Government to unveil new budget with Von der Leyen as school protests and diplomatic strains rise
The Hungarian government plans to present a new budget together with European Commission President Von der Leyen, while bomb-tax protests erupt in schools across Hungary and other European nations.
A budget rollout will be marked by a joint appearance with Von der Leyen. Meanwhile, numerous schools in Hungary and several across Europe have staged bomb-tax strikes. President Putin is set to discuss matters with Donald Trump and Xi Jinping, deliberately leaving Ukraine out of the agenda. Tensions are also mounting in France, and President Macron will not travel to Budapest as previously expected.
Why it matters
The budget launch, widespread school protests, and shifting diplomatic talks signal political and social turbulence in Europe.
