The legislation aimed against CEU is being opposed around the world. I signed this letter, although my name is not on the list for some reason. The APSA has put out a statement, as has the ASN. Other folks are also making statements. However, I am not optimistic as Orban has a majority in his legislature, and having the world arrayed against him is probably a bonus for him. Justifies his autocracy, his fear-mongering. The real threat to Hungary is the EU, but it is hard for that institution to sanction members. My friends who understand the EU can explain better than I can, but neither NATO nor the EU were built in ways to punish members. Conditionality--setting conditions for good behavior--only applies to applicants, if at all. So, while I have not given up all hope, I will keep an eye out for jobs for my friends who work there, because, I am afraid, they are going to need them.
