Speaking at the opening of a Hoover Institution panel- China on the Eve of the Winter Olympics: Hard Choices for the World’s Democracies- at Stanford University, Hungarian-born billionaire George Soros talked about the challenges of 2022, especially in China, but also in Hungary, CNN reports. According to Soros, Hungarians “could oust an authoritarian leader” in April if they vote against Orbán. The Orbán-led government has been campaigning against George Soros for years. According to them, the billionaire is fighting against Europe’s Christian roots, including by resettling migrants on the continent.

In his speech, Soros said, among other things, that he believed China was trying to use the Beijing Winter Olympics, which begins this week, as a propaganda victory, just as the Nazis did in Berlin in 1936. After all, China could be facing an economic crisis after the great boom, stressed the businessman.
After last year’s elections in Germany, he said, there are important elections coming up this year in France and Hungary. Regarding Hungary, he said that on April 3rd, “Hungarian voters could, against all odds, take power away from an authoritarian ruler.” Together with Putin’s decision whether to invade Ukraine, these elections could affect the future of Europe, Soros said.
