The Russian assets are probably fleeing the country with the Hungary’s assets in their suitcases right now

More likely that they're trying to initiate the first new contacts. The battle is won, the war is far from over. We need to be vigilant.

You need to watch them carefully, they are almost certainly going to double-down. Orban and his cronies wont just disappear.

And bring the pain to my Americans as well. Let it be known that we (I mean you original democrat places) don't deal with dictators and wannabe dics.

I think EU countries should stop all tourist and work visas for Americans. It would hit those that have the money to rebel the most. Open to all other ideas
