as a ‘Pride ban’—as well as stricter regulations on foreign-funded NGOs and media outlets. However, as democratic as it is, the EP has ‘forgotten’ to invite Hungary to participate in or respond during the debate.
