Mercedes Schlapp sits down with Director General for the Center of Human Rights and CPAC Hungary organizer, Miklos Szantho, at CPAC DC 2023 on this episode of America Uncanceled.

CPAC has expanded to a broad international footprint in recent years. Hungary is the newest member of the international CPAC family. The first CPAC Hungary was held last year and the second event is coming up in May.

Hungary and its Prime Minister, Viktor Orban, who spoke at CPAC Texas 2022, is leading Europe and even the world in effective conservative governing. Szantho boasts that Hungary has seen increased marriage and birth rates thanks to policies that incentivize stable family dynamics without any alterations to abortion laws.

“Thanks to this idea of welfare society and the very generous family allowances via the taxation system for the families, the number of marriages doubled compared to a situation what he had ten years ago," Szantho stated on the benefits of the family-friendly society Hungary has strived to create.

Hungary has encountered enemies to their progress, however, in European Union bureaucrats in Brussels. Szantho calls Brussels Europe’s version of the deep state, in which, unelected bureaucrats are making broad policy decisions and consolidating power away from individual countries and into the central governing body of the European Union.

Szantho explains, “You do have your own deep state here in D.C. We do have our own deep state in Brussels. We are trying to fight for our sovereignty, the member states’ rights, the member states’ sovereignty, against Brussels, against the European Union.” He continues, “They are trying to absorb power from member states and that is the fight we are fighting on a daily basis.”

Hungary is proud to be leading this fight and to stand as a shining city on a hill for the rest of the world. CPAC is likewise proud to partner with such an exemplary conservative nation and honored to return there next month for the second CPAC Hungary. CPAC Hungary is taking place May 4-5 in Budapest.
