Hungary has come up with an effective program dubbed Hungary Helps as an answer to the migration crisis, which has already helped 200 Syrian refugee families return to their homes.
Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó said a Brussels–Kyiv alliance is seeking to remove Hungary’s national government as an obstacle to fast-tracking Ukraine’s EU accession, arguing that political change in Budapest is central to the plan.

Super Bowl LX was viewed by 124.9 million people last Sunday. That is a drop of 2.8 million viewers from last year’s audience of 127.7 million. Puerto Rican reggaeton singer Bad Bunny’s performance was viewed by more people than the actual game. However, that is typical, and it lost even more viewers compared to the last halftime show by Kendrick Lamar, going from 133.5 to 128.2 million viewers.

At the Budapest Global Dialogue 2026, FM Péter Szijjártó accused Brussels of mishandling every major crisis over the past 25 years, while highlighting that Hungary’s break from EU leadership has led to favourable outcomes for the country.

Activists from the UK-based Women’s Safety Initiative took to the streets of London dressed as the viral right-wing meme Amelia to protest migrant-linked violence against women.

The Seattle Seahawks claimed a commanding victory over the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LX, pairing defensive dominance with a historic MVP performance from Kenneth Walker III. Yet beyond the scoreline, the championship night was equally defined by political controversy surrounding the halftime show and its sharp cultural divide across American audiences.
