Share this so that Tisza supporters also face the truth! The Tisza agent scandal has escalated into a Ukrainian espionage scandal.

The report of the National Security Committee clearly states: the IT specialists of the Tisza Party did not work only for them – but for the Ukrainians as well.

• Regular contact with the Ukrainian Embassy in Budapest
• Foreign intelligence connections
• Cooperation with hacker groups
• Attempts to procure spyware and military technology

This goes far beyond a political debate — it is a serious national security issue.

One of those involved had previously been under investigation for blackmail and cybercrime.
Another was directed by a foreign intelligence operative and built connections in Ukraine.

They visited the Ukrainian Embassy in Budapest multiple times.
They communicated through encrypted channels.
Foreign actors were interested in Hungarian domestic political information.

This is unacceptable.

Hungary’s future cannot be a plaything of foreign interests.
Decisions about us cannot be made in Ukraine, in Brussels, or through intelligence backroom deals.

🇭🇺 Hungarians have the right to security.
🇭🇺 Hungarians have the right to sovereignty.

Anyone who builds on people with such connections is putting the country at risk.

The stakes of the election are clear: order, security, and national sovereignty — or chaos and foreign influence.

👉 That is why Fidesz and Viktor Orbán are the safe choice!

🔍 Main narrative

👉 “Tisza = Ukrainian spy network”
👉 “Foreign actors (Ukraine + intelligence services) are interfering”
👉 “Hungary is in danger”
👉 “Fidesz = the only protection”

🧩 Hidden formula (very clear)

“national security report”
→ claims without concrete evidence
→ “spy” labeling
→ exaggeration of foreign connections
→ intelligence-thriller elements (hackers, encrypted channels)
→ existential threat (the fate of the country)
→ moral panic (“this is unacceptable”)
→ single solution (“only Fidesz”)

👉 Classic: fear + betrayal + savior

🧠 Influence techniques

1️⃣ Enemy construction (external + internal)

👉 “Ukrainians”, “intelligence services”, “hacker groups”

Technique: enemy construction
Goal: fear + distrust
Effect: every opponent = potential “foreign interest”

2️⃣ Guilt by association

👉 “Ukrainian embassy” → “espionage”

Technique: associative labeling
Goal: normal contact = suspicious activity
Effect: even diplomatic contact appears as “evidence”

3️⃣ Secrecy + unfalsifiability

👉 “encrypted channels”, “connections”, “they were interested”

Technique: unfalsifiable claims
Goal: prevent verification
Effect: cannot be disproven → feels more believable

4️⃣ Thriller elements (dramaturgy)

👉 hackers, spyware, intelligence services

Technique: dramatization framing
Goal: emotional engagement
Effect: the story feels stronger than reality

5️⃣ Moral panic

👉 “this is unacceptable”, “the country’s fate”

Technique: fear / moral panic framing
Goal: urgency, bypass rational thinking
Effect: you react instead of analyze

6️⃣ False causality chain

👉 “connection → espionage → country in danger”

Technique: false causality
Goal: simple, easy-to-follow narrative
Effect: complex reality reduced → more believable

7️⃣ Sovereignty trigger

👉 “they cannot decide about us”

Technique: patriotic framing
Goal: activate identity
Effect: emotional identification over rational debate

8️⃣ False dilemma (most important)

👉 “order vs chaos”
👉 “sovereignty vs foreign influence”

Technique: false dilemma
Goal: reduce choice to two options
Effect: no middle ground → forced decision

9️⃣ Savior narrative

👉 “only Orbán / Fidesz”

Technique: savior framing
Goal: political monopoly
Effect: delegitimizing all alternatives

⚠️ Why it feels “nauseating”

Because multiple layers are working at once:

🧠 rational layer: no concrete evidence
😨 emotional layer: fear + betrayal
🧩 narrative: conspiracy-like structure
🎯 outcome: political control

👉 Your brain detects manipulation → triggers a physical rejection

🧠 In short (very clear)

This text is not trying to inform, but to:

👉 create an enemy
👉 generate fear
👉 provide a simple story
👉 and offer a single “solution”

Viktor Orbán announced:
As long as Ukraine does not provide oil, it will not receive gas from Hungary.
No one can blackmail Hungarians!

