kickl has often said that hungarian prime minister viktor orbán is a role model for him, and he willpport him, the report said. like many other friends of putin, kickl and his colleagues place the blame for the war in ukraine on nato, writes bbc ukraine. leader of the austrian party svobody openly opposes the allocation of money for military aid to ukraine and... sanctions against russia. they oppose kyiv's support and participation in anti-russian sanctions, considering it a violation of austria's neutrality. as a neutral country, austria does not help ukraine with weapons, but provides financial assistance to kyiv. vienna, in particular, allocated 2 million euros for demining equipment in ukraine. austria also makes payments to the european peace fund, from which it is financed. supply of weapons to the armed forces. kickle wants to put an end to this. kickle promises to deliver cross and on the ambitions of ukraine to join the european union. he declares a threat to european agriculture and promises to block the continuation of negotiations with kyiv - writes bbc ukraine. also, as

but in the same time by the way appears viktor orbán, prime minister of hungary, during the un generalssembly in new york he worked according to some media on the organization of a peace summit, which should be a continuation of his so-called peacekeeping mission, we remember this peacekeeping mission, when he came to kyiv, to moscow, and in fact, where russia should be invited, and in fact in this way he supported this peace plan of china and brazil, mr. igor, to what extent do you consider such initiatives to be real, can it really be assumed that it will play a role any significant role in the international arena, is this information noise of china that wants to advance... its position and its certain hegemony in the international arena, please, i would say that it is even, you know, information spam, so they are trying to in a way to draw attention to itself somewhere, while it looks like this, for two reasons: firstly, they never presented a normal plan of any kind, that is normal, there are some six points that they they said, well, it's not serious, you will then come up with so

hungarian prime minister viktor orban said that the european union would enter an economic cold war ifecision was approved. the spanish economy minister, addressing the president of the european commission, called on the eu to compromise with china. he noted that it is necessary to find the right balance, both technically and politically. europe should avoid serious conflicts. some of the leading economies of the european union, such as germany and hungary, are rightly wary of overly decisive, unfriendly measures towards china, realizing that such measures could negatively affect the eu states themselves, slow down or even stop industrial cooperation with china and the exchange of goods that are necessary. to maintain and develop the european economy. possible counter-peaces of beijing can extremely painfully hit the interests of european auto brands, especially those who have joint production in china. first of all, we are talking about the german concerns volkswagen and bmw. for statistics, last year almost 440,000 electric cars were delivered from china to the eu for a total of 10 b

at the general assembly un viktor orban held intensive talks with representatives of brazil and chinapeace summit, which would be attended by putin and zelensky. at this stage, the participants of the initiative, which has already been joined by representatives of 15 countries, are discussing the location of such a summit, remember the recent trip, well, maybe not recent for many, but for us, in light of the development of political events, it seems that these are things, well, still quite close in time to today, the trip orban to russia, to ukraine, to china, to the united states, then he met with trump, it would seem that everything is going somewhere. this whole formula, it has not been baptized, it still continues, in fact, somehow , to be extracted from what is happening, in fact, on the line of combat contact, therefore the body can voice its fantasies as much as it wants, but nevertheless , in reality, right here, on this map, it is being formed, which we actually see in this studio, listen, it is interesting, they will now, therefore, many participate in the race for the role

he's talked about viktor orban and their relationship and also has welcomed viktor orban to his mar-a-lagof course, two weeks ago at trump tower, he held almost a dueling bilateral meeting with president zelenskyy, and the ukrainian president, and the ukrainians are under no guise that there could very well be in 2025 a president donald trump that they will rely on not only financial aid for but also regional support. and for donald trump, you know, two weeks ago i asked him about his meeting with zelenskyy and whether he explicitly urged zelenskyy to be prepared to cede ukrainian territory to russia in order to bring russia's war and aggression, invasion of ukraine to an end, and he refused to answer that very specific question. we still do not have a good understanding of exactly what donald trump told president zelenskyy behind closed doors, and you can make the case that it's not in zelenskyy's interest to publicly broadcast the words of donald trump either here. there are serious conversations about what the former president and the individual who is not currently occupying the white

