Well, we’ll likely see a flood of “aid” to NGOs in Hungary. USAID, for example, which is a well known face to the CIA will seek to bring everything from “media freedom” to “democracy initiatives” and whatever other doublespeak is required. Within 6-8 months I suspect we will see riots in Budapest. Don’t be misled, I’m telling you this now, ahead of time. They will be instigated by the aforementioned group or groups with the ultimate goal of unseating Orban, a democratically elected and wildly popular leader or the ruling party.

Hungary is working actively to ensure their energy is independent of EU/NATO.

According to a reuters article,

Hungary will veto any European Union sanctions against Russia affecting nuclear energy, Prime Minister Viktor Orban told state radio on Friday.

Ukraine has called on the 27-nation EU to include Russian state nuclear energy company Rosatom in sanctions but Hungary, which has a Russian-built nuclear plant it plans to expand with Rosatom, has blocked that.

So what to expect?

Well, we’ll likely see a flood of “aid” to NGOs in Hungary. USAID, for example, which is a well known face to the CIA will seek to bring everything from “media freedom” to “democracy initiatives” and whatever other doublespeak is required. Within 6-8 months I suspect we will see riots in Budapest. Don’t be misled, I’m telling you this now, ahead of time. They will be instigated by the aforementioned group or groups with the ultimate goal of unseating Orban, a democratically elected and wildly popular leader or the ruling party.

The difference this time is that it appears many are onto this tried and tested and repeated strategy. It is why Orban has been taking preventative measures ahead of time. Will it be successful or will there be a “color revolution” in Hungary? I dunno, but I do know there is a war on and it’ll not be televised — at least not what is really going on. Interesting times, my friends.

Now realize what Orban is up against here. Hungary is economically tied to the EU and highly dependent on trade with it. Any split will be painful, no matter what. As such, the natural and obvious thing to do is to shore up alternative alliances in order to mitigate the inevitable pain if — or indeed when — the Hungarians decide that, as painful as it is, an exit needs to take place.

This is why we’re seeing him taking the steps he’s been taking (military and building stronger relations with both Serbia and Turkey).

Implications?

From our perspective, we’re watching the currency of this klustafuk known as the European Union.

The euro has rallied off recent lows in October of last year, but don’t be fooled, this is a currency that has every reason to fail. We expect it to continue to weaken against both Western alternatives and certainly against energy and precious metals.

What else? Well, I did note that the Hungarians have been forming some friendships with the Turks.
