Hungary
26.05.2025 So many countries in the EU and centralized decision makers in the EU are not family friendly, Hungary’s culture and innovation minister Hankó said at the International Family Forum held in Istanbul today. He praised Turkish President Erdogan for his support of the traditional family model. Many policies introduced here in Türkiye were inspired by Hungarian examples, as Hungary is a family-friendly country with a family-friendly government. Our first goal is to protect the traditional family model, he said. Hankó highlighted that LGBTQ propaganda is forbidden in Hungarian schools or for those under 18, adding that the country brought forward debate on the issue with the European Commission. Hungary plans to significantly expand its pro-family policies in the coming year, allocating 5% of its GDP to support families and encourage higher birth rates, Hankó said. Providing financial assistance to families is a central part of Hungary’s strategy to address demographic challenges. Hungary will implement new tax reduction measures, with a key initiative being the exemption of nearly all mothers from paying personal income tax. (Source: Anadolu Agency - Turkey)

26.05.2025 ’There are no longer any range restrictions on weapons supplied to Ukraine. Neither from the British, nor from the French, nor from us, nor from the Americans,’ German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said at the WDR European Forum in Berlin, allowing Kyiv to strike military targets inside Russia. This means that ’Ukraine can now also defend itself, for example by attacking military positions in Russia’, he said. (Source: Anadolu Agency - Turkey)

May 26, 2025 A dual U.S.-German citizen has been arrested on charges that he traveled to Israel and attempted to firebomb the branch office of the U.S. Embassy in Tel Aviv, officials said yesterday. The man, Neumeyer, walked up to the embassy building on May 19 with a backpack containing Molotov cocktails but got into a confrontation with a guard. Law enforcement then tracked Neumeyer down to a hotel a few blocks away from the embassy and arrested him, according to a criminal complaint filed in the Eastern District of New York. Neumeyer, 28, who is originally from Colorado, had traveled from the U.S. to Canada in early February and then arrived in Israel in late April. He had made a series of threatening social media posts before attempting the attack, prosecutors said. Israeli officials deported Neumeyer to New York Saturday and he had an initial court appearance before a federal judge in Brooklyn yesterday, the same day his criminal complaint was unsealed.

May 26, 2025 'I don't know what the hell happened to Putin. I've known him a long time. Always gotten along with him. But he's sending rockets into cities and killing people, and I don't like it at all. We're in the middle of talking and he's shooting rockets into Kyiv and other cities," Trump said. Asked if he was considering more sanctions on Russia, Trump said, 'Absolutely.' Upon returning to Washington, Trump posted more comments on social media, saying of Putin, 'He has gone absolutely CRAZY!' Trump also criticized Zelenskyy, posting that he is 'doing his Country no favors by talking the way he does. Everything out of his mouth causes problems, I don't like it, and it better stop."
