After US, Hungary declares Antifa as a terrorist organisation as Orban follows Trump's footsteps
Hungary follows the U.S. by listing Antifa as a terrorist group, enabling sanctions and blacklisting to counter what it views as violent left-wing extremism, Prime Minister Orbán said.
- On Friday, Hungary published a newly created list naming Antifa groups after Prime Minister Viktor Orbán vowed to follow President Donald Trump's lead.
- On Monday, President Donald Trump signed an order designating Antifa a domestic terrorist organisation after Charlie Kirk was shot on September 10, prompting Budapest's move.
- The decree specifies financial sanctions and blacklisting of individuals, with only organisations not on EU or UN sanctions lists eligible; it names the Antifa grouping and Hammerbande/Antifa Ost linked to 2023 Budapest assaults.

- Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó urged the European Union to align with the US on Antifa, framing the move amid NATO‑Russia tensions to keep Central Europe an "island of peace and security.