Author – Alexandra Szentkirályi
The security of Hungarian families cannot be a bargaining chip! That is why, no matter how Zelensky and the Tisza Party coordinate, we will not allow ourselves to be blackmailed! As long as Ukraine does not provide oil, they will not receive gas from Hungary! Only the national government stands up for Hungarian interests, which is why Viktor Orbán and Fidesz are the only safe choice on April 12! 🇭🇺

🔍 Baseline (what they are saying)

👉 “Ukraine does not supply oil → Hungary will not supply gas”
👉 “This is not blackmail → it is self-defense”
👉 “We are protecting Hungarians”

🧩 Actual communication logic (deeper layer)

1️⃣ Mutual punishment framing

👉 “if they do it → we do it too”

Technique: false equivalence / retaliatory framing
Reality:

• Ukraine is at war (existential situation)
• Hungary’s move is a political–energy tool

➡️ Effect: it creates the impression of two equal actors “playing a game,” even though the situation is not symmetrical

2️⃣ Reframing blackmail

👉 “no one can blackmail Hungarians”

Technique: accusation inversion

• what is actually pressure → is labeled as “self-defense”

➡️ Effect:
an offensive move appears defensive

3️⃣ Linking external enemy with internal traitor

👉 “Zelensky and Tisza are working together”

Technique: guilt by association

• external actor (Ukraine)
• internal opponent (Tisza)

➡️ Effect:
the opposition = anti-national actor

4️⃣ Raising the stakes to existential level

👉 “security of families”, “not up for negotiation”

Technique: fear framing + over-escalation

➡️ Effect:

• an energy policy issue → becomes a survival issue
• rational debate is pushed aside

5️⃣ Single-solution narrative

👉 “only Orbán Viktor and Fidesz”

Technique: false dilemma

➡️ Effect:

• no alternatives
• the election becomes a loyalty test

⚖️ Core of your question (very important)

👉 “cutting off gas from a country that is under military attack”

This is a critical moral and geopolitical point:

🔹 Without context:

👉 “we are just defending ourselves”

🔹 With context:

👉 restricting the energy supply of a country at war

➡️ This fundamentally changes how the action is perceived

🧠 What is happening on the communication level?

👉 Reality:

• energy dependency
• geopolitics
• war

👉 In the messaging:

• “they are blackmailing us”
• “we are defending ourselves”
• “the opposition is on their side”

➡️ Complex situation → simplified moral story

🎯 Summary

👉 The narrative is built like this:

external conflict (Ukraine)
→ claim of blackmail
→ legitimizing retaliation
→ linking in internal opposition
→ fear (families, energy)
→ single political solution

👉 Classic pattern:
conflict → fear → enemy → protection → vote

Roland Tseber, Zelensky’s Ukrainian spy and a good “friend” of Péter Magyar, is asking Ukrainian politicians not to reveal before the elections how much they are counting on a Tisza victory and how beneficial that would be for their war efforts and EU accession.

For them, Ukraine — for us, Hungary.
Whoever votes for Tisza is voting against their own wallet and their own future.

Viktor Orbán can say no to blackmail; he says no to both Brussels and Kyiv, because that is in the interest of Hungarians.
Péter Magyar cannot.

On April 12, Fidesz is the only safe choice!

By the way, did you hear what Roland Tseber, the Ukrainian spy, asked from Ukrainian experts and politicians? He asked them to hold back a bit — but only for the sake of the elections. I ask all Ukrainians, experts, academics, politicians — I don’t know, I can’t comment on everything — but if they do comment, then let’s take a look.

Because there are various discussions involving Hungary, and they have been quite revealing — and it only reinforces that they are essentially Orbán-focused “experts.” In fact, Tseber and his circle can also see, even from Ukraine, that Ukraine openly backing the Tisza Party, and the Tisza Party openly working toward Ukraine joining the European Union by 2027 and sending money to Ukraine to finance the war, actually reduces their electoral chances.

And they are right about that — because Hungarian people would not really welcome a government that is pro-Ukraine instead of pro-Hungary. But I think that by now both Ukrainian voices and pro-Tisza experts have already said enough for us to clearly see what we are up against.

