The French-language news portal Breizh-Info has published a long interview in French with Hungarian Member of Parliament László Toroczkai, who is the leader of the opposition nationalist parliamentary group Mi Hazánk Mozgalom. The following is an English translation.

László Toroczkai has been a leading figure in Hungarian nationalism for 25 years. His biography has few equals in this political milieu. He began as a young parliamentary assistant working with the Hungarian Justice and Life Party, or MIÉP, in the late 1990s, which was a nationalist party that had parliamentary representation between 1998 and 2002.

The following is the text of a talk that was given at the recent Counter-Currents Spring Retreat. The video can be seen here, or below.

Cyan asked me to speak on this topic, and before I begin, I just want to clarify something, because when it comes to these matters I’m overly pedantic. But historically speaking, ethnonationalism and religion don’t go together. This is because the nation-state itself, which was born out of either the French Revolution or the Second English Civil War, depending on who you ask, has always been secular and opposed to any mixing of politics and religion.

I met Béla Incze at the very intense sports camp of Légió Hungária (LH) in Hungary, as I previously wrote about. Béla is part of the group’s leadership. I was intrigued by his organization and its activities. I think a similar one could work in other European countries. Béla’s life story is also interesting, so I decided to interview him. We discussed sports, Hungarian politics, nationalist activities in Hungary, combat sports, the Hungarian youth, women, destroying a BLM statue, historical Hungary, holding demonstrations, and Viktor Orbán. I think we will hear more about him in the future. (more…)

Jobbik, svého času označovaný za nejradikálnější parlamentní stranu v Evropě, se v průběhu několika málo let proměnil v centristické a Evropské unii nakloněné uskupení, čímž zcela opustil svou dřívější radikální rétoriku, namířenou proti EU, NATO, hnutí LGBT nebo cikánské zločinnosti. Dnes se strana pokouší vytvořit spojenectví s liberální a progresivní levicí s cílem svrhnout vládu premiéra Viktora Orbána a jeho strany Fidesz. V tomto článku se pokusíme stručně nastínit průběh tohoto politického obratu o 180°. (more…)

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán set himself a very high rhetorical bar with his speech in Transylvania in July. In one sense it could be seen as a sort of “coming attractions” for his Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) speech in Texas, which he gave less than two weeks later. (more…)

Jak jsem uvedl ve svém předchozím článku, kde jsem proběhnuvší maďarské volby zasadil do širšího kontextu, očekávání pravice byla skromná. Průzkumy sice naznačovaly, že Viktor Orbán a jeho strana Fidesz s největší pravděpodobností budou vládnout i čtvrté volební období v řadě (celkově páté), ale průzkumy se často mýlí. Mnozí se obávali, že levicově-liberální opozice, která poprvé vystupovala jako jednotný blok, by ho mohla sesadit, nebo přinejmenším snížit podporu Fideszu a upřít mu nadpoloviční většinu v parlamentu, které se těší nepřetržitě od roku 2010.

La Nouvelle Librairie has begun publishing Les Carnets Rebelles (The Rebel’s Notebooks) by Dominique Venner. The first volume, which was published at the end of 2021 and is an anthology of observations and autobiographical anecdotes, reveals the passions and lucidity of this unique historian. The editorial staff offers its readers an extract, probably dating from the beginning of the 1990s, in which Dominique Venner underlines the real issue of the fall of Communism in the East: “This emerging movement, which has no name yet, repudiates liberalism as well as socialism. It is a return to the sources of the peoples.” (more…)
