Hungary, with a population of less than ten million, has been turned into a significant international player by its Prime Minister Viktor Orbán. This achievement is highlighted by upcoming events like the major gathering of the "Patriots of the World" in Budapest, which aligns with the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) Hungary. This event attracts a lineup of influential figures in the international sovereignist movement, signifying Hungary's growing influence in global discussions.

The gathering this weekend is seen as a crucial moment for like-minded leaders, reflecting the unity among sovereignists despite various global tensions, including the looming threat of conflict involving Iran. Participants will include prominent figures from across the globe, and while there is uncertainty regarding American Vice President J.D. Vance’s attendance, former President Donald Trump is expected to engage with attendees through a video address, bolstering the event's prominence.

This mobilization of the international right signals Hungary's strategic American alliances, shifting its political landscape and enhancing Orbán’s vision of national sovereignty. The implications of such gatherings extend beyond Hungarian borders, as they cultivate a network of support for right-wing populism and nationalistic policies across Europe, showcasing Orbán’s ambitions to influence global right-wing discourse.