🔍 Main Narrative

👉 “Tisza = a network serving Ukrainian interests”
👉 “Péter Magyar = controlled by foreign actors / weak”
👉 “Ukraine + EU = interfering in Hungarian elections”
👉 “The election = Hungary vs. foreign powers”
👉 “Fidesz = the only protection”

🧩 Hidden Formula (very clear)

“Ukrainian actor” (Tseber)
→ labeled as a spy
→ linked to Péter Magyar
→ suggestion of a secret backroom deal
→ election manipulation narrative
→ tying in war + money + EU expansion
→ existential threat framing
→ single solution (“only Fidesz”)

👉 Classic: external enemy → betrayal → fear → savior

🧠 Influence Techniques

1️⃣ Enemy Construction (external + internal merged)

👉 “Zelensky’s Ukrainian spy”
👉 “a good friend of Péter Magyar”

Create the impression of a hidden deal.

Effect:
A sense of “exposure” without evidence.

3️⃣ Guilt by Association

Turn the election into a matter of survival.

Effect:
Rational thinking → emotional reaction (fear).

5️⃣ False Dilemma (binary framing)

👉 “For them Ukraine, for us Hungary”
👉 “only Fidesz is the safe choice”

Goal:
Eliminate all middle options.

Effect:
The choice becomes:

• “betrayal”
• or “defense of the nation”

6️⃣ Leader = Nation (leader–nation fusion)

Goal:
Orbán = Hungary

Effect:
Criticism of him = attack on the nation.

7️⃣ Framing the Opponent as Incompetent

👉 “Péter Magyar cannot”

Goal:
Simple character attack.

Effect:
No need to prove → just assert.

8️⃣ Repetition and Noise (second part of the text)

👉 confusing, repetitive, hard-to-follow section

Goal:

• information overload
• create a sense that “a lot is happening”

Effect:
The audience doesn’t verify—only absorbs impressions.

9️⃣ “Everyone Already Knows” Narrative

👉 “it’s visible even from Ukraine”
👉 “they’ve already said enough”

Goal:
Create an illusion of consensus.

Effect:
Anyone who doubts feels “out of the loop.”

⚙️ Summary (core)

This text is a classic campaign weapon that:

👉 constructs an external enemy (Ukraine)
👉 assigns a domestic traitor (Tisza)
👉 suggests a hidden conspiracy
👉 creates financial + war-related fear
👉 then offers a single solution

🧠 In short

👉 It does not provide information
👉 it triggers an emotional reaction

Core mechanism:
“fear → identify an enemy → choose the protector”

👉 We ended the day with a street forum in Kőbánya. A large crowd gathered, and based on many meaningful conversations, it is clear that people in Kőbánya—and in Budapest more broadly—fully understand what is at stake in the election.

It really matters who leads the country in the coming years. If the Tisza party were to come to power, Budapest residents would feel the consequences the most. Moving away from cheap Russian gas, a drastic rise in utility costs, and Tisza-imposed taxes would leave families in Kőbánya with hundreds of thousands of forints less in their pockets each year. No one wants that.

🟠 People in Kőbánya also know that on April 12, the only safe choice is Fidesz and Kristóf Szatmáry!
Go Kőbánya! Go Budapest!

What were you doing here in Kőbánya? Well, we were campaigning—19 days to go—so we were here with Kristóf Szatmáry. Originally, we were supposed to visit him at home, but in the end, we also came to see Mayor Róbert D. Kovács, so it turned into an interesting situation.

I had many very positive and engaging conversations. From what I see, people absolutely understand what this election is about. They know very well that it directly affects their wallets. It depends on the election whether we can keep utility costs low or end up paying three times as much—meaning an extra 500,000 to 700,000 forints a year thrown out the window. It also affects whether current fuel prices can be maintained—or even lowered—or whether we will have to pay 1,000 forints per liter, driving prices up across the board.

And of course, the most important question is whether we can stay out of the war in such a dangerous world and avoid its consequences. So I think more and more people understand what the right choice is—and that choice is Fidesz. Let it be so on April 12 as well.

