Hungary’s Foreign Minister as an Echo

What Szijjártó Péter is really doing is not diplomacy, but repetition.
He does not present facts or concrete EU decisions. Instead, he repeats a single narrative: Brussels equals war, Hungary equals peace.
The European Union is portrayed as illegitimate, rule-breaking, and dangerous, while any domestic criticism is labeled “pro-war” or “Brussels-controlled.”
He never openly calls for leaving the EU, but systematically undermines its credibility and legitimacy.
In Hungary, he functions as the government’s echo — a “kakadu“, repeating the same message over and over instead of practicing real diplomacy..

Szentkirályi Alexandra’s Trunk Video: Fear as Propaganda

Fidesz politician Szentkirályi Alexandra appears in a video next to a car, showing a bound man locked in the trunk, using the scene to spread fear about Ukraine and the EU.
The narrative mirrors well-known Kremlin disinformation about organ, drug, and human trafficking.
The man was later identified as a government-linked employee.
This video cannot be misinterpreted.

When Propaganda Replaces Truth

The same propaganda is coming at us from everywhere.
And let’s add what is rarely said out loud:
the questions of the so-called “national consultation” are openly based on claims that are not true.

This is no longer debate, information, or dialogue.
This is a Hungary where truth no longer matters — only winning does, at any cost.

“A Brussels Government = War” — Hungarian Government Spokesperson’s Claim

This statement was written by Eszter Vitályos, acting as a Hungarian government spokesperson:

“Brussels has decided that Europe is going to war.
This decision has already been made.
A Brussels government = war.
A national government = a chance for peace.”

This is not analysis or opinion — it is an official government narrative, openly framing the European Union as a war actor and national governments as the only path to peace.

Never forget who said it, and in what role.

Hungary 2025: When a Government Office Repeats Russian Propaganda

English subtitles are available via the CC button.

In 2025, Hungary’s Sovereignty Protection Office launched its own state-produced talk show, presented as expert analysis but functioning as government-funded narrative control.

Under the guise of “security policy” and “research,” the program:

  • portrays Ukraine as an unviable state destined to become a protectorate,
  • frames the European Union as economically collapsing and strategically incompetent,
  • normalizes Russian territorial conquest as irreversible,
  • and selectively weaponizes the concept of corruption to shift blame away from authoritarian actors.

This is not journalism, not debate, and not independent research.
It is a public institution using expert aesthetics to manufacture political truth, paid for by taxpayers.

This is what state propaganda looks like in 2025 — polished, institutional, and branded as “sovereignty.”
Never forget.

Never Forget: The “Financial Shield” That Never Existed

English subtitles are available via the CC button.

After returning from talks with Donald Trump, Viktor Orbán personally announced — on the plane home — that Hungary had secured an American financial “shield.”
He claimed a deal had been made, that the United States had given its word, and that Hungary would be protected against any external financial or political attack.

This was not media interpretation.
This was Orbán’s own statement, repeated and reinforced for weeks by government officials.

Later, Donald Trump publicly stated that no such agreement existed.
Only after this did the Hungarian government begin to backtrack — first calling it a “technical matter,” then admitting that no agreement had been signed at all, only that future talks might take place.

The facts are simple:

  • Orbán declared the deal as completed.
  • The government treated it as real.
  • The U.S. side denied it.
  • The “financial shield” never existed.

This video cannot be misinterpreted.
It is a clear example of how a political narrative collapsed when confronted with reality.

2023 was a “perfectly normal” year in Hungary.

A year when books were wrapped in foil to protect children from ideas, museums put up cordons inside exhibition halls, and container classrooms were described as better than real schools.

A year when government officials admitted—by accident—that telling the truth would be a problem. When inflation was celebrated for being pushed down to levels the EU had already reached months earlier.

A year of symbolic politics, public absurdities, moral panics, propaganda spectacles, and selective outrage—where nothing felt extraordinary anymore, precisely because everything was.

This was not chaos. This was normalization.
And that is exactly why 2023 should not be forgotten.

Summary – Never Forget 2024

English subtitles are available via the CC button.

This piece is a condensed record of Hungary in 2024.
It does not focus on a single scandal, but on how absurdity, cynicism, and the absence of consequences became normalized.

Trains that no longer function.
Institutions that visibly fail.
Pardons without accountability.
Propaganda, character assassination, and public humiliation in prime time.
Political aggression expressed through words, images, and gestures.

And throughout it all, the constant relativization of reality:
“it’s a misunderstanding,” “it’s just dust,” “it’s not what it looks like.”

This is not an opinion.
Not an analysis.
Not hindsight commentary.

It is a compressed record of events as they unfolded — as they were experienced.

This was 2024.
That is why it must not be forgotten.