process, from my point of view, i do not want to idealize robert fitza, i do not want to idealize viktor orban trump, anyone, but because of these small bold checkers, as well as the act of odessans who came out to the pushkin monument, yes, there are few of them, but maybe this group of people will save all of odessa, maybe they will, and exactly the same from these actions. this is not the history of russia there since 1917 or since 1905, we are talking about a millennium, about centuries, in this history everything is perceived as one single whole, it is happening completely differently now in europe and it is happening completely differently in the world, because they have broken history into separate pieces, they have built history for themselves in such a way that each time you can choose something for yourself and these pieces. divide in such a way that they maybe they can contradict each other and no one will question it, here is a fresh example, this is germany, when we take, let's say, berbuk, which on the one hand says, we are to israel, we are obliged as germany to israel, on the o

hungarian prime minister viktor orban said, that the european union would enter an economic cold warthe decision was approved. the spanish economy minister, addressing the president of the european commission, called on the eu to compromise with china. he noted that it was necessary to find the right balance both technically and politically. europe should avoid serious conflicts. some of the leading economies. beijing's possible counter-peace could be extremely painful for the interests of european auto brands, especially those with joint production in china. in first of all, we are talking about the german concerns volkswagen and bmw. for statistics, last year almost 440,000 electric cars were delivered from china to the eec for a total of 10 billion euros, in the opposite direction only 11 thousand cars for 850 million. this is a very. not a serious situation for the chinese car plant, but for the future, how it will be further, it depends on the european union, what will happen next , besides electric cars, what will be other goods from china, will there be some new tariff or furt

the netherlands, in particular one of such statements escalated into a protracted conflict with viktor orbans recently settled. nato officials and diplomats expect and predict that arjuta will maintain stoltenberg's priorities in his new post, encouraging nato countries to spend more on defense, involving the united states in ensuring european security and, of course, mobilizing support for ukraine. as prime minister of the netherlands, futa acted as an ally of ukraine and today, as was said, he has already made these statements. priority to strengthen our support for ukraine and bring it closer to nato, because there can be no lasting security in europe without a strong, independent ukraine. we must do our part, we must implement the package agreed at the washington summit, the command, the financial commitments and the irreversible path of ukraine to membership, and we must support this initiative in the future, because ukraine's rightful place is in nato. ruet will be the nato secretary general who will be particularly notable for leading the coordination group. on the transfer of weapons

this is this is viktor orban. and so for somebody like viktor orban, you know he shares with putin a desire to push back against liberal ideas. and i just mean small l liberal. i the ideas of, you know, about an independent an independent judiciary, you know, because, because you know, he does very well without one. and he doesn't really want to hear from his partners in nato's or in the european union that he should have one. and so its interests are for him. that's that's in his interest the way it's in in in putin's there's there's a similar story to be told about erdogan as well. and, and hungary has orban has deliberately made himself a kind figure who can go either way. he has he's encouraged for large and very opaque russian and chinese into hungary. so there's a russian nuclear power plant project in hungary whose all of the documents about the plant and its financing are secret and you know is that being used to fund the ruling party? we don't really know don't really know how it how it functions. so so h

prime minister, in particular, one of such statements escalated into a protracted conflict with viktor orbanwas only recently resolved, nato officials and diplomats expect and predict that arjuto will maintain jens stoltenberg's priorities in his new post, encouraging nato countries to spend more on defense, involving the united states in providing. ukraine's reversible path to membership, and we must support this initiative in the future, because ukraine's rightful place is in nato. ruta will be the nato secretary general who, in particular, will take over the management of the coordination group for the transfer of weapons to kiev, the baltic countries, which were previously under washington's jurisdiction, like the united states, will ensure that ruta really takes care of increasing the allies' defense spending the netherlands. by the way, under his leadership. did not achieve of 2% of gdp and now the outgoing, or rather resigned, nato agent sek jan stoltenberg said that even 2%, in his opinion, is not enough. in his last interview in office, he also called on skeptical european governmen