🔍 Main Narrative

👉 “The election = a question of financial survival”
👉 “Tisza = rising costs, higher utility bills, chaos”
👉 “Fidesz = security, cheap energy, peace”
👉 “Budapest residents would suffer the most”
👉 “The decision is clear → there is only one right choice”

🧩 Hidden Formula (very clear)

local event (“street forum, many people”)
→ sense of majority (“everyone knows”)
→ stakes amplified (“it matters who leads the country”)
→ concrete fears (utilities, fuel, taxes)
→ numbers introduced (500,000; 700,000; 1000 HUF/l)
→ existential threat (war)
→ single solution (“only Fidesz”)

👉 Classic: majority → fear → money → security → voting

🧠 Influence Techniques

1️⃣ Bandwagon (illusion of majority)

👉 “many people gathered”, “everyone knows”

Goal:
create the impression this is the dominant opinion

Effect:
👉 people are more likely to align with the “majority”

2️⃣ Fear appeal (economic panic)

👉 “hundreds of thousands less money left”
👉 “500,000–700,000 HUF extra expenses”

Goal:
trigger existential anxiety

Effect:
👉 emotional decision-making instead of rational evaluation

3️⃣ False causality

👉 “Tisza → higher utility bills → inflation → financial loss”

Problem:
not proven, only asserted

Goal:
create a simple, easy-to-understand cause-effect chain

4️⃣ Manipulation with concrete numbers

👉 “700,000”, “1000 HUF/l fuel”

Goal:
create the appearance of credibility

Effect:
👉 “this must be calculated, therefore it’s true”

5️⃣ Existential threat framing (war)

👉 “whether we can stay out of the war”

Goal:
elevate the election into a survival issue

Effect:
👉 voting becomes a security reflex

6️⃣ False dilemma (no alternative)

👉 “only Fidesz is the safe choice”

Goal:
exclude all alternatives

Reality:
👉 multiple political options exist

7️⃣ Localized fear (Budapest focus)

👉 “Budapest residents would feel it the most”

Goal:
create direct personal relevance

Effect:
👉 “this affects me personally”

8️⃣ Emotional exaggeration + dramatization

👉 “throwing money out the window”
👉 “drastic increase”

Goal:
intensify negative emotional response

9️⃣ Repetition (message reinforcement)

👉 utilities, fuel, money, war repeated multiple times

Goal:
👉 anchor the message (heuristic effect)

🔟 “We talked to people” credibility framing

👉 “based on conversations, it’s clear”

Goal:
present political claims as personal experience

Effect:
👉 “this is not propaganda, this is reality”

⚠️ Overall Picture (short)

This is a textbook campaign message, combining:

• financial fear (utilities, fuel)
• security fear (war)
• majority pressure
• and a single solution

into one unified narrative.

👉 Key sentence:
“If you don’t vote for us → you will lose money and face danger.”

The collusion between Tisza and the Ukrainians could not be more obvious anymore.

A Ukrainian analyst said that Péter Magyar has to “stroke” his voters, telling them what they want to hear if he wants to win — namely, that “they do not want to send weapons and soldiers to Ukraine.” But this is just an appearance — we know exactly what’s behind it.

All of this is in line with what Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has also stated: that the Ukrainians are developing Tisza’s online mobilization network, while at the same time wiretapping Péter Szijjártó.

Hungarians do not want a puppet government that serves Ukrainian interests! As long as there is a national government, Hungary will remain a sovereign and free state, and we will protect the interests of Hungarians. That is why the only safe choice is Fidesz!

Péter Magyar has to “pamper” Hungarians before the election, because until then he must not reveal that he would send weapons to Ukraine and support them, said a Ukrainian analyst. They are asking for support, claiming that Hungarians should help with weapons — but people are saying no, no, no.

This is not the first time I’ve heard something like this, because Roland Ceber also said that now everyone on the Ukrainian side should keep quiet a bit, otherwise the truth might come out — namely that the Tisza party and the Ukrainians are closely intertwined, and both sides are interested in having a government in Hungary that does not represent Hungarian interests, but instead would, for example, admit Ukraine to the European Union in 2027, and send Hungarian money and our soldiers’ weapons to Ukraine.

Well, this is exactly what we do not want. That is why analysts are now outraged and trying to put a lock on their mouths for the next few days.

