Recent discussions highlight growing concerns over U.S. right-wing Republicans' support for Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, despite his controversial alliances and policies. Critics argue that Orban's close ties with China and Russia, exemplified by his support for the One Belt One Road Initiative, allowing CCP police in Hungary, and non-critical stance towards Putin's actions in Ukraine, pose a threat to Western interests. This alignment with Orban, described as a brutal Communist dictator, is seen as contradictory to U.S. values, especially given his alleged involvement in corruption, downplaying child abuse, and promoting racial purity ideologies. Prominent conservative organizations like the Heritage Foundation and CPAC are criticized for endorsing Orban, thereby potentially facilitating the spread of Chinese influence in the West and compromising U.S. national security.
“What do the nationalist right and the Chinese Communist Party have in common? They both love Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban.” ~@marcthiessen https://t.co/uFnb44931k
"By embracing Orban, the Heritage Foundation and CPAC are supporting the spread of Communist China’s malevolent influence in the West and undermining the national security interests of the United States." The latest from @marcthiessen: https://t.co/qUdu115LNV
Orban’s type of political opportunism may be tailor-made for profiting from the global rivalry that has Russia and China on one side, and the West on the other https://t.co/RXDhGbdkpU
Right-wing Republicans are embracing Hungary's Viktor Orban even though he has become an outpost for China, supports Putin's colonial invasion of Ukraine, trumpets white racial purity, downplays child abuse, and is a corrupt self-serving autocrat. https://t.co/tlPb3nwxYm
If Viktor Orban wants to embrace a brutal Communist dictator, that is his choice, @marcthiessen writes. "But why would U.S. conservatives then embrace him?" https://t.co/RxydKfQO8i
Haywood, Putin, Owens, Pilego, Wilson, Dugin...and now Orban. Tucker is now shilling for a nation that is the puppet of the Chinese Communist Party. No hard questions about the One Belt One Road Initiative, no hard questions about allowing CCP police in Hungary. https://t.co/CGzYhw5jPp
