‘Hungary has set the standard for any other nation on what it really means to protect human rights, religious freedom for all, and protecting the family as well…For us in the United States, knowing that in Europe there is a country that really stands on fundamental principles and morals and values is very exciting for us and that’s why we’re seeing a great partnership between the Trump administration and the Hungarian administration, which will continue to grow,’ bishop and human rights activist Dr Paul Murray told our site.
‘We’ve already seen a noticeable shift in tone that reflects the strong potential for a new golden age in US–Hungary relations under President Trump’s leadership. The renewed emphasis on mutual respect, shared strategic interests, and a commitment to sovereignty has been evident in early diplomatic engagements. However, this is just the beginning. There’s significant work ahead to translate this positive momentum into concrete outcomes,’ Bryan Leib has told our site.
‘I was just in Poland. They’re very interested in doing a CPAC in Poland, which I think could have a positive impact from what I can see. If you’re in European politics, it’d be nice if Prime Minister Orbán had more allies in the EU,’ Chairman of the American Conservative Union Matt Schlapp told our site.
‘The EU will now present the new multiannual financial framework in the spring. And this is a consensual project. So all member states have to accept the Commission’s proposal. And therefore, obviously, for negotiating, Hungary can be there any time. This is a great ground for us to change things and, I would say, create a level playing field for us in the negotiations,’ she also told Hungarian Conservative.
‘The stakes in the upcoming election involve securing America’s borders, achieving energy independence, and revitalizing the economy to reverse inflation and job loss. A return to Trump’s policies will ensure national security, bolster the U.S. economy, and reinforce American strength on the world stage. Trump’s approach emphasizes “peace through strength” and aims to curb crime,’ Bryan Leib, Senior Fellow at the Center for Fundamental Rights told Hungarian Conservative.
‘In Hungary, the welcome and the love that the state of Israel gets are very different. So is the intolerance of the intolerance, which is the most important thing, because you don’t have to agree with everything I say, but the fact is that you are not tolerating intolerance. If you are letting the violent people enjoy their free speech, like it happened in Berkeley, you are preventing the freedom of speech of the people who were not violent…And I think on that issue, Hungary got it right.’
‘You [in Hungary] imbue your young people in primary and secondary school with a sense of Hungary’s place in history…I mean, this was the country that turned back the invasions from Turkey and the Muslim lands and saved European civilization hundreds of years ago…We need to teach history in our schools, teach our young people that their country is something to be proud of.’
‘We’ve looked at other things involving Hungary that have been done through the State Department, like the change in the visa programme, which seemed like it was perhaps punitive. So we tried to get some records from the State Department about that. We filed a lawsuit. But we haven’t been looking at the EU-Hungary relationship. That’s something that is out of the scope of our usual tools, lawsuits and public records requests.’
‘If you’re not a sovereign nation, then you’re just a land mass where people can come, they can live, they can work, they can seek refuge regardless of what the laws actually are…You see that now you have Venezuelan gangs who have taken over American communities that didn’t have a single presence in the United States just a few years ago. This has all happened in the last couple of years under the Biden-Harris policies. ‘
‘I think being in the conservative world, you’re used to the media fabricating things. So, it’s nice to see with my own eyes, and to hear from the people that live here. Obviously,Hungary is viewed favourably by the right wing. I know Donald Trump and Viktor Orbán have met several times, Tucker Carlson has been here. So, in the circles I run in, people have great things to say about Hungary.’
At a time when public debate is increasingly polarized and superficial, Hungarian Conservative remains committed to depth and independent thought.