🔍 Main Narrative

👉 “Tisza = a network serving Ukrainian interests”
👉 “Péter Magyar = deceives voters”
👉 “Opposition victory = weapons, money, soldiers sent to Ukraine”
👉 “Government = sovereignty and protection”
👉 “Election = national defense vs betrayal”

🧩 Hidden Formula (very clear)

a vague source (“a Ukrainian analyst said”)
→ assumption presented as fact
→ reinforced by another claim (“Orbán also said it”)
→ building a conspiracy (Ukraine + Tisza + wiretapping)
→ existential threat (soldiers, money, war)
→ betrayal narrative (“puppet government”)
→ single solution (“only Fidesz”)

👉 Classic: insinuation → linking → fear → forced choice

🧠 Influence Techniques

1️⃣ Conspiracy framing

👉 “Ukrainians are developing… wiretapping… collaborating”

• No evidence → but presented as a complete story
• Multiple unrelated elements tied into one chain

Goal: create an image of a large, invisible enemy
Effect: distrust, paranoia

2️⃣ False source credibility

👉 “a Ukrainian analyst said”

• No name, no context
• Still used as “evidence”

Goal: imitate legitimacy
Effect: “an insider said it → must be true”

3️⃣ Mind reading / intent attribution

👉 “they are just soothing voters”
👉 “in reality they would send weapons”

• Claims intentions that were never stated

Goal: destroy trust
Effect: “what they say is a lie”

4️⃣ Fear appeal (war + money + soldiers)

👉 “they will send our soldiers”
👉 “they will give away Hungarians’ money”

• Existential triggers: life + finances

Goal: emotional shock
Effect: panic, defensive reflex

5️⃣ Enemy coalition building

👉 Blending Ukraine + EU + opposition

• Separate actors → one unified “camp”

Goal: simplify a complex world
Effect: “everyone is against us”

6️⃣ Betrayal narrative

👉 “puppet government”
👉 “not serving Hungarian interests”

• Elevates it to a moral issue

Goal: delegitimize
Effect: “not just wrong, but traitors”

7️⃣ False dilemma

👉 “either Fidesz, or a Ukrainian puppet government”

• No middle ground

Goal: narrow the choice space
Effect: forced decision

8️⃣ Repetition hypnosis (very strong here)

👉 “we don’t want it, we don’t want it…” (repeated)

• Deliberate emotional overload

Goal: shut down rational thinking
Effect: visceral rejection

9️⃣ Collapse into chaotic speech (intentional)

The text breaks down toward the end (“we don’t want it…”)

• Not accidental: emotional overload → logic fades

Goal: emotion over logic
Effect: “it feels true” reaction

⚠️ What’s especially important

This text does NOT aim to inform, but to:

👉 trigger emotions (fear + anger)
👉 provide an enemy
👉 push toward a single decision

🧠 In short: why it feels disgusting

Because it:

• manipulates → instead of arguing
• uses fear → instead of facts
• oversimplifies → instead of explaining
• tries to affect you → instead of informing

👉 Your brain detects that something is “off” → that’s why the nausea kicks in

🇺🇸 Trump once again stood up for Hungary and is encouraging Hungarians to vote for Viktor Orbán! 🇭🇺

Full message from Donald Trump:
“The highly respected Prime Minister of Hungary, Viktor Orbán, is truly a strong and determined leader who has proven to deliver outstanding results. He works tirelessly and loves his country and his people, just as I love the United States of America.

Viktor works hard to protect Hungary, grow the economy, create jobs, promote trade, stop illegal immigration, and maintain law and order.

Relations between Hungary and the United States reached a new level of cooperation and achievement under my administration, largely thanks to Prime Minister Viktor Orbán. I look forward to continuing to work closely together so that both of our countries can move forward on this path of success and cooperation.

I was proud to support Viktor in his re-election in 2022, and it is an honor for me to do so again. Election Day is April 12, 2026. Hungary, go out and vote for Viktor Orbán.

He is a true friend, a fighter, and a winner, and he has my full support for re-election as Prime Minister. Viktor Orbán will not let the people of Hungary down. I fully stand with him. — Donald J. Trump”

Despite all kinds of intelligence interference, attempts at disruption, and provocations, Hungary is following its own path, and we will not tolerate having a puppet government imposed on us. It’s hard to stand alone, but if we have friends like this, we have nothing to fear!

