Orbán’s closest political advisor will help Trump win the presidency?

Árpád Habony and Csaba Faragó, the foreign affairs director of Századvég have been operating Századvég in several countries, such as Serbia, Slovakia, Poland, and the United States. Political powers sympathetic to Viktor Orbán have increasingly relied on advice from Habony and his team in recent European elections. Where could you have heard of these advisors being involved before and what country seems to be the next on their list?

Slovakia and Fico

The organisation appeared in the Slovakian elections too. Habony first appeared last year around Peter Pellegrini’s party, Hlas. Hlas is the social democratic party and Peter Pellegrini is the speaker of the house. The intermediary was Matús Sutaj Estok, who has since become the Minister of Interior in Slovakia. However, with the growth of Fico’s party, Smer, the number of Fidesz associates also increased. Allegedly Századvég helped with the popularity ratig of Smer, writes Telex. This was done by conducting public surveys on which political messages work best.
According to sources “Hungarian collaboration with Smer remained strong even after Fico’s election victory.” You can read more about Slovak and Hungarian ties HERE.

Serbia

There are also mentions by 444, that Századvég actively participated in the Serbian elections. Mostly by Faragó helping the Vojvodina Hungarians’ Alliance, which is affiliated with Vučić’s party, in achieving good results.