behind the scenes of the un general assembly, prime minister viktor orban held intensive talks with chinaut holding a peace summit between russia and ukraine, vladimir putin and volodymyr zelensky. at the moment, orban has already secured the support of 15 countries, or as the hungarian prime minister himself calls them, friends of peace. negotiations about time and the venue of the peace. summit is currently underway, in addition to hungary, china and brazil, france and switzerland will also be participating, viktor orban seems to be extremely determined to see the peace talks on ukraine through to the end. if we say that the only way for ukraine to become a nato member is to end the war and take full control over all of ukrainian territory, then we are giving president putin every incentive to simply find a way to continue the war. i am not on russia's side, but unfortunately the reality is that the war in ukraine will end through a peaceful resolution. the biden administration has not defined what a victory for ukraine means. they are not saying what that victory will look like, and if

that was the question they asked viktor orban, who is really a very considered a very strong -- theys you need a strongman. he's a strongman. he's the prime minister of hungary, and he said you bring back trump, everybody -- now, i'm not saying it. but he said it. because i would rather say respect, but he said everybody was afraid of trump. you bring him back, you're not going to have any problems. >> no problems. there wouldn't be any problems. hi again, everybody. 5:00 in new york. sometimes you need a strong man. it doesn't get any less jaw dropping the more times you hear him say that about viktor orban, because it comes from the man who is currently running to lead what used to be what we think of as the shining city on a hill, the world's greatest democracy. donald trump's embrace in public of strong men who represent the opposite of that, and in particular, the autocratic leader he talked about there, viktor orban, further today as the hungarian leader posted this, quote, just got off the phone with president donald trump. i wished him the best of luck for next tuesday. only

arriving in georgia tonight, hungary's prime minister viktor orban.looser eu, less integration, more power for the nation states. it's the kind of europe moscow would almost certainly prefer to deal with. georgia's president backs closer ties with brussels. she's worried and is calling for help. it's crucial that the georgian people express themselves, that's why it's crucial that our partners and with the population and support us to come back as soon as possible on the european path. but not to make it easy for russia to re—establish its domination on its neighbours. they made their voices heard but membership of the eu feels a long way off now for georgia. projected onto the parliament building, one word — stolen. for many here, that's not just about the election, it's about their future. a vietnamese people smuggler, who entered the uk illegally this year in a small boat, has told the bbc that he's forging visa documents for other vietnamese who also want to make the journey. he's claiming asylum — despite admitting he's been people—smuggling for

possibility of participating in such a peace initiative, besides, even we are not surprised by this, but viktor orbán the prime minister of hungary, also basically said that he is ready to join in fact, to this informal... group of china, brazil or the global south, and what they offer in china, in particular, onegi offers the following formula: first negotiations, or rather , i apologize, first a ceasefire, then negotiations and refraining from sanctions, that is, such a triad. mr. vitaly, i have a question for you regarding this... plan, can this plan be considered as which, which, which plays into putin's hand, and what game china and brazil are playing now against the background of, again, the same elections in the usa, and the same the very plans presented by ukraine and our allies. well, by the way, this is the answer to the question of how much we ourselves have played this game with a large number of countries. who should support our peace formula, how important are these representative international forums to us, do we not think that someone else can also hold them, because we understand tha

all other western politicians evaluate the words of biden, karis, trump, vance, well, the same viktor orban, let’s say there or someone else, they absolutely calmly comment on various statements of the american administration regarding the war in ukraine, or the statements of garis, right? and no one believes that this is interference in the american elections. why exactly, when zelensky talks about his attitude to the new yorker magazine j.d. vance's position, which is a national security challenge to his country, he no longer discusses j.d. vance's views on the situation on the border between the united states and mexico, however, he is talking specifically about ukraine. why, from the point of view of linzi graham, this is interference in elections. therefore, a very simple question arises here: what should you not do in order not to inflate them. in other words, at this time of the election, how can you make them think that you are not annoying them, maybe you are annoying them by the very fact of your existence? well, that is, if after all to take it as an axiom that the problem is not

the european union is turning into a second-tier economy, this is what hungarian prime minister viktor orbans, adding, that if brussels continues to ignore the problem, nothing good awaits the region, especially against the backdrop of rapid growth in asian gdp and the strengthening of russia and the brics. the pressure of the great depression is predicted for the world economy and the head of the european central bank christine lagarde, according to her, between the two... parallels, and the main thing is the failures in the integration of world trade. it is only this 1920 and 2020 that stand out somewhat as the tip of the iceberg, among the problems that threaten western countries, here is what the experts say, let's listen to their forecast. we are in recently we have been carefully analyzing publications in the german press, and i would like to note that the experts there no longer hope. for any recovery growth in the german economy this year, on the contrary, it is predicted that the decline in the frg economy will continue, this year the approximate decline will be 0.1% of gdp, which m