Yes, this is exactly how it looks from a communication perspective: placing Trump’s endorsement message next to the Washington Post–reported Szijjártó case shows that, for Trump, Orbán is not a moral ally but a political-ideological one. Meanwhile, following the Washington Post report, AP, Reuters, and other outlets also wrote that Péter Szijjártó may have shared confidential EU discussions with Moscow; because of this, the European Commission requested explanations, while Orbán did not emphasize investigating the substance of the allegations but instead focused on the alleged wiretapping.

The key point is not that Trump “doesn’t know about it,” but that it apparently isn’t important enough for him to withdraw his support. In recent days, Trump has once again openly stood behind Orbán, while his broader circle has also visibly signaled support: according to Reuters, JD Vance’s visit to Hungary was interpreted as backing Orbán, and Marco Rubio had previously taken a supportive public tone. This reinforces that the current Trump-aligned circle in Washington still sees Orbán as a useful partner, despite the scandal.

Communication / Influence Analysis:

1️⃣ Moral whitewashing
Trump’s message does not simply support Orbán—it frames him as a moral hero: “strong,” “patriotic,” a “fighter,” a “winner.” This is classic character polishing. Its function is to shift attention away from issues and toward persona. If someone is a “fighter and winner,” scandals appear secondary. In light of the Szijjártó case, this is especially striking, as the endorsement completely detaches Orbán from the serious allegations surrounding him.

2️⃣ Selective blindness / selective morality
This is the strongest point: Trump-aligned communication frequently speaks about “sovereignty” and “national self-determination,” yet now a scandal has emerged where the allegation is precisely that Hungary’s foreign ministry may have leaked sensitive EU information toward Russia. If someone gives “full and total support” while ignoring this, it signals that loyalty matters more than principle.

3️⃣ Political utility overrides principles
The most accurate reading is not that Trump “supports Hungary,” but that he sees Orbán as a symbol within an international right-wing network. In the Trumpist worldview, Orbán represents anti-immigration policy, anti-liberal culture war, and “sovereigntist” rhetoric. Because of this, Orbán is more valuable as a symbolic ally than the Russian-related scandal is damaging. The Guardian and Reuters have also described Orbán as a central figure in European far-right / sovereigntist gatherings, strengthened from Washington ahead of the election.

4️⃣ Neutralizing the scandal through communication
Orbán’s reaction was also telling: the focus shifted not to whether the leak allegations are true, but to who allegedly wiretapped Szijjártó. This is classic reframing. The question becomes not “was there a leak?” but “who is attacking the Hungarian government?” Trump’s message perfectly fits this frame, as it does not address the allegations but instead reaffirms the leader.

5️⃣ Importing external legitimacy
For Fidesz, Trump’s support is not just support—it is imported authority. The internal message becomes: “if the U.S. president / Trumpist leadership stands behind us, then we are strong internationally.” This is especially important when the Washington Post story suggests that Orbán’s government may be closer to Moscow than to the Western alliance system. The Trump endorsement acts as a counter-image: “we are not isolated—we have strong American backing.”

6️⃣ Exposure of double standards
This is the strongest political vulnerability: if Fidesz frames all external criticism as “foreign interference,” then what do we call it when Trump openly tells Hungarians to vote for Orbán? This is, in factual terms, also a form of external political intervention. At the same time, the government labels other international criticism as attacks. Together, this creates a clear communication contradiction.

Summary (refined political formulation):

What we are seeing is not that Trump “supports Hungary,” but that he supports Orbán even when Orbán’s system is under serious allegations of Russian ties. This is not support for a country, but the protection of an ideological ally. In light of the Washington Post case, this reads less as friendship and more as cynical, power-based loyalty.

The underlying formula:

a scandal involving Russian connections
→ Trump still gives full support
→ therefore the support is not moral but power/ideology-based
→ Orbán’s value to Trump lies not in integrity but in usefulness
→ the “friendship” narrative is actually a geopolitical transaction

One strong closing sentence:

Trump’s message is not an exoneration of Orbán, but an implicit admission that for the Trumpist camp, even a system shadowed by Russian ties remains acceptable—as long as it is politically useful.
