    Magyar’s reaction at one of his rallies:

    It was also reported today in the international press—and confirmed by foreign intelligence services—that Péter Szijjártó was in constant contact with Moscow via a hotline during every session of the European Council in Brussels. At every moment, he briefed the Russian foreign minister—that is, Vladimir Putin—on what was being discussed behind closed doors by European government leaders and heads of state. Please, this is an open betrayal of European and Hungarian interests for the Hungarian foreign minister to brief the leaders of a country at war with a European nation. For Péter Szijjártó’s sake, I looked up the section of the Criminal Code regarding treason.

    Any Hungarian citizen who establishes or maintains contact with a foreign government or foreign organization with the intent to violate Hungary’s independence, territorial integrity, or constitutional order shall be punished by imprisonment for a term of five to fifteen years. The penalty is imprisonment for a term of ten to twenty years or life imprisonment if the act is committed by a state body using its position in public service or official capacity.

    What Péter Szijjártó did is outright treason. From here in Sopron, I can send this message:

    Russians go home, Russians go home! Russians go home!

    And JD vance wants to visit Budapest, Hungary in support of Orban and this current government? Wtf?