so far, it looks like only hungarian leader viktor orban, supported by his slovak counterpart robertitsoo, is against a more substantial european involvement in the ukrainian war, and what about italy? prime minister meloni hopes to bypass this phase of escalation and avoid having to take a clear position. i know that the vast majority of italian citizens are against any deeper involvement of the country in the war. and this position, at the moment , conflicts with the position of the brussels establishment. and many other politicians say that we need to stop sending weapons to ukraine. we need to stop the war, we need to make a treaty between the two countries. this is the right way to solve problems, but there is also massive propaganda to convince the italian people that it is right, that the war must continue, but more and more people understand that this is propaganda, this is a lie, and they want to stop the war. escalation and supported negotiations with russia, this number has increased significantly, but they lack unity and determination. do you think that the new compositio

, here is how the inhabitants of this garden see its prospects, the prime minister of hungary, viktor orbanis characteristic frankness concludes the bell is already ringing in europe explains the european union is turning into a second- tier economy. the gdp of asian countries, on the contrary , is growing rapidly, and russia and brics are getting stronger. if brussels continues to ignore the problem. nothing good awaits the region. it is difficult not to agree. so the region does not expect anything good, including because we were presented with new european commissioners. one lady. the peoples of the european union occupy, especially political parties occupy some kind of pro-european position, a pro-russian position, and want to negotiate with russia, this is still a long way off, right-wing parties came to austria in 2000, they also the freedom party were in the government together with the people's party, this rightward tilt, it seems to me, we are assessing it a little incorrectly, because after all, the right parties o... i found such an interesting post, so, an oppositionist who fled

i mean, the hungarian government has been in power for a lot longer in viktor orban has succeeded in taking hold of the institutions of the state, undermining the media, undermining the judiciary, so he has created a system whereby overtime, you can't really remove him from power. but he has been very careful not to do what trump is doing, in other words to use violent language, to encourage violence. i mean, and so, trump is more extreme than some of the other people we see around the world who are seeking to become one- party states or indefinite leaders. >> and ruth, we just have a couple minutes left, but i want to bring something up, in terms of violent rhetoric, you know, just a couple days ago, speaker mike johnson and senate minority leader mitch mcconnell put out a statement, i have it right here. calling on the vice president to tone down her rhetoric. they write, "we call on the vice president to take these threats seriously, stop escalating the threat environment, and help in short president trump has the necessary resources to be protected from those threats." what does

whether it is the return of the pro-russian prime minister of slovakia to power, or hungary and viktor orban, whose sympathies for putin are well known. domestic political news from germany will obviously worry kiev, given how important germany's support has been for it since the beginning of the war. we have made several decisions for ourselves that are very clear to me, including the fact that germany will not lift restrictions on the use of long-range weapons, this is incompatible with my personal position. i have always justified my red lines by the fact that the war could escalate. our partners are allowing strikes on russian territory. the americans are at least considering allowing this to ukraine. the french in any case. this is his opinion, and what do you think? i think that we should not point the finger at others, unfortunately, this is constantly happening in politics now, but it is wrong, we cannot create peace in europe like this, we must create it together, now we have one important goal, he spoke about long-term goals, the chancellor and i, as well as the entire federal gove

trump's close buddies, vladimir putin, who he takes orders from and kim jong and president xi and viktor orban are going to be doing everything in their power undermine democracy in america. >> and so we want the democracies of the world to stand up for democracy in america, we have a fair constitutional process and we are going to stand by the constitutional process that we have a real election with real election results and we are i'm not going to allow them to throw chaos into our system again with propaganda disinformation and violence and so what, what about just looking ahead a couple of steps ahead here because i know this is something you're focused on that some house members are bipartisan, by the way, are focused on making king sure that that election can be certified, that there is not a repeat of what happened in 2020. >> what what are you doing and how do you think that can best be handled? >> well the first thing people need to understand is that we are going to have a physically secure joint session of congress called for under the 12th amendment on january 6, i know a lot of pe

