Thread 'putin´s close friend, hardcore imperialist and former FSB agent Vladislav Surkov (Daduev) is currently in Hungary as a freelance advisor to Orban'

Mar 31, 2026

putin´s close friend, hardcore imperialist and former FSB agent Vladislav Surkov (born Aslambek Dudaev) is currently in Hungary as a freelance advisor to Orban “on building sovereign democracy.”
if Surkov is in Hungary why doesn't someone grab him? Isn't he a legitimate target for Ukraine? Trump´d give a green light as soon as possible ...

Péter Magyar / Tisza are far-right "populists". The main difference is that Magyar embraces the EU and Orban embraces Russia.

Tisza won Parliament by enough of a margin to create/revoke laws without needing the assistence of any other political parties to do so.

Fidesz is nationalist, which is further to the right than Tisza.

It was due to an overblown scandal in Hungary.

I guarantee you Hungary will not be better off years from now if this new guy turns into a pro-EU puppet.

Former Warsaw Pact member Poland has done quite well for itself as a member of the EU.

Hope that is true
but as some have pointed out they have a birth rate problem

how do you fix that? if tax incentives don't help not sure anything will

I once was friends with a man from, Hungary. We served together in the army. Can't ask him now. Your question is a good one. If it truly is important, keep asking Hungarians Is my thinking.
