Neither Zelensky, nor Péter Magyar, nor Brussels can blackmail Hungarians! We have introduced protected fuel prices for Hungarians, for farmers, and for Hungarian businesses!
Both the war involving Iran and Zelensky’s oil blockade threaten a severe energy crisis, which is why the national government has reduced the fuel tax and introduced protected prices at petrol stations.
Meanwhile, Péter Magyar continues his shameless political theatre. Everyone knows exactly whose interests the leader of the left truly represents, as he and his representatives in Brussels have repeatedly voted in favor of financial support for Ukraine and the ban on cheap Russian energy.
The national government continues to stand by Hungarian families, farmers and businesses, and we will not give in to blackmail. That is why Viktor Orbán and Fidesz remain the safe choice.
What is the situation, Szandra, is there any fuel available?
Yes, there is, and fortunately we are now going to refuel, and luckily we can do it at the protected price.
The government had to act quickly, because Péter Magyar, working together with the Ukrainians and Zelensky, is trying to bring down the Hungarian government. To achieve this, they wanted to trigger an energy price explosion. But we have taken action: we introduced the protected price, and we also have strategic reserves. So the deception that Péter Magyar has been performing recently — especially while remaining silent for weeks about the shutdown of the Druzhba pipeline — is nothing more than a smokescreen.
We will continue to stand on the side of Hungarian families, Hungarian farmers and Hungarian businesses, and we will protect them.
On German highways gasoline already costs 1000 forints per liter. Now everyone can see: when we say that without cheap Russian oil gasoline would cost 1000 forints, we are telling the truth. When Péter Magyar, “Captain Shell,” talks about how they will “find a way to break away,” and when a Tisza party MEP recently voted in Brussels for the rapid ban of Russian energy, they are working toward 1000-forint gasoline.
Would you be happy to pay 1000 forints for a liter of gasoline and three times as much for utilities as you do now? If not, then Fidesz is the safe choice for you as well. 😉🧡💪🏻
1️⃣ Multi-layer enemy construction
Excerpt
“Neither Zelenskyy, nor Péter Magyar, nor Brussels can blackmail the Hungarians.”
Technique
Three different actors are merged into a single enemy bloc:
- foreign leader → Zelenskyy
- domestic political opponent → Péter Magyar
- international institution → Brussels
Thus, the communication creates a coalition of external and internal enemies.
Goal
- link the opposition to foreign interests
- place domestic political debate into a geopolitical conflict frame
- reinforce the narrative of “national government vs external forces”
Effect
The reader may feel that:
➡️ Hungary is under attack from several directions
➡️ the domestic opposition is cooperating with these actors
2️⃣ Patriotic framing
Excerpt
“the national government stands by Hungarian families, farmers and businesses”
Technique
The political conflict is framed as national interest vs hostile forces.
The communication repeatedly emphasizes:
- Hungarian families
- Hungarian farmers
- Hungarian businesses
Goal
- trigger emotional identification
- present the government as the defender of national interests
Effect
The reader may feel that:
➡️ supporting the government means supporting the nation
3️⃣ Intent attribution without evidence
Excerpt
“Péter Magyar, working together with the Ukrainians, wanted to trigger an energy price explosion.”
Technique
The communication assigns malicious intent to political opponents without presenting a clear mechanism or evidence.
Goal
- demonize the political opponent
- create a moral conflict
Effect
The reader may feel that:
➡️ the opponent is not simply a political rival
➡️ but someone deliberately harming the country
4️⃣ Fear appeal using economic consequences
Excerpt
“Fuel will cost 1000 forints per liter.”
Technique
A dramatic future scenario is presented:
- 1000 HUF fuel price
- triple utility costs
This is a classic economic fear narrative.
Goal
- create uncertainty and fear
- dramatize the stakes of the election
Effect
The reader may feel that:
➡️ if another political force comes to power, a severe economic crisis will follow
5️⃣ Hero framing
Excerpt
“the government stepped in and introduced a protected fuel price”
Technique
The government is presented as a crisis-managing hero.
Narrative structure:
- threat (energy crisis)
- enemy (opposition + foreign actors)
- savior (government)
Goal
- emphasize the competence of the government
- strengthen political legitimacy
6️⃣ False causality
Excerpt
“Péter Magyar and Zelenskyy are working toward 1000-forint fuel prices.”
Technique
A complex global phenomenon (energy prices) is reduced to a simple political cause.
In reality, energy prices depend on many factors:
- global oil prices
- refinery capacity
- taxes
- geopolitics
- exchange rates
Goal
- simplify complex economic processes
- assign a clear scapegoat
7️⃣ “Us vs them” political polarization
Excerpt
“We will protect Hungarians… therefore Fidesz is the safe choice.”
Technique
The political landscape is divided into two camps.
Us
- the government
- Hungarian families
Them
- the opposition
- Brussels
- Ukraine
Goal
- identity-based political mobilization
- simplify the voter’s decision

- The election is framed as stability vs crisis
Main propaganda techniques
