Well, Kossuth could dream in his desperate situation about anything. However, he did not think about a Confederacy of a Trianon created Hungary and the Small entente. This is one great weakness of this thinking. Tisza at the Berlin conference worked for the reassurance treaty to keep peace by balancing out the three empires and to keep the Slavic influence outside of Hungary. This treaty ended when the British managed to get the alliance of the French following the railroad building plans of Germans in what it is
Iraq today. The czar lost his empire as the result of following the panslavic agenda instead of peace in Central Europe. Putin wants to get Germany out from the western influence by walking the same lines as his predecessors have at the Berlin conference, however, he is not the czar of
Russia and cannot be regarded as such. Clinton wanted to unite the Balkans and to counter balance the European Union. The problem is that Hungary following the disregarded Padua Armistice, and WW.II remained dismembered and weak. Following the early nineties the Hungarian economy was not given a change to get on the right track and the cold war originated incredibly large debt wrecked the economy. Hungary again, lost valuable time. So I am remaining skeptical and I will be asking questions about any alliances, for the homework was not done. The way out is to get the remaining country strong enough so it would have the weight. But and I have to repeat this, we have lost an incredibly valuable 13 years and nothing happened in the right direction. Before 1848/49, Szechenyi worked for two decades to bring into the country strength. Following 1989 this was not the case. Kossuth in the USA received many promises and all has fallen apart when the Russian fleet
blocked the British and the British could not influence the outcome of the Civil War. So Kossuth faded away. Politics and different plans will never bring the desirable outcome, if we do not have the means behind it. Serbia, although week now, a nationalistic Rumania and the Benes Decrees based Slovakia are a trouble. The results of a headless western politics – the endless problems between the western powers – will be here to stay, unless they are willing to clean up the mess they have created in the first place.
Even then the commitment must be there that they will keep the Putin influence away from the region. In Germany the only ally could be the Stoiber lead forces. But he is not helped. Germany has no desire to be involved in geopolitical games and has no desire for war and we should understand that. Still, we should place down our list of interests in time.
