- [What Should Hungary Do with Its Defence Industry after 2026?](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/07/09/what-should-hungary-do-with-its-defence-industry-after-2026/) - A new PROSUM Foundation policy paper argues that Hungary’s emerging defence industrial base should not be dismantled, but strategically consolidated, depoliticised and integrated into NATO and EU defence planning.
- [Le Mans: Where Manufacturers Race Not Only for Victory, but for the Future](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/07/05/le-mans-where-manufacturers-race-not-only-for-victory-but-for-the-future/) - The 24 Hours of Le Mans is far more than a motorsport event. It is a technology laboratory, a brand building stage, an industrial stress test and a strategic message to the market. A manufacturer that lines up at Le Mans is not simply trying to win a race. It is trying to prove that its brand is fast, durable, innovative and capable of surviving one of the toughest tests in the automotive world.
- [The Greatest Luxury of Modern Society: Doing Nothing](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/07/02/the-greatest-luxury-of-modern-society-doing-nothing/) - One of the greatest paradoxes of the 21st century is that while we have never had so many technological tools designed to make our lives easier, it has perhaps never been so difficult to truly rest. Silence, idleness and stimulus free downtime are no longer natural states, but increasingly rare social privileges.
- [My Daughter Is Not a Second-Class Citizen](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/06/28/my-daughter-is-not-a-second-class-citizen/) - A mother’s personal testimony about how political rhetoric can become everyday fear — and why changing laws is not enough if the wounds within society remain.
- [Europe’s Carbon Pricing Dilemma](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/06/26/europes-carbon-pricing-dilemma/) - Is the EU ETS Becoming a Competitiveness Trap? The European Union’s climate policy was designed around a clear and ambitious promise: to reduce emissions, accelerate the green transition and place Europe at the forefront of the global low-carbon economy. At the centre of this architecture stands the Emissions Trading System, the EU ETS, often presented as the Union’s flagship market-based climate instrument.
- [Britain at a Crossroads ](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/06/23/britain-at-a-crossroads/) - Economic stagnation, Brexit and political fragmentation have left the United Kingdom searching for a new direction.
- [Beyond the Red Dot: What the iCAUR V23 Award Reveals About China’s Automotive Design Turn](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/06/20/beyond-the-red-dot-what-the-icaur-v23-award-reveals-about-chinas-automotive-design-turn/) - A Design Award as an Industry Signal. A design award rarely changes the fate of a car on its own. It does not automatically make a model successful, turn a brand into a global force, or prove that a manufacturer can compete in Europe, America or the Middle East in the long run. Yet the iCAUR V23 winning the Red Dot Award: Design Concept 2026 means more than a polished marketing line. It is interesting because it points to a broader industrial transformation: Chinese carmaking is gradually moving beyond the era that outsiders long associated with imitation, recycled European and Japanese design cues, and the so-called “copy-paste” logic.
- [Between Two Countries, Within One Family](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/06/19/between-two-countries-within-one-family/) - Life in My Chosen Home. There are decisions in life that, even at the moment we make them, we know will not simply open a new chapter, but will cast everything that came before in a different light. For me, moving to the United Kingdom with my family was one of those decisions.
- [The Myth of “Gender-Changing Preschoolers” and the “Gender Lobby”: What Child Protection Should Really Be About](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/06/17/the-myth-of-gender-changing-preschoolers-and-the-gender-lobby-what-child-protection-should-really-be-about/) - Beyond political slogans, the real question is whether children receive the knowledge, trust and institutional support that can actually keep them safe. While public debate is often dominated by myths about “gender-changing preschoolers” and a vague, threatening “gender lobby”, far too little is said about what truly matters: the actual protection of children. Yet this is not primarily an ideological question. It is a deeply practical one. Are we able to prepare children in a way that helps them stay safe in an increasingly complex world?
- [As Hungary Loses Newspapers, the BBC Returns ](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/06/16/as-hungary-loses-newspapers-the-bbc-returns/) - As the collapsing Orban era gradually shuts down one pro-government media outlet after another, and Hungary edges closer to becoming a country without a single national printed daily newspaper, something new is arriving.
