Orbán fought Brussels for three years. Hungary ran 73.2% cumulative inflation—the highest in the EU—and GDP growth of 0.4%. In 2025, it became a net EU contributor for the first time since 2004. The frozen money did that.

A number of high-ranking officials are warning the Kremlin about the economic and political risks of internet blocking, which is being implemented at the initiative of the FSB, Bloomberg reports, citing sources familiar with the discussions.

😄 Bloomberg: The Kremlin may slow down its attack on the internet due to elite protests and Putin's plummeting approval ratings Internet restrictions and the attack on Telegram, Russia's most popular messaging app with nearly 100 million users, have caused a rift within the Russian elite.

Yes #Putin is losing … even by Peskov’s account. And #UKRAINE CAN KEEP #Novorossiysk and #Baltic ports shut down ad infinitum. @maks23.bsky.social @kyivindependent.com @uptoukraine.bsky.social @wartranslated.bsky.social @reuters.com

🇭🇺 Orban makes first statement after election defeat He said his party will hold a congress on April 28 and begin a reorganization with visits to all constituencies in the coming weeks.

Easter basket in Ukraine in 2026 and its price.

Yep. I mean, even the words he had about his own daughter were inappropriate and disgusting. There’s really no redeeming qualities to this man that I can see. He doesn’t even have a pet! Other than Lindsey graham. What kind of human being has NO redeeming qualities to them?

Trump's words on any single topic are typically unacceptable. Trump is truly the lowest form of human being our species is capable of producing.

YES ... and do see and share two pieces by @msignorile.bsky.social in this one blog re #Francis selection of Robert Prevost... expecting him to assume his current job.. open.substack.com/pub/signoril... @ncronline.bsky.social @catholicnewsagency.bsky.social @catholicnewssvc.bsky.social

🇮🇹❗️🇺🇸 Meloni: "I consider President Trump's words to the Holy Father unacceptable. The Pope is the head of the Catholic Church, and it is quite right and normal that he calls for peace and condemns all forms of war."

19 Russian Shaheds in 24 hours downed with Ukraine's STING interceptor drones by crews of the 38th Anti-Aircraft Missile Regiment. Drone maker Wild Hornets says those numbers are now routine, with the total rising when other UAV types are counted. 📹 Wild Hornets

In Zelensky’s latest video, Ukraine revealed a what is believed new domestically developed surface-to-air missile, likely tied to the Koral project. The system is expected to operate at 30-50 km range and could replace legacy Buk and S-300PT air defense systems. #Ukraine

Ukrainian Defenders pounded on the "Ural" & prevented the occupiers from installing a pontoon crossing Our fighters first burned the car, which completely blocked traffic. The occupiers tried to pull her away with a winch, for which they paid with their worthless lives 📹🖊️: Signum

Ukraine has created a new drone missile, Areion, based on the "Palyanitsa" The launch is possible from the container of the "Neptune" complex installation, as well as from a trailer. The combat part weighs up to 120 kg, and the range of destruction is up to 600 km.

Ukraine also unveiled a new surface-to-air missile likely adapted for Osa-AKM systems. The design resembles Soviet 9M33-series missiles, suggesting a domestic replacement using updated components and potentially improved performance. #Ukraine

🤡 Moscow has never been friends with Orban, — Kremlin spokesman Peskov.

YES @financialtimes.com put it in their report on Brussels response to the elections. www.ft.com/content/7c8b...

Budapest has spent years sounding like Moscow’s echo. Now a different voice is being heard. ㅤ Péter Magyar called Ukraine the victim of this war and asked Hungarians what land they would give up if Russia attacked them. This is at least where a normal relationship can begin.

@maks23.bsky.social @uptoukraine.bsky.social @united24media.com @kyivindependent.com @votevets.org @militarydotcom.bsky.social

FROM @financialtimes.com piece: Magyar said he saw no reason to renegotiate the €90bn loan agreement to #Ukraine, which EU leaders approved in December only for Orbán to veto earlier this year. AND

❗️The European Commission has proposed 27 conditions to Péter Magyar for unfreezing €35 billion in EU funding for Hungary. These include the immediate lifting of the veto on a €90 billion loan for Ukraine and the removal of the veto on a new package of sanctions against Russia.

YES 900 KM from #UKRAINE... more #HousewifeKitchen DRONES very effective.

🤩 More footage of beautiful strikes on important chemical plant in Russia.

Ukraine's Defense Minister Fedorov announced that Belgium and Spain will each provide €1 billion in aid to Ukraine, along with additional F-16s.

What about report there are 36 F-16's pledged but none have come???

🇧🇪🇪🇸🇺🇦Fedorov: Agreed on cooperation priorities with Belgium and Spain on the eve of Ramstein. Belgium is allocating €1 billion in defense assistance to Ukraine this year. The country also confirmed its intention to transfer additional F-16 and ensure the supply of spare parts for existing aircraft.

"For the first time in the history of this war, Ukraine has captured an enemy position using only ground robots and drones. The occupiers surrendered. The operation was carried out without infantry participation and with zero losses on our side." - Zelenskyy.

⚡️ BREAKING: Negotiations with Europeans regarding the creation of a joint sky defense system will take place this week, Zelenskyy says. "Either Ukraine will become an integral part of the European security system, or some in Europe risk becoming part of the Russian world," the president stated.

Location of the PhosArgo chemical plant struck by Ukraine.

💥 Russia: Ukrainian housewife kitchen drones struck the PhosAgro chemical plant in Cherepovets, Vologda region. Almost 900km from Ukraine. One of the largest phosphate plants in the world with annual output of 7.5 million tons of chemicals indispensable for munitions production.

🇺🇸 Trump: We’ve been called by the other side. They’d like to make a deal very badly. We are going to get the dust back; we will get it back from them, or we will take it. Iran will never have a nuclear weapon. If they don’t agree, there’s no deal.

The first thing Magyar should do is arrest Orban and investigate his links to Russia

🇭🇺 If the opposition party "Tisza" wins in Hungary, its leader Magyar plans to legally limit the maximum term of prime minister to two terms. Magyar said that about sixty reports of election fraud have been received so far.

🔥 ATESH destroyed a diesel locomotive in the Rostov region, dealing a blow to Russian Armed Forces supplies in the Zaporizhzhia sector. Agents of our movement carried out a successful act of sabotage near the Likhovsky railway station in the Rostov region.

Yeah good luck with that idea. Be careful with the Chinese tankers...

❗️On April 13 at 17:00 (Kyiv time), the United States will begin a naval blockade of all vessels entering or leaving Iranian ports — CENTCOM.

✈️🇺🇦 Nearly half of the pledged F-16 aircraft have been delayed for various reasons. This raises questions about whether the issue is systemic, what constraints exist, and how many F-16s Ukraine currently has in service. Belgium and Norway are delaying the transfer of 36 F-16 fighters.

🇭🇺 Magyar: Our country wants to live again. It wants to be a European country again. Crowd chants: "Russians go home!"
