- In this video, we take a look at the Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán - his political beginnings, how he created the Fidesz party and his political rise to power.
Orbán's evolution from liberal politician, who was part of a vibrant student movement in the 1980’s and 1990’s to winning his first elections and becoming Hungary’s Prime Minister who is called a populist, and by some, even a dictator. Following the political career and biography of Viktor Orbán, we also discuss the latest history of Hungary, political parties in Hungary, its creeping nationalism and dealing with the recent migrant crisis.
The biography of Viktor Orbán makes him one of the most fascination politicians in Europe right now. The young Viktor Orbán was idealistic and looking to learn from Western democracies, even being funded by the George Soros foundation. The Viktor Orbán of today is rubbing elbows with Putin and Trump, and has pursued a media and power grab of Hungary’s institutions like no politician before him.
Our OSW experts cover these issues and more in this Viktor Orbán documentary.

Any translated really well.
Viktor Orbán, he became conservative and sorrounded by Capitalists to support.
20:40 sorry, but orban did not loose that debate. gyurcsány lied several times, and thoose lies cost the left wing at least 20 years of despair
lose those
20:42 I saw him giving several 5-10 minute interviews for opposition media just in the last period.
Orban is Hungarian Reformed, that is, Protestant.
There is a missing part. In 1994 the liberal party (SZDSZ) made coalition with the communist heritage party. That was unacceptable for many liberal politicans, and fidesz denied to make that coaliton. So liberalism changed, not orban.
Also jobbik was not a fidesz rival party, its a workers party, in early 2000s they were MSZP voters, where conservative voters were already united by fidesz.
Its might be odd, but in early 2000s the socialist party was a primitive openly racist populist party, just like jobbik, and nationalism vs EU was not in focus.
After that ferenc gyurcsány who wanted to be the strongman of the hungarian left made the rest of the intellectual liberal base vanish behind from the soc-lib coalition.
So literally the liberal and conservative intellecutal base united in one side, and on the otherside there is nothing but salesmans whom make their living by selling to the west the story about the mindbinder dictator. When will you wake up?!
There was no round table talks in Hungary. It was a triangular shape. I think.
Who’s this Gisnaska? People from Ukraina are talking politics about Orban. She should know that the 1960s in most places in Europe was no running water on countryside. Not only in Hungary, but in most European countries. So this beggans with a hipocracy. You try to make Orban to a Soros product, however, Orbas wasn’t for sale…
This guy is like a red alert against communism. Whenever he sees the signs of far-left leaning or EU leaders flirting with the radical left, he switches into alert mode. Like a superboosted immune cell, he goes radical in language, and spares no criticism. According to him, the world has two types of nations: the ones that have experienced communism (therefore immune against it), and the ones that haven't. He spends thousands of futile moments of his time trying to explain how dangerous communism is to those who belong to the latter group. Western countries do and they will soon be devoured by their own communist ideologies.
Today western globalists have an ideological background rooted in Marxism, called neomarxism, which considers sovereign nation states as an ultimate evil. Brussels has fallen hostage to these globalist circles. In Orbán's book the western globalists are non the less radical than the far-right nationalists, which he does not belong to. He is a patriot who respects other nation states but expects the same respect from the others. This is the story from his point of view, but his person and politics have been interpreted by many people in many ways.
So much BS! Not even in Europe, much less in the US does Communist have any chance. It's the far right and fascism is the danger. The French reacted and Le Pen's party came in third. Trump is doing very badlyl. Orban has bet on the wrong horse. There will be consequences.
KELETI NYESCA
Let me educate OSW. When Orban was a "liberal freedom fighter" he was against the Soviet occupation of Hungary ,a very conservative and "populist" platform, popular and conservative which required a lot of courage. Now, you accuse him of the same, a conservative populist behavior. No matter what he is doing, in your books he is evil. You are barking wrongly, the main decision about him belongs to the people: 2/3 voting for him. Study that you little people.
He wasn't considered evil back then. He was a hero. He was a hero to a lot of pple. Not any more. He's led HUngary to be the poorest, most corrupt country with the highest inflation. And isolated. Now he seems to support Putin, Xi, Trump, etc. A very bald place to be. What on earth happened to him is a mystery. Pple are very angry.
