- Viktor Orbán's 16 years in power is over, defeated by Péter Magyar, a 45-year-old former party insider who convinced a majority of Hungarians to bring it to an end. So what does this mean for Hungary’s relationship with Russia going forward? Under Orbán, Hungary was the strongest pro-Kremlin voice in the EU. This election result has repudiated the “Putinization of global politics” and leaves Vladimir Putin without a powerful ally in the EU.

- Hungarian opposition leader Peter Magyar is set to form the next government in Budapest after incumbent Prime Minister Viktor Orban conceded defeat in an historic election.
Early official results showed his Tisza party leading across the country. Orban described the result as "painful" and confirmed he had congratulated his rival.
The outcome could reshape Hungary's relationship with the European Union and NATO, and has major implications for Ukraine, where Orban had repeatedly blocked EU support. His defeat also sends shockwaves through right-wing political movements globally, including allies of US President Donald Trump and Russia's Vladimir Putin.
Magyar campaigned on tackling corruption and restoring democratic institutions, while promising to repair ties with European partners.

- Trump vows Hormuz blockade — can the US Navy actually enforce it? | DW News
- Date posted
- 2 days ago
- Description
- US President Donald Trump says the US Navy will blockade the Strait of Hormuz — stopping ships that have paid Iran for passage.
The announcement comes after failed peace talks with Tehran, and raises urgent questions about whether such a move is even feasible.
The Strait of Hormuz is one of the world’s most critical shipping routes, carrying around a fifth of global oil supplies.
But enforcing a blockade in such a narrow and heavily trafficked waterway would be a major military operation — and could risk direct confrontation with Iran.
In this DW News analysis, we examine:
What a US naval blockade of Hormuz would involve
Whether the US has the forces to enforce it
How Iran could respond using asymmetric tactics
And whether this risks escalation into open conflict

- US President Donald Trump says the US Navy will block all ships entering or leaving the Strait of Hormuz, marking a major escalation after Iran peace talks in Pakistan ended without a deal.
The announcement comes just hours after negotiations in Islamabad failed to produce an agreement between Washington and Tehran, raising fresh concerns about the future of the ceasefire and the risk of renewed conflict.
US Vice President JD Vance said Iran refused to commit to abandoning its nuclear ambitions — a key US demand — while Iran’s foreign ministry signaled that talks could continue despite the deadlock.
Pakistan, which hosted the negotiations, urged both sides to maintain the fragile ceasefire set to expire on April 22.
Reactions inside Iran point to deep mistrust toward Washington, highlighting the challenges facing any diplomatic breakthrough.

- Description
- Peace talks between the United States and Iran are underway in Pakistan. According to Iranian state TV, two rounds of talks have taken place, with a third expected tonight or Sunday.
The White House has confirmed that the two sides, along with their Pakistani hosts, are meeting face-to-face in Islamabad. They aim to convert a two-week ceasefire into a more durable peace agreement.
This comes as the US military says two of its warships have passed through the Strait of Hormuz. Three supertankers — two of them Chinese-flagged — appear to have been the first oil-carrying ships to leave the Persian Gulf since the ceasefire began on Wednesday.

- A global scam industry is flourishing in Cambodia. Billions of dollars are lost to scammers, some of whom are victims themselves. A Report by Georg Matthes
Everyone will have encountered scamming before: A message from an unknown person, a little bit suspicious, but also charming and promising.
What might seem harmless is actually a billion-dollar business.
In Cambodia, the government is now cracking down on scam centers that basically operate like a mafia and run large-scale scams in huge halls or factories.
Most of the scammers are recruited from abroad, like Indonesia. They claim to have been forced to work there, and that they themselves are victims, with some even claiming to have been tortured. In some cases, however, even the embassies from their native countries are skeptical whether this is true. Instead, they believe that many scammers join the teams voluntarily.
For this report, we spoke with Jason Tower, Senior E...

- The world followed their journey through space for ten days – and now the crew of NASA’s Artemis II are back on earth. The mission ended with a dramatic plunge through the atmosphere – which lasted nearly 15 minutes and reached speeds of over 30 times the speed of sound. The Orion capsule’s much-scrutinized heat shield held up and all four astronauts splashed into the Pacific Ocean in ‘green,’ or healthy, condition.
