    When I read the headline, it immediately made me wonder where ‘abroad’ Orban is admired. It certainly isn’t in my neck of the woods.

    Meanwhile he has drawn admirers around the world, including US Vice President JD Vance and Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze. US President Donald Trump has called Orban “smart” and “a tough person”.

    Ah. Yes.

      Also Kickl in Austria, Wilders in the NL, and the assorted Russian-supported far-right.

      A journalist in Hungary just said “we would put our hands together (meaning it would be a huge improvement) to have a far right like the one Poland just got rid of”. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not a fan of Meloni’s group either, but at least they are not straight up traitors to Europe and their respective countries.
