Hungary’s Foreign Minister Szijjártó Slams EU Overreach and Predicts Orbán Victory
Opening Day 2 of CPAC Budapest, Hungarian Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó delivered a blunt rebuke of the European Union’s punitive policies, slamming the EU for fining Hungary €1 million a day over its border fence and transgender policies. Framing Hungary’s stance as a sovereign necessity, Szijjártó warned of Brussels’ attempt to “install a puppet government” willing to abandon the country’s independence.
He praised PM Viktor Orbán’s unwavering push for peace in Ukraine, emphasizing that those who once mocked Hungary’s calls for a cease-fire now echo the same demand. “When you come back here next year, we can celebrate another great victory for Hungary,” he said, forecasting Orbán’s win in the 2026 elections.
Alice Weidel: AfD Will Be Germany’s Next Ruling Party
AfD Chair Alice Weidel energized the international audience with a defiant address declaring her party “the second-strongest in Germany and next in line to rule.” She lambasted the “firewall” erected by German elites against populist movements, calling it a “panic room of a woke, anti-democratic establishment.”
Weidel accused the Verfassungsschutz (Germany’s domestic intelligence agency) of “spying on the AfD not to stop terrorism, but to dismantle political opposition.” She cited U.S. Senator J.D. Vance’s defense of popular sovereignty at the Munich Security Conference, arguing, “There is no room for firewalls when democracy rests on the voice of the people.”
Jack Posobiec Urges Governments to Shut Down NGO Networks
American journalist Jack Posobiec spoke forcefully against radical left-wing NGOs, declaring, “If you have a civil society organization in your country, you must shut it down.” Speaking with Orbán spokesman Zoltán Kovács, Posobiec warned that globalist-funded nonprofits are used as tools to destabilize sovereign nations and push radical agendas. He expressed hope that populist leaders like Nigel Farage and the AfD would continue the fight for national restoration.
Liz Truss: “The Globalist Network is Real and Ruthless”
Former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss revealed how her short time in power exposed the aggressive tactics of globalist institutions. “I wasn’t aware how powerful these people were until I became Prime Minister,” she said, referencing her battles with the World Economic Forum and WHO.
Truss warned that Europe now mirrors the repressive atmosphere once seen in the East, stating: “People are now fleeing to Hungary from the West to speak freely.” She praised Trump’s reforms and called for a European equivalent: “Defund the universities, defund the globalists, defund the NGOs.”
Eva Vlaardingerbroek Declares Democracy in Europe “Stone Cold Dead”
In one of the day’s most powerful moments, Dutch political commentator Eva Vlaardingerbroek declared that democracy in Europe is over. “There is a civil war going on in Europe. Only one side is fighting. And it’s not our side.”
Citing the failure of even right-wing governments like Geert Wilders’ to stem illegal immigration due to judicial sabotage, Vlaardingerbroek condemned the censorship of dissenters and likened the regime’s practices to apartheid. She referenced Germany’s detention of young right-wing travelers as further proof that “being a dissident now is just as dangerous as under Stalin or Mao.”
A Unified Call for Sovereignty and Survival
CPAC Budapest Day 2 was a clarion call from conservative leaders across the West warning of a collapsing democratic order, weaponized institutions, and the silent tyranny of globalist rule. From Hungary to Germany, the UK to the Netherlands, the message was clear: the hour is late, but the fight for sovereignty and truth has only just begun.