- [The Silent Exodus of Eastern European Social Work](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/06/15/the-silent-exodus-of-eastern-european-social-work/) - Why wage increases alone will not bring social care professionals home. Over the past few years, the idea of returning home has occurred to me more and more often. Not out of nostalgia, and not because of some romantic sense of homesickness. Rather, because I genuinely wanted to believe that one day Hungary might also need the knowledge, professional perspective and practical experience I have gained abroad over the past decade.
- [The Quality of Public Spending Is Declining Across Advanced Economies](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/06/12/the-quality-of-public-spending-is-declining-across-advanced-economies/) - Wealth of Nations Index 2026 finds that most governments now deliver less value for citizens’ money than a decade ago Warsaw / Brussels – A new international ranking delivers an uncomfortable message for governments across the developed world: public sectors are becoming larger and more expensive, but citizens are often receiving less in return. The Wealth of Nations Index 2026, prepared by the Warsaw Enterprise Institute together with 20 partner think tanks from around the world, shows that in 27 out of 40 countries the state delivers less value for public money than it did in 2015. The United States, Norway and Switzerland remain at the top of the ranking, while Romania, Croatia, Greece and Bulgaria stand out as the decade’s most notable climbers.
- [Beyond the Pitch: Why the 2026 FIFA World Cup Could Become a Defining Event of the 21st Century](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/06/11/beyond-the-pitch-why-the-2026-fifa-world-cup-could-become-a-defining-event-of-the-21st-century/) - The World’s Largest Sporting Event Arrives at a Critical Historical Moment. The FIFA World Cup has always been more than football. It is one of the very few events capable of capturing the attention of billions of people simultaneously, transcending borders, languages, religions, and political systems. Yet the 2026 FIFA World Cup, hosted jointly by the United States, Canada, and Mexico, may prove to be significant for reasons that extend far beyond sport.
- [Belgium Holds 16th Place Worldwide as Institutional Fragmentation Limits Public-Service Value](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/06/10/belgium-holds-16th-place-worldwide-as-institutional-fragmentation-limits-public-service-value/) - Wealth of Nations Index 2026. Belgium holds 16th place worldwide in the Wealth of Nations Index 2026, with its overall position unchanged from the previous edition. The result points to a familiar Belgian paradox: a relatively strong private economy is doing more of the work, while the public sector delivers less value than the country’s income level would suggest.
- [REEV: The Powertrain That Could Redefine the Classic Off Roader](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/06/06/reev-the-powertrain-that-could-redefine-the-classic-off-roader/) - Why range extender technology may be the most effective successor to large petrol and diesel engines in real off road vehicles, with the iCAUR V27 showing how this concept can work under extreme conditions.
- [Ebola in Congo Is Not Europe’s Migration Nightmare. It Is a Test of Global Solidarity.](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/06/05/ebola-in-congo-is-not-europes-migration-nightmare-it-is-a-test-of-global-solidarity/) - The Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo does not prove that Europe should fear Africa. It proves something far more important: weakening global health cooperation makes everyone more vulnerable.
- [Hungary’s €2.4 Billion Climate Opportunity](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/06/03/hungarys-e2-4-billion-climate-opportunity/) - Why Central Europe needs a climate-policy architecture that rewards investment rather than absorbs industrial capital. Hungary’s position in the debate over Europe’s Emissions Trading System is more important than its size might suggest.
- [Don’t Just Talk About Them. Talk With Them Too.](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/06/02/dont-just-talk-about-them-talk-with-them-too/) - In debates about the demographic crisis, we too often ask why young people are not having children. We far less often ask them what kind of world they are expected to start a family in.
- [Belgium’s ETS Reform Dividend](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/06/01/belgiums-ets-reform-dividend/) - Why a lower-cost Member State could still gain up to €2.7 billion a year from redesigning Europe’s carbon-pricing architecture

