    Xi’s plan: give us what we want and we’ll stop. Putin’s plan: give us what we want and we’ll stop. Netanyahu’s plan: give us what we want and we’ll stop.

    Just adult bullies, really, Orban is trying to seem relevant.

      All the dictators are running a train on Orban so they can pretend they have the EU by the balls while Hungary has the presidency.

    Orban does what Putin wants. Hungarian cleptocrats depend on russian gas and european subsidies. And Putin has Orbans vote to now invade other countries in east europe. Nice new world order … not!
