Same shit different pile: Orban fears Putin. April 2024 NatCon speech in Brussels

Same shit different pile: Orban fears Putin. April 2024 NatCon speech in Brussels.

This excerpt shows Orban's thoughts regarding the invasion of Ukraine by Russia. Hungary wants no part in war "between Slavic brother nations". He presents a superficially convincing argument to his host. To dismantle his argument we observe that if UA is now a protectorate it is only because it has been strangled by RU, who derive benefit from being the only nuclear power in this two-party war. Orban masks his fear of the atom bomb well. We presume similar arguments were once made by Rakosi.

Let's look at the events surrounding the attempted bombing of Israel by Iran on 13 April 2024. Launched were 300 or so drones and missiles. They were unwinged by an ad-hoc group of American, British and French forces, using both ground-based and airborne forces. What interests us here is the reaction of David Cameron of the MFAUK when [0,1] he was confronted by the question: if it's good for Israel, why isn't it good for Ukraine.

Cameron blanched and thrashed. His answer stinks. This is the answer Orban would have given, were Hungary able to afford to field aircraft and a first-world foreign policy. Cameron masks his fear of the atom bomb poorly.

We see no reason why Russia is able to intimidate supposed first-world nations away from freedom of navigation over the Black Sea, or from helping our friends in Ukraine with a #noflyzone over their sovereign territory.

Orban should be more careful in choosing his allies, for some wolf or another is sure to come knocking at Hungary's door.
