In a high-profile meeting, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban engaged in discussions with U.S. president-elect Donald Trump and tech magnate Elon Musk at Mar-a-Lago.
Announcing the meeting on social media, Orban described it as a significant step towards shaping the future. The meeting comes after previous discussions in July, where Orban emphasized the need for peace and a ceasefire in Ukraine. As a staunch Trump supporter, Orban's policies and ties with Russia have often isolated him within the European Union, drawing criticism for his opposition to aiding Ukraine militarily.
Championing Trump as a peacemaker, Orban hopes his rapport with the president-elect will strengthen his position in a divided Europe and galvanize support for his far-right allies during turbulent political times. Despite the meeting's significance, Trump's transition team remained silent on the discussions. (With inputs from agencies.
