💥 “It’s not clear who attacked whom,” Hungarian PM Viktor Orbán said today at a presser on the Russia–Ukraine war, after an EU summit where he opposed any financial help for Ukraine. He’s escalating his rhetoric, for the first time openly questioning that Russia started the war.

Slovak-made Grand Power weapons are still sold in Russia because a licensed factory in Nizhny Novgorod produces them. The Investigative Center of Ján Kuciak & The Insider found the license was granted pre-2022, but some arms still reached Russia illegally.

🔎INVESTIGATION: Behind the "Make Europe Great Again" slogan, Romania’s far-right AUR party and its presidential candidate George Simion didn’t just endorse Poland’s Law and Justice — their social media operatives helped it win elections. @VSquare_Project

🔎🌊Crystal clear at its source in Ukraine, the Tisza river carries tons of plastic waste by the time it reaches Hungary. A new investigation shows how poor waste management in Transcarpathia, compounded by Russia’s war, has worsened the river’s pollution.

💥“Resign! Resign!” — crowds chant outside Viktor Orbán’s and president’s offices in Budapest at a weekend protest led by opposition leader Péter Magyar. He still leads the polls, but Orbán has vast resources — plus Trump and Putin's backing. Four months to go until the election.

💥Viktor Orbán is fuming after the EU agreed to indefinitely immobilise €210bn in Russian assets, sidelining his veto threat. He now calls it a “declaration of war” — again ignoring that it was the Kremlin’s war that triggered the move. Orbán's isolation within the EU continues.
