    It’s not Orban’s party but that doesn’t excuse him. He’s been in office for the last 14 years and deliberately cultivated a political climate of aggressive nationalist conservatism fuelled by propaganda about historical greatness and foreign betrayal. He’s the one who has moved Hungary’s Overton window so far to the far right that politicians such as these can get elected.

      He’s also made overt references and remarks to “historically Hungarian” parts of Ukraine. It’s very clear he has designs on neighboring Ukranian regions.
