In 2015, #Viktor_Otserklevych fought in #Pisky and on the #Svitlodar_Arc. During the full-scale invasion, he served as deputy commander of the mechanized

MAGA conservatives love Viktor Orbán. But he’s left his country corrupt, stagnant, and impoverished.

America’s Future Is Hungary

--By Anne Applebaum

Flashy hotels and upmarket restaurants now dominate the center of Budapest,
a city once better known for its shabby facades.

New monuments have sprung up in the center of town too.

One of them, a pastiche of the Vietnam War memorial in Washington, D.C., mourns Hungary’s lost 19th-century empire.

Instead of war dead, the names of formerly “Hungarian” places
—cities and villages that are now in Romania, Slovakia, Ukraine, Poland
—are engraved in long granite walls, solemnly memorialized with an eternal flame.

But the nationalist kitsch and tourist traps hide a different reality.

Once widely perceived to be the wealthiest country in Central Europe
(“the happiest barrack in the socialist camp,” as it was known during the Cold War),
and later the Central European country that foreign investors liked most,
-- Hungary is now one of the poorest countries,
and possibly the poorest, in the European Union.

Industrial production is falling year-over-year.

Productivity is close to the lowest in the region.

Unemployment is creeping upward.

Despite the ruling party’s loud talk about traditional values,
the population is shrinking.

Perhaps that’s because young people don’t want to have children in a place where two-thirds of the citizens describe the national education system as “bad,”
and where hospital departments are closing because so many doctors have moved abroad.

Maybe talented people don’t want to stay in a country perceived as the most corrupt in the EU for three years in a row.

Even the Index of Economic Freedom
—which is published by the Heritage Foundation, the MAGA-affiliated think tank that produced Project 2025
—puts Hungary at the bottom of the EU in its rankings of government integrity.

Tourists in central Budapest don’t see this decline.
But neither, apparently, does the American right.

For although he has no critical mineral wealth to give away
and not much of an army,
Hungary’s prime minister, #Viktor #Orbán, plays an outsize role in the American political debate.

During the 2024 presidential campaign, Orbán held multiple meetings with Donald Trump.

In May 2022, a pro-Orbán think tank hosted CPAC,
the right-wing conference,
in Budapest,
and three months later, Orbán went to Texas to speak at the CPAC Dallas conference.

Last year, at the third edition of CPAC Hungary, a Republican congressman described the country as
“one of the most successful models as a leader for conservative principles and governance.”

In a video message, Steve Bannon called Hungary
“an inspiration to the world.”

Notwithstanding his own institution’s analysis of Hungarian governance,
Kevin Roberts of the Heritage Foundation has also described modern Hungary
“not just as a model for modern statecraft, but the model.”
