This document analyzes the Trump administration's policy towards the Hungarian government, describing it as a radical departure that allows the Orban government to dismantle democratic institutions without U.S. intervention. It details specific instances of this, including the targeting of NGOs and universities, and highlights high-level meetings between U.S. and Hungarian officials. The document also explores potential Hungarian motivations for appeasement and the hopes of some Hungarians for a stronger U.S. stance on democratic values and anti-Semitism.
