Russia expels Hungarian diplomats amid Budapest's shift away from Orbán era

Original: Russia expels Hungarian diplomats as Budapest breaks with Orbán era

Russia has expelled Hungarian diplomats, a move reported by Euronews as coinciding with a political shift in Budapest away from the long-standing Orbán era. The expulsion marks a notable deterioration in ties between Moscow and a government that has often positioned itself as Kremlin-friendly within the EU. Details on the number of diplomats or stated reasons were not immediately available.

Why now: A Kremlin-linked rift with Hungary's traditionally pro-Moscow government is a striking diplomatic development.
