Interestingly, support for the Euro in #Hungary is around 70%, one of the highest in the region.
With such a massive public mandate, the new government is likely to present a clear roadmap for Eurozone integration.

Orbán era swept away by Péter Magyar's Hungary election landslide Viktor Orbán's 16-year rule is over, defeated by a 45-year-old ex-party insider who convinced a majority of Hungarians to oust him.

So happy for all Hungarians! We felt that same spark in Poland back in October 2023. The new government will have a huge mandate for change. I hope they move fast and avoid the same mistakes Tusk made in Poland.

Modern diesel engines depend on it, it’s made from natural gas, and there are virtually no strategic reserves.

Trump’s mental state is clearly deteriorating. The consequences of his continued presidency could be disastrous on a global scale. We are in dangerous territory.

Traders placed $580mn in oil bets ahead of Donald Trump’s social media post on Iran talks Thousands of Brent and WTI contracts changed hands 15 minutes before president’s message on Truth Social

Someone close to the US administration could be profiting from insider trading, which is illegal in the United States, but in practice extremely difficult to prove.

I completely agree; deterrence is far cheaper than repelling armed aggression, but the question is: what about hybrid warfare, which the Kremlin thugs have mastered to perfection?

It is a bitter reminder that dictators—or would-be dictators—do not operate according to our rationality, but their own. What is rational for them is not necessarily rational from our point of view.

Berlin admits intelligence failure on Ukraine conflict The German Foreign Intelligence Service (BND) has repeatedly seriously misjudged the developments in Russia’s conflict with Ukraine,

Feb 24, 2022 – beyond the tragedy for Ukraine, analytically it also marked an intellectual failure of entire intelligence agencies (France, Germany) and many security experts who until the end dismissed the troop buildup as mere “negotiation pressure".

ZDF: Report with fake AI video in "heute journal" On Sunday, "heute journal" illustrated a report on ICE operations with a video generated by Sora. The broadcaster initially explains it as intentional.

The German ZDF blunder proves that even the professional media are being fooled by AI fake videos.
Just thinking: A dictator dies in a bunker, but via deepfakes, he "lives" forever. A digital puppet maintained by a shadow regime to keep a grip on power.

I do not see any possibility of the president blocking SAFE in Poland. If the bill is vetoed, there are other options. Tusk treats this issue as a political trap for Nawrocki and PiS.

This is the US influence what is pushing Nawrocki and PiS to attack SAFE, highlighting US's concern over losing a lucrative market. If Poland boosts domestic defense production and buys European, the US loses a top, "low-demand" client.
