Brad Patty, The Post Millennial: Joe Biden is dead wrong on Hungary and Poland 

Presidential candidate Joe Biden raised hackles among our allies last week. He told the ABC town hall audience “You see what’s happened in everything from Belarus to Poland to Hungary, and the rise of totalitarian regimes in the world.” He went on to turn this into a campaign plank, but our allies in Eastern Europe were understandably upset. 

Hungary, for example, is close to joining only seven NATO countries that meet their defense budget obligations to the alliance.

He's always played second fiddle and it shows.
