Czechia/Hungary – Former Czech Prime Minister and President Václav Klaus has sent a letter to his friend Viktor Orbán to warmly congratulate him on his fourth consecutive electoral victory.
“A victory in the contemporary fight over the future of the Western world”
“Let me express my congratulations on your persuasive victory in yesterday’s elections. Not only my congratulations, but my great joy as well.
It’s not only an election victory, it is a victory – regretfully not a final one – in the contemporary fight over the future of the Western world.
It is a victory of yours, a victory of your nation and country, a victory of all of us.
“This victory will make it possible for you to speak more loudly in Europe”
I am convinced that this victory will make it possible for you to speak more loudly in Europe, which is something Europe (meaning the EU) needs now more than ever before.
Your victory is also essential for Central and Eastern Europe, where the recent progressivist offensive in some countries undermines the much needed Visegrad Group cooperation.
“A victory which is essential for Central and Eastern Europe”
Last but not least, your voice of reason is of great importance in the current European debate about the war in Ukraine.
Dear Mr. Prime Minister, once again, please accept my sincere congratulations.
I look forward to coming to Budapest in the middle of May to attend the postponed Conservative conference. It will be great to get a chance to meet you. It will be great to have the opportunity to meet you.

Interesting to see Klaus supporting Orbán so openly. What do you think this means for Czech-Hungarian relations? 🤔
Why is Klaus so enthusiastic about Orbán’s victory? Does he share the same political views?
Congrats to Orbán! But what does this mean for democracy in Hungary?
Is it just me, or is Klaus a little too excited about this? 😂
Could this alliance between Klaus and Orbán signal a shift in European politics?
Yay for Orbán! Looking forward to seeing more of his policies in action. 🇭🇺
Great to see leaders supporting each other, but I hope this doesn’t mean more division in the EU.
Klaus seems to think Orbán’s win is a victory for everyone. Do you agree?
Why is there such a strong focus on Hungary’s election in Czech politics?
Do you think Klaus attending the Conservative conference will have any major impact?
