While most other Western leaders are the blind leading the blind, Orbán focuses on the future with unmatched clarity.
Not since Richard Nixon has the West has the West had a national political leader who thinks about geostrategy as profoundly as Hungary’s Viktor Orbán. Love him or hate him, the man is profound. His long speech at July’s Tusványos meeting in Romania marks Orbán out as a true visionary, one whose reach transcends the limits of the moment, and ranges far beyond the borders of his small Central European nation. It is, in fact, a very Orbánist point that what makes him such a compelling civilizational thinker is that he is so deeply rooted in Hungarian soil, and the lessons it teaches about human nature.
