The Hungarian billionaire has always supported “progressive and liberal causes” to a significant extent.
As it is known, Joe Biden announced on Sunday that he will not run for president in November against Donald Trump. In response to this news, Alex Soros also commemorated Biden’s presidency on his social media.
However, the heir of the Soros empire did not hesitate for long and quickly joined the supporters of Biden’s vice president, Kamala Harris.
“It’s time for all of us to rally around Kamala Harris and defeat Donald Trump. She is our best and most qualified candidate. Long live the American dream!” – Alex Soros wrote in his post.
The Jerusalem Post also pointed out that not only Alex Soros, but also his father fully supports Harris. The newspaper emphasized that their support is likely to be a source of new debates, as it strongly borders on the limits of political influence.
The Wall Street Journal reported on George Soros’s support, citing the spokesperson of the Hungarian-born businessman. As it is known, the Soros-affiliated Open Society Foundations have always supported “progressive and liberal causes”. The Jerusalem Post also recalled that the billionaire’s political influence is often criticized, especially by American conservative groups. His substantial donations to political campaigns and organizations have led to accusations of undue influence on political processes.
Soros’ activities faced fierce opposition in Hungary and Poland
In Hungary and Poland, his efforts to promote open societies have encountered significant resistance from national governments, which have accused him of undermining their sovereignty.
The portal also emphasized that Alex Soros continues his father’s “philanthropic legacy”, focusing on issues such as human rights, social justice, and environmental sustainability. Although it seems that his political and social activism receives less criticism for now – the Jerusalem Post wrote.
