Returning to the Carnegie Politika Podcast, Balázs Jarábik joined host Alex Gabuev alongside Maksim Samorukov to unpack Hungary’s historic elections and what comes after Viktor Orbán, as well as the implications of Rumen Radev’s role for Bulgaria’s trajectory.
The discussion explores what these political shifts signal for Russia and, more importantly, how the label “pro-Russian” is evolving in today’s European politics, moving beyond simple alignment toward more complex, interest-driven positioning.
