“Would anyone really miss Orban, the young communist who learned from an early age about obedience to his Russian masters?”

Substitute Frau Merkel’s name in there and you could ask the same question, as the sanctimonious Germans continue to fund the Russian war machine.

As for Hungary, what they do is up to the Hungarians. They just re-elected Mr Orban solidly. I admire the fence he built.

It’s obvious that Mutti Merkel’s obedience training at Russia’s hands did not take as well as Orban’s, as Orban moves to make Hungary an oblast in all but name. Whereas Germany’s chancellor is at least providing aid to Ukraine while dialling down its consumption of Russian gas that Hungary also gets. Hungary won’t even let weapons for Ukraine through its territory, as befitting a Russian oblast. Orban’s one on one meetings with Putin clearly helped his personal balance sheet. Orban is just another Russian oligarch.