It was not one single reason that led me to move abroad, but a series of events that gradually built on one another until they made my life, and my family’s everyday life, impossible.
- [Range-Extended Electric Vehicles: A Pragmatic Bridge in Europe’s Mobility Transition](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/05/27/range-extended-electric-vehicles-a-pragmatic-bridge-in-europes-mobility-transition/) - Why REEV technology may become one of the most practical architectures for long-range electrified driving Author’s note: This article is a technology and policy analysis. It does not disclose or rely on confidential manufacturing know-how. The iCAUR V27 Golden REEV system is discussed as a contemporary reference point for range-extended electric vehicle architecture, based on publicly communicable product information provided in the source material.

To my surprise, I felt at home almost from the first moment. New Zealand became my chosen country: a place where everyday kindness, public dignity and community solidarity made life feel livable. Yet Hungary remained painfully present through my family, friends and the news I followed from afar.
- [Far from Africa – Close to Budapest](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/05/22/far-from-africa-close-to-budapest/) - I thought that after earlier debates around naturalisation, there was little left that could surprise me about Hungarian citizenship policy. I was wrong.

I had to glance at it twice to ensure we had not returned to the 1950s when Communist Party leaders and commissars made every sports decision. Well, the only real difference is that

Yet the roots of the country’s population decline lie much deeper, in long-term historical, political, and social processes that began decades ago.
- [When a Booth Becomes a Live Media Engine](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/05/07/when-a-booth-becomes-a-live-media-engine/) - My personal impressions from the iCAUR International Business Summit, where journalists, influencers, and dealers from all over the world could experience the same thing I did: this brand did not simply present itself, it drew people in.
- [Rationalising Hungary’s Diplomatic Network Can No Longer Be Postponed](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/05/05/rationalising-hungarys-diplomatic-network-can-no-longer-be-postponed/) - Hungary’s diplomatic network has expanded well beyond what its foreign policy priorities, institutional capacity, and professional standards can reasonably sustain. Any serious reform of the foreign ministry will have to address not only questions of cost, but also the structure, purpose, and staffing logic of its global presence.
- [A Dutch Witness to Hungary’s Democratic Journey](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/05/04/a-dutch-witness-to-hungarys-democratic-journey/) - Simon Wintermans’ life story connects Dutch family legacy, Central European transition, rural Hungary and a warning about the fragility of democracy.

Yet Machinery Guide, a Szeged-based developer of agricultural guidance software and mobile-based control systems, has quietly expanded into more than 20 markets
- [Who Protects the Children?](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/04/29/who-protects-the-children/) - Almost two months ago, I promised to write about my work in the UK. Instead, I was swept up by the long‑awaited political change that finally took place in Hungary. The journey leading up to the night of 12 April was rocky and deeply emotional. It began two years earlier, with a presidential pardon granted by the then head of state, Katalin Novák.
- [The Responsibility of Renewal](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/04/28/the-responsibility-of-renewal/) - It appears that Viktor Orbán may soon withdraw from the front line of politics. It is therefore time for us, too, to reflect on what renewal means for us.

The Golden REEV Classic Journey in Wuhu not only showcased the car’s technical capabilities, but also gave a clear impression of how iCAUR sees the future of range-extended electric mobility.

Based on earlier turnout rates, young people had not seemed interested in politics, yet this time a significant wave of mobilization took place. I found two possible reasons that may explain this shift, and in this article I examine the social, economic, and other conditions that produced this remarkable level of participation, as well as what shaped young people’s new political consciousness.

- [Seeds of Influence: How Hungarian KnowHow Could Reboot EUAfrica Ties](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/04/25/seeds-of-influence-how-hungarian-knowhow-could-reboot-euafrica-ties/) - The current mood of world politics could not be further from the easy optimism that followed the collapse of the communist bloc. The encounters that once felt like a shared opening — cultural crosswinds, new markets, the mobility of people and ideas — have been overtaken by a return to interestdriven diplomacy and defensive trade.
- [In the Global Car Market, Success Increasingly Depends on Adaptation](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/04/22/in-the-global-car-market-success-increasingly-depends-on-adaptation/) - As Chinese carmakers expand beyond their home market, the real test is no longer simply whether they can export vehicles, but whether they can adapt them to local conditions. The iCAUR V27, particularly in its right-hand-drive configuration, illustrates how regional fit, usability, and market-specific expectations are becoming central to global automotive strategy.
- [Wuhu as a Testing Ground](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/04/19/wuhu-as-a-testing-ground/) - The iCAUR 2026 Business Summit is about far more than the unveiling of a new model: it speaks to the global ambitions of China’s auto industry, the growing weight of REEV strategy, and a new language of brand-building.
- [The Red Foundation of Hungarian Cuisine: Ground Paprika](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/04/18/the-red-foundation-of-hungarian-cuisine-ground-paprika/) - If we want to understand the past of Hungarian cuisine and the present that follows from it, it is worth beginning with the ingredient that has perhaps left the deepest mark on it. Ground paprika is not merely a spice: it lives in our language, our moods, and our kitchen instincts as well. One need only think of expressions such as “don’t get all peppered up” or “the atmosphere is quite paprikás.” Few ingredients have become so naturally embedded in everyday Hungarian self-image.
- [“A Successful Opening to the East?”](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/04/17/a-successful-opening-to-the-east/) - The End of Hungary’s “Opening to the East”. For years, Viktor Orbán’s government sold the East as Hungary’s economic future and the West as a fading dependency. But the trade numbers never supported the fantasy and after Tisza’s landslide victory, the political system that sustained it may be starting to collapse as well.
- [The “Cserdi Model”](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/04/15/the-cserdi-model/) - In Central and Eastern Europe, the question of social inclusion has remained a recurring policy challenge for decades. In communities facing structural disadvantage, interventions are often built around external programmes, financial support, and institutional solutions. Less often do initiatives emerge that seek to produce lasting change at the local level by relying on internal resources and community-based agency.
- [No Reconciliation Without Accountability in Hungary](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/04/13/no-reconciliation-without-accountability-in-hungary/) - There can be no meaningful reconciliation in Hungary while Viktor Orbán remains untouched by legal and political accountability.

