Trump’s message to Hungary: Conservatives are ‘in historic battle’ with everyone
Conservatives are “engaged in a historic battle with the Marxists, globalists and communists all over the world,” former US President Donald Trump said in a video message to the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Budapest on Friday.
“We are fighting against barbarians who want to demolish our liberty and our traditions and everything we hold dear,” Trump said.
He emphasised that Western civilisation was “in serious trouble”, adding that “all of us, both in Europe and in America, must stand together to defend our culture, our borders, our Judeo-Christian values, our identity and our way of life from those who want to destroy our beloved nations.”
Trump said that as president he had been “honoured to strengthen the special friendship between the United States and Hungary over four incredible years”.
DefMin: ‘We must protect homeland with weapons and right national policy’
“We must protect the homeland with weapons and the right national policy,” Defence Minister Kristóf Szalay-Bobrovniczky told the CPAC Hungary conference on Friday.
Szalay-Bobrovniczky said those who oppose the national policy have targeted the traditional concept of national defence, church and religion, school and family and tried to weaken the lines of defence of society. These are the institutions that protect people, and the duty of national policy is to protect these institutions, because without them, our citizens will remain unprotected, he said.
The minister emphasised that as long as he was at the head of the defence ministry, “here in Hungary there will be neither LMBTQXYZ, nor gender neutral, nor any other progressive ideology allowed in the armed forces”. The Hungarian Armed Forces will fulfil its task, guaranteeing the territory of Hungary and the security of the Hungarian people, he added.
Orbán holds talks with Portuguese right-wing politician
Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, the head of ruling Fidesz, held talks with Andre Ventura, president of Portugal’s CHEGA party, at his office in Budapest on Friday, the PM’s press chief said.
The talks focused on Hungarian-Portuguese relations, the increasingly important role of nation states in European politics and the results of the CPAC conference underway in Budapest, which both politicians had addressed earlier.
