The authoritarian leader of the last sixteen years is vehemently supported by both Vladamir Putin and Donald Trump, but is deeply unpopular among EU states. This week JD Vance landed in Budapest to campaign for him in an unprecedented move. On this week’s podcast Euronews Europe Correspondent Shona Murray describes Orban as a Trojan horse for Putin and analyses the impact of his authoritarian rule on both Hungary and the wider EU.
