(Finance) – The Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban meets former US President Donald Trump: the appointment is scheduled for today at Mar-a-Lago, Floridaat the tycoon’s luxurious residence. The preview comes from the New York Times, which cites a Trump campaign official and a person informed of the matter close to the former president.
The meeting, scheduled after the NATO summit in Washingtonfollows the disputed “peace mission” that Orban attempted passing through Kiev, Moscow and Beijing in recent days. A trip that was not seen favorably in European circles, because it was not compatible with the duties of the rotating presidency of the EU.
It must be said that Donald Trump has always been a supporter of Orban and the Hungarian leader has also always publicly supported Trump’s re-election. The two even met in Florida last March.
“Viktor Orban is the prime minister of Hungary and he does what he thinks is best. It’s not that we decide what he has to do.“, commented the Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani on the sidelines of the NATO summit, specifying “of course he doesn’t go to represent the European Union”.
“We must not interfere in the American election campaign,” the head of the Farnesina stressed. “Transatlantic relations are one of the guiding stars of our foreign policy. We are friends and allies of the United States, regardless of who was, is and will be the American president.”
