Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban held a meeting with former US President Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida Friday. According to Bertalan Havasi, spokesman for the head of government, they spoke for an hour.
They were accompanied by their closest staff members, the spokesman said. Hungarian Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó, among others, also accompanied the Prime Minister to Florida.
"After the meeting, the program continued with a joint dinner and concert," Havasi was quoted as saying by the MTI news agency.
The spokesman did not disclose which topics Orban and Trump discussed, but before the trip to the US Hungarian officials said they would discuss the situation in Ukraine and the relations between the US and Hungary.
The Hungarian government has made no secret of its desire for Trump to win the November election and return to the White House. It associates with the former US president hopes for the resolution of the Ukrainian conflict and the improvement of bilateral relations.
During this trip to the United States Orban visited Washington, D.C. on March 7, where he delivered a speech at conservative think tank the Heritage Foundation. A meeting with US President Joe Biden was not on his program; Orban came to the US not at Biden’s invitation but to meet his political opponent and likely rival in the November elections once again. Experts consider the situation almost unprecedented for a NATO ally.
This was Orban's third meeting with Trump, who once hosted the Hungarian prime minister at the White House. The Hungarian PM has never met Biden in person since he took office in January 2021, and relations between the two are considered strained.

I’m sure the DOJ (show me the man, we’ll show you the crime) is readying the charges to be filed against Trump over this meeting.
Lefty knickers in a twist.
Ha ha...he ignored Biden and looked forward to his meeting with President Trump.
Globohomo is not amused.
Globohomos are just a bunch of overgrown crybabies.
They’re always upset about something, lefties.
Buggery of 10 year old boy in Austria is cultural enrichment.
In Hungary that’s another matter; Hungary has rednecks, if you get my drift.
(My daughters have Hungarian citizenship so I have a dawg in the hunt)
And in the Sharia states buggery of 10 year old boy is a cultural ENTITLEMENT.
My grandfather’s home village is pretty cheap. It’s tempting these days.
Well, the lefties have their drawbacks, but at least they have a candidate who electrified
Americans w/ his SOTU stump speech and is now a “trusted beacon of Democrat leadership.”
snx
Hungary, Hungary, Hungary.
You could get LiMu Emu (and Doug) to sing that!
Have to give Orban credit. The EU and NATO will not be pleased with him for doing this. Maybe they discussed how to end this Ukrainian quagmire.
