Putin’s blacklist snubs Hungary, includes Poland among nations of ‘destructive ideology’
Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a decree labelling Poland as a state driven by a “destructive neoliberal ideology.” Citizens from such nations are deemed eligible for “humanitarian assistance.” Interestingly, Hungary and Slovakia, both EU members, have been left off this list.
According to Mediazona, an independent Russian news site, Russia has compiled a list of 47 countries whose ideologies supposedly clash with “traditional Russian spiritual and moral values,” Paraméter reports. This list includes EU nations like Poland, as well as Ukraine, the U.S., Canada, the UK, Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, and New Zealand.
Notably, Slovakia and Hungary are the only EU countries absent from the blacklist. Among NATO members, Turkey was also excluded.
Sources familiar with the decree, signed by Putin on Thursday, reveal that it was drafted by the Russian Foreign Ministry and officially approved under presidential orders.
The decree outlines that citizens from these blacklisted countries who wish to relocate to Russia and embrace its traditional values will receive “humanitarian support.” This includes granting temporary residency even without the usual requirements, such as Russian language proficiency or knowledge of the country’s history and legal system.

As a Canadian I am absolutely proud to be on Putin’s ‘blacklist” but I am not at all impressed with Hungary not being on it. You have to have absolute respect for the Poles who know 100% the Russian threat and it doesn’t matter which of their parties is in power right or left. They all know it.

Probably Putin is still thinking that 1956 hungarians were destructive liberals as well. Hungarians today have such a short memory. Selling your soul to devil for cheap (not in the long term) energy.

According to the Collins Dictionary, “snub” mean to treat with disdain or contempt. Russia did not “snub” Hungary, its closest ally in Europe. It snubbed the blacklisted countries.
Ooohhh – we are deemed to support (or rather: our Politicians advocate) “traditional Russian spiritual and moral values”, and hence we are eligible for Russian humanitarian assistance!
Dear Bob, we used the expression “snub” as in “the act of ignoring someone or something”. Thank you for your remark.
As a UK citizen I’ll gladly accept Russia’s humanitarian assistance. My bank account number is ……
Are there still simpletons with weak minds who believe the KGB killer Putler who kills his political rivals? Let these simpletons look at the result – Azerbaijan won the war against Armenia because it relied on NATO member Turkey. Armenia lost because it relied on the lying, corrupt, aggressive regime of Putler and now Armenia is friends with the USA.