trump's face when he's with someone like vladimir putin or kim jong-un or hungarian prime minister viktor orban point of comparison, here he is next to democratically elected angela merkel. [ laughter ] "when they said the german chancellor was coming, you were not what i was expecting." [ laughter ] trump's never happier than when he's with a -- look at him with orban. the only way this could get any better for trump is if they were meeting inside the kitchen at mcdonald's. [ laughter ] "i've worked here. those are the heat lamps. that doesn't have a name." [ laughter ] this is not a complicated story. trump is a fascist who likes other fascists and wants to emulate fascism. if you're shrugging that off as baked in, then you're just saying you're okay with fascism. if you're still supporting trump, just admit you think fascism is cool. it's awesome. it's -- >> fierce.

in hungary, turkey, or a decade ago in russia and when trump says he admires putin or ed myers viktor orbanwhat he admires. they don't have to worry about the rules and norms and laws and the constitution. i saw kelly saying, in several different places, in the atlantic as well as the new york times, i saw him saying, you know, i kept telling president trump that i swore an oath to the constitution. that my loyalty is the constitution, not to him personally. i am loyal to the office of the president, not donald trump and he found that impossible to understand, because that is not part of the way he thinks about the world. >> and applebaum, thanks for your time tonight. >> thank you. >> still to come, why is the world's richest man pushing election lies in pennsylvania and is he violating the law with $1 million offers to voters? that is straight ahead. i told myself i was ok with my moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis symptoms... ...with my psoriatic arthritis symptoms. but just ok isn't ok. and i was done settling. if you still have symptoms after trying a tnf blocker like humira or en

>> the likes of viktor orban or vladimir putin trump in the room with vladmir putin and xi jinping with modi, with ave he's able to hold his own. >> i certainly don't think kamala harris could do that. donald trump knows how to negotiate, knows how to deal with world leaders. and you can deal from a position of strength that's what americans need right now. that's what american should be asking themselves this close to the election is who will represent our nation, who will put us back in a posture of strength donald trump clearly can do that because he's done it before under his watch, we had no major wars break out. as soon as joe biden and kamala harris came back into office, we saw the exact opposite. we've got hot wars now in the middle east, you see what's happening in ukraine and russia. no more attention than we haven't seen that level of tension in the far east that's going on right now in years. it's a very bad situation that's occurred over the past 3.5 years. kamala harris could have done something about it if she were serious. obviously, she didn't. >> and i think the ameri

and donald trump himself it keeps talking about how much he admires viktor orban, who isn't authoritarian against women? yes. well, there we also remember that several hundred women who have been victims of sexual assault did an ad in the new york times this week to point out that someone who has been found criminally normally liable for the same should not be president. >> i mean, the dynamics here in terms of saying a woman and male and the and just even the gender dynamics, we're talking about in this in this election we got to bring it back together and just that kind of language is so disturbing to answer your question, kasie election is closed because that still resonates with a lot of people, no matter how problematic some of the languages we talked a lot on the program yesterday about how men are at issue. black black-man the manosphere, this kind of stuff. >> because people can't afford the groceries. >> border open. >> you're not saying that that's not important, but the judge under god i suppose was on incredibly stark display with that tucker carlson moment. thanks to all of y

should care if he's a nazi you should care if he's pro, all sorts of other authoritarians like viktor orban and, you putin and various others that's all relevant. but even if you don't care about those things, even if you're more interested in pocketbook issues, he's still not going to be good for your time and a lot of this stuff. hell, i've been discussing this for over a year now on this network the needle hasn't necessarily moved against the former president. i'm just speaking as a strategist here. there's a reason this race is tied neck and neck. now, perhaps some people may dismiss it. perhaps there are other priorities that people are more concerned about, but clearly that message alone isn't resonating with enough voters to give vice president harris a comfortable lead in this race? i have this in the bag, but she doesn't for a reason it's not that message alone. >> this isn't the only thing that she's talking about. one of the things that i thought was so good because i will tell you what. i don't know. i listened i understand. >> you're not listening very well, last night, what sh
