Watch: "How Hungary Beat Woke Culture" - Balázs Orbán, PM's Political Director

• 6 Oct 2022 5:49 AM

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks to Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s Political Director Balázs Orbán about Hungarian politics and how it is successfully redefining nationalism; why individual freedom does not need to be sacrificed when prioritizing national identity.

Also in the video below he gives his opinion on:

* How Hungary is dealing with population decline and its declining birth rate;

* How woke culture was brought into the country through NGOs and international media companies;

* How Hungary is defending its culture from wokeness and how the European Union is fighting back;

* Why despite being one of the the fastest-shrinking countries in Europe it maintains strict controls on how many migrants can enter the country;

* What you haven’t been told about the migrant crisis; how the European Union tries to punish countries that try to fight illegal immigration and how it’s dealing with the Ukranian refugee crisis.
