How does Orbán's recent speech connect to broader trends in Hungarian politics and his past pronouncements on illiberal democracy?

Orbán's speech reflects a hardening stance against critics, whom he brands as "traitors" and agents of foreign interests, particularly targeting journalists and NGOs. He plans to create legal frameworks to counter their influence, with media outlets suggesting potential measures like expulsion or citizenship revocation. This escalation coincides with the release of a documentary exposing the wealth of Orbán's inner circle, viewed by millions.
