Balázs Trencsényi has been interviewed by numerous Hungarian-language,[14][15][16] German-language,[17][18][19] Czech-language,[20] Ukrainian-language,[21][22] and English-language outlets.[23] Trencsényi views the Orban regime as similar to Horthy system and the Kádár system in that it also managed to win over a "silent majority".[24] Orban's "attack on CEU weaves together a complex web of antiliberal and neo-authoritarian political forces and ideological streams."[25] He is also critical of the technocratic considerations in the European project, which made "people feel overconfident, and neglect their duties, which are actually transnational duties."[26]

He is a co-organizer of the Invisible University for Ukraine.[27][28]
