Hungary’s Cautionary Tale: How Autocrats Broke Democracy
Viktor Orbán has become an icon to far-right Christian nationalists around the world. How did this onetime radical firebrand become one of Vladimir Putin's staunchest allies -- referred to by some as a "Trojan horse for Russia?" Do Orbán and his majority Fidesz party serve the best interests and desires of the people? Or is he the godfather of a criminal organization built on conspiracy theories about the European Union, immigrants, the LGBTQ+ community, George Soros and others?

To explore these questions and more, CITIZENARTS is honored to present a dynamic podcast discussion with Borbala Kriza, Bálint Magyar and Zsuzsanna Szelényi in Hungary’s Cautionary Tale: How Autocrats Broke Democracy.
