Hungary's Orban backs Polish nationalist presidential candidate Nawrocki at CPAC
- Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán endorsed Karol Nawrocki, a far-right Polish presidential candidate, ahead of the election on Sunday, May 31, 2025, in Poland.
- This endorsement followed strong support from Donald Trump's allies and MAGA influencers at CPAC Poland, who sought to boost Nawrocki's campaign amid a tight race against centrist Rafał Trzaskowski.
- Speakers at CPAC Poland framed the election as a ‘battle for Western civilisation’, opposing the EU’s Green Deal and Brussels’ influence, while promising U.S. Military support if Nawrocki wins.
- Nawrocki pledges to block judiciary independence, restrict Ukrainian NATO membership, and prioritize Poles over immigrants, with critics warning these positions may aid Russia’s interests in the region.
- Orbán’s backing suggests a broader effort by Trump-aligned European far-right groups to reclaim national sovereignty and challenge EU policies, potentially affecting next year’s Hungarian elections and the continent’s political direction.
