Russia is turning Crimea’s coastline into a minefield.

Not symbolic. Systematic.

Hungary has chosen Europe.

Europe has always chosen Hungary.

A country reclaims its European path.

The Union grows stronger.

More than 81% of all ballots counted and opposition party Tisza is still holding a supermajority position of 137 seats (133 seats needed) in the Hungarian parliament.

’Viktor Orbán is now speaking at Fidesz’s election night and he says the election result is “clear” as he concedes defeat.

He says he congratulated the winning party and admits the result is painful for Fidesz.’

BREAKING: Hungarian PM Viktor Orbán has called Péter Magyar to concede defeat in today's election.

With 53.45% of votes counted, Magyar's TISZA looks set to secure a super majority.

A defeat for Putin, a defeat for Trump, a victory for Europe, and above all, a victory for the Hungarian people.

Magyar posted on FB saying that Orban called and congratulated. This is it. It's over.🇭🇺

Tisza won and will likely get a supermajority. And with large legitimacy comes large responsibility.

magyar seems confident ("thank you, hungary!")

With 30% of the votes processed, Tisza is indeed right on the cusp of a supermajority (133 seats needed). And the results from Budapest and larger cities are usually underrepresented at this point.

Hungary now officially the poorest country in the EU Hungary has officially become the European Union’s poorest member state based on actual individual consumption, with economic hardship triggering a potential political shake-up.

Long distance runners. Because we need to clear our minds whilst being in pain at the same time.

Kinetic sanctions work.
Please continue.

Murderous bastards. When peace arrives, never forget what Russia has done in Ukraine.

And we crossed the 1.3 MILLION mark.
