The other day I heard on Klubrádio that someone was analyzing why we don't understand Ukraine, since it is fighting for its territories, which were attacked by the Russian aggressor. It is true that the majority of Russians live in this area, but then why are we complaining about Trianon, since the majority of Romanians lived in Transylvania at that time as well.
Typical left swipe and logic! First of all, Hungary was not an independent country, but part of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, where foreign policy and military matters were primarily decided by the Habsburgs. Although Hungarian Prime Minister István Tisza was the only one in the Crown Council to vote against the war, this vote was not enough, as we have seen. Despite this, the historical homeland was practically liquidated by the international judges, with the effective and damnable cooperation of the Hungarian left. Important: Hungary was armed when the Czechs, Romanians, and Serbs attacked, which is the foundation of the decision of the Wild West. Our 15 intact divisions could have shown serious resistance under a strong political leadership, there was a chance to end the 400-year occupation of the Szent István country. The social demos and the communists faked this, they pacified the army almost by force, and left the country vulnerable. We didn't get help or encouragement from anywhere, the great powers dismembered Hungary.
What is the situation in Ukraine? The Ukrainians received the country in its entirety after the fall of the Soviet empire in 1993, on the condition that, according to the Budapest Treaty, they must give up nuclear weapons and that the country cannot join Western military organizations. It seemed that with this and the creation of further CIS states (Commonwealth of Independent States), the "evil empire" was permanently consigned to the dustbin of history by avoiding the devastating world war. Yes, but whether you like it or not, the CIS remains a Russian-led confederation, of which Ukraine is also a part. Any attempt to break this will provoke resistance from the Great Bear. And the Wild West did not rest on the fact that the status quo of the spheres of interest is taboo, it provoked the war with the usual loosening policy, the Orange Revolution, the disruption known as the import of American democracy, not least by inciting crude nationalism, leaning towards Nazism, and floating the expansion of NATO .
In other words, what is the West doing and what has it done? In the case of Trianon, he encouraged the nationalism of the nationalities in order to dismember the country. He reinforced the removal of the national government, instead he helped the Paris-friendly Red Count Mihály Károlyi to power, who proclaimed the People's Republic, ending the form of government of the kingdom under the protection of the Holy Crown. All this was preceded by significant "civilian" organizing, the sources of which are also to be found in Western banks.
What are they doing now and recently in Ukraine. They incite nationalism, which in some places turns into Nazism against the Russian, Hungarian and other nationalities, they pursue a policy of relaxation, they deliver weapons with which the Zelenskyi regime can drag out the war at the cost of hellish suffering. This will ultimately achieve the dismemberment of Ukraine, unless this is precisely the goal: to place the western part of the country under American and NATO influence. (Of course, the whole thing would obviously be better!)
Let's remember that the Russians wanted to come to an agreement, the Minsk Agreement was created, in which the Ukrainians promised the nationalities broad autonomy. This agreement was not kept, they and their American-European supporters used the time that had passed to strengthen their positions.
If you really want a Trianon parallel, dear left-wing colleagues, then this is the case. The expansion of the Wild West brought world wars, the mutilation of countries, and a period of permanent strife.
We hope that III. it will not unleash a world war on us, although it is certain that that fight will be the final one.