Power recognitions are not editorial prizes, but customer-experience benchmarks. That is precisely why, for Chinese new energy vehicle brands, they matter not only as domestic prestige markers, but increasingly as tools of international credibility, brand-building, and market entry.
- [The Modern “Attic Sweep”](https://centraleuropeanaffairs.com/2026/04/07/the-modern-attic-sweep/) - Historical vulnerability does not return in the same form, but regulatory uncertainty, fragile trust, and the erosion of long-term predictability can once again become a familiar social experience.

Since then, the state-run structure has produced three loss-making companies, operating costs worth billions of forints, and an investment project that keeps slipping year after year.

But Chery’s latest push shows how Chinese carmakers are trying to turn battery chemistry, manufacturing, safety, and green production into a single competitive system. Author: Szilárd Szélpál Solid-state batteries have been described for years as the electric-vehicle industry’s next great leap. Yet the 2025-2026 literature

In Hungary, however, the gap between legal settlement and the social sense of justice quickly gave way to disillusionment.

European consumers have heard many promises over the past decade: electrification, smart mobility, digital ecosystems, sustainability, premium reinvention. Yet buyers are also looking for something simpler and more concrete. They want to

On the surface, the traditional elements of foreign policy still remain visible: ministerial flights to important and less important destinations around the world, the repeated announcement of

March 15 marks Hungary’s national holiday, followed by Easter at the beginning of April, and, a week later, parliamentary elections. According to the governing party, Fidesz, the latter is also a “celebration of democracy.”

It has been about persistence, improvisation, and identity about carving out freedom on cracked pavements long before skate parks, sponsorships, or institutional recognition existed. To understand where Hungarian skateboarding stands today, one must first understand where it came from: a place defined by scarcity, creativity, and

In Hungary’s, it has become a lifestyle genre. For years, insiders on Budapest’s Bem rakpart have whispered about the increasingly operatic travel requirements of the country’s foreign minister, Péter Szijjártó. Now,

Today, with 134 attachés stationed across 86 countries, the operation costs taxpayers an estimated 20 billion forints annually, a figure

Embassies and consulates do far more than perform protocol duties: they represent economic interests, facilitate strategic information exchange, carry out cultural diplomacy, provide security assessments, and manage crisis situations. Foreign policy can only function with a stable, well-trained, and professional staff.

For Brussels, his return revives a familiar, sometimes frustrating partner. For Central Europe, it raises a deeper question: can pragmatism still hold its ground in an era increasingly defined by populism? Author:

Part of this excitement comes from the fact that 35% of Brussels' population, roughly 400,000 people, are not Belgian citizens. Of these, 220,000 are considered expats—highly qualified, well-paid individuals working for international organizations. In this highly livable city, characterized

A two-time envoy to the European capital and a seasoned legal expert, Baranyai’s career path reflects not only the arc of Hungarian diplomacy, but also the institutional undercurrents shaping the EU’s political core.

Officially, Budapest insists that a stable Africa is indispensable for global peace, yet in practice the driving forces behind its policy are migration control and domestic vote-winning, while genuine political partnership remains largely rhetorical.
