@Real_Politik101 @FM_Szijjarto Vote Fidezs so Viktor Orban can get elephants and giraffes to join his Zebras at his modest family compound…which cost over €30 million.

@PM_ViktorOrban @ZelenskyyUa You built a corrupt, anti-democratic, self interest government to defraud the Hungarian people. This is what the Hungarian people overthrew in the past.

🇭🇺 We overthrew communism. We fought for our freedom. We built a Christian, family-oriented, patriotic nation. And now @ZelenskyyUa and the Brusselians think we will back down? Don’t be ridiculous.

@EUpalestinians Suspend the EU-Israel. Association Agreement. These words in the statement are nice, but will be dismissed as soon as they are read. When will we see real action with real consequences for what are real consequences for Palestinian families?

Western officials say the Kremlin is intent on preserving Orban, who has assisted Moscow in hampering key E.U. policies and acted as a bridge for the Kremlin to U.S. conservatives in hopes of forging a new post-liberal world order. washingtonpost.com/world/2026/03/…

@PM_ViktorOrban @zoltanspox Orban says the world has become a better place under Donald Trump, as an illegal war in the Middle East raises the cost of living for ordinary people. This is a man out of touch with the reality. The war was needless and we are all paying for it with much higher bills.

@Scott4293 @washingtonpost The only countries in this war who have nuclear weapons are the US and Israel. Iran was nowhere near having one, unless you believe Iraq had WMD.

The war in Iran, now in its third week, is causing oil prices to soar, saddling airlines with some of the highest fuel costs in years. Though it might seem counterintuitive, to save money, don’t book basic economy. Here's what experts recommend: wapo.st/4bEj5Sp

Ireland’s population chart remains a wild one to look at. The country has still not recovered from the Great Famine (1845-52).

@carlbildt It’s like the people running this war fired the strategists and have no idea of what a particular action will lead to. Yes we all pay for this madness. It’s not going to lead to any side backing down. It was never going to lead to the opening of the Strait of Hormuz.

@NoAlphaLimits Here's a detail for you. The United States is one of the largest oil & gas producers & exporters. We will be fine. Other countries, well thats on them. Maybe we will sell them energy but there will be no discounts for cowards.

🚨🚨🚨 ISRAEL JUST MADE THE SINGLE MOST DANGEROUS MILITARY DECISION OF THE ENTIRE WAR. AND NOBODY UNDERSTANDS WHAT THEY JUST TRIGGERED. 🚨🚨🚨 Israel and the U.S. struck South Pars — the LARGEST gas field on the planet. But here's what they either didn't know or didn't care about: South Pars is jointly managed by Iran AND Qatar. They didn't just attack Iran. They attacked the energy backbone of their OWN Gulf allies. Let that sink in. 💀 The IRGC just declared ALL major energy facilities across the entire GCC as "direct and legitimate targets" — and warned strikes are coming in the "COMING HOURS." 💀 Listed targets: Qatar's LNG complex, Saudi Aramco facilities, UAE oil terminals — EVERYTHING. 💀 Saudi Aramco has already EVACUATED workers from the SAMREF refinery in Yanbu. They're not waiting. They KNOW what's coming. 💀 Iranian hackers have ALREADY hit Aramco's digital systems — posting images and issuing threats to PARALYZE their infrastructure. 💀 Multiple EXPLOSIONS just heard in Riyadh — confirmed by Reuters, AFP, and AP. Sirens sounding in the Saudi capital. Do you understand the scale of what's happening? ⚠️ Qatar's LNG complex is the LARGEST on Earth. It supplies 30% of the world's liquefied natural gas. If Iran hits it — Europe's heating supply DISAPPEARS overnight. Not in months. OVERNIGHT. ⚠️ Saudi Aramco is the most valuable company on the PLANET — worth $1,800,000,000,000. Its refineries process 12 MILLION barrels per day. One successful strike takes 10% of the world's oil OFFLINE. ⚠️ In 2019, a SINGLE drone attack on Saudi Aramco's Abqaiq facility knocked out 5.7 million barrels per day and sent oil up 15% in ONE session. Iran now has 10x the motivation and NOTHING left to lose. They're showing you "precision strikes on Iranian targets." They're NOT showing you that those strikes just gave Iran the JUSTIFICATION to destroy every oil facility from Qatar to Saudi Arabia to the UAE. Here's the logic — follow it carefully: → You bomb a gas field that's JOINTLY OWNED with Qatar → Qatar — your own Gulf ally — publicly condemns you → Iran uses the attack as justification to target ALL Gulf energy → IRGC formally declares Gulf facilities as "legitimate targets" → Aramco starts EVACUATING refineries → Explosions hit RIYADH → You didn't weaken Iran. You gave them the excuse to burn down the ENTIRE Gulf's economy. If this was a "strategic victory," why is Aramco evacuating workers RIGHT NOW? If Iran's military is "degraded," why are 6 Gulf nations scrambling to protect their oil fields from an attack they believe is IMMINENT? Complete silence. You don't evacuate the world's most valuable company unless you KNOW what's coming. The IRGC said "coming hours." Not days. Not weeks. HOURS. And every Gulf state just went from spectator to TARGET. This is no longer a war between the U.S. and Iran. This is a war that's about to ERASE the Gulf's entire energy infrastructure — the infrastructure that powers HALF the planet. Prepare accordingly. 🚨🚨🚨 They don't want you seeing this. Follow + RT to beat the algorithm. 🚨

This is the heart of Beirut today. A city that has stood for 5,000 years. Israel is obliterating it — flattening civilian apartment block after apartment block. Not military targets. Civilian homes. Civilian infrastructure. Civilian life.

@FM_Szijjarto Hungary is not dragged into any war if the opposition wins. The biggest winner of a Fidezs victory would be Russia.

Enough is enough! We know it is your interest that the opposition wins elections in Hungary. They would let you drag Hungary into your war, they would let the money of the Hungarians be sent to you, and they would let Ukraine join the EU. But this will never happen! Stop telling lies, stop interfering in our elections, and do not use the Hungarian community in Transcarpathia for your dirty political goals!
Andrii Sybiha 🇺🇦@andrii_sybiha

Ukraine’s Security Service has uncovered a large-scale Russian disinformation operation targeted at members of Hungarian community in Ukraine. Russians made fake calls with threats to Hungarians posing as Ukrainian law enforcement. The revealed operation demonstrates the scale of Russian interference in Hungarian elections on the side of Viktor Orban. It cannot be excluded that such action was also made in coordination with his campaign. ssu.gov.ua/en/novyny/sbu-…
