The Spin

Xi Jinping and the Chinese Communist Party are trying to buy their way into the EU, and it is using Viktor Orban as a gateway. Beijing has invested millions in the country, and the countries are forging partnerships in EV and other industries. China is looking to reinforce its growing influence on Europe, and Budapest has no problem obliging, even if it means undermining democratic values and Western prosperity.

As Western hegemony fades, and the world enters a multipolar era, Hungary is engaging in talks to promote peace and prosperity with all countries. Viktor Orban is committed to ending deadly conflicts that are destroying Europe, and he understands that the global economy isn’t the same as it was 20 years ago. Hungary is looking out for its own economic interests in a way that benefits the entire world, and it won’t let antiquated foreign policy grudges stand in the way.
