By Stefan J. Bos, Chief International Correspondent reporting from Budapest, Hungary

BUDAPEST (Worthy News) – Hungary’s prime minister says European Union leaders “have taken a big step towards a solution acceptable to all EU member states regarding the war in Ukraine.”

Viktor Orbán spoke Thursday on the sidelines of Hungary’s largest diplomatic gathering on record, bringing together some 47 heads of state and governments as well as other leaders in Budapest’s giant Puskás Aréna stadium.

Orbán stressed the “importance of a ceasefire as a first step” to ending Europe’s largest armed conflict since the Second World War.

He hopes that with Donald J. Trump soon, the White House peace forces in Europe could become a majority.

Brussels has condemned Orbán for visiting Russian President Vladimir Putin while Hungary holds the rotating EU presidency.

The prime minister, viewed as Putin’s closest ally within the EU, has denied using Hungary’s EU presidency to negotiate with Moscow.

Orbán, who several EU leaders have condemned for his perceived authoritarian style, urged more cooperation.

FOERCEST CRITICS

He faced his fiercest critics, including the EU’s European Council President Charles Michel and Ursula von der Leyen, the president of the European Commission, who also came to Budapest clearly uncomfortable shaking hands with him.

NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte, the former Orbán-condemning Dutch prime minister, was also in Hungary, as many European nations are members of the military club.

In his speech opening the summit, Orbán made clear that whatever their differences, they should all realize that “Europe is in a difficult, complicated and dangerous situation because of the Russian-Ukrainian war.”

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was among those listening to Orbán, who refused to provide weapons to Ukraine. Zelenskyy indirectly questioned Orbán’s close ties with Putin.

At a separate press conference in Budapest, Zelenskyy said that those who “want Putin or want a ceasefire have never waged a war against him.”

Yet Zelenskyy acknowledged that during his recent visit to Kyiv, Orbán agreed to start “with a clean slate” with him.

And he thanked Hungary “for the great humanitarian support to Ukrainian refugees.”

NATO MEMBERSHIP

However, neither country has yet signed a bilateral agreement, as Hungary would stop Kyiv’s membership in the NATO military alliance. Hungary, a NATO member, could veto Kyiv’s entry.

Orbán, who also has close relations with Israel’s prime minister, warned leaders attending the summit that besides Ukraine, there looms “a threat of escalation in the Middle East.”

Additionally, he said that “conflicts in North Africa cause illegal migration that is once again approaching its peak in Europe.”

Orbán expressed concern that the global economy is heading “on fragmentation and blockages.”

Yet viewers may be forgiven for wondering whether relations have improved between Orbán and Zelenskyy: Hungarian state-run television and the prime minister’s live broadcast on his Facebook platform were cut off when the Ukrainian president started speaking.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
