Victor Orban: Trump is a 'Man of Peace'

Prime Minister Viktor Orbán of Hungary effectively endorsed Donald Trump for president in an interview and, on the eve of this week’s NATO summit, blasted the United States for having a “war policy” in Ukraine rather than a strategy for achieving peace.

Orbán contrasted U.S. policy unfavorably with what he described as a credible “peace plan” from China. The Hungarian leader met recently with Vladimir Putin and defended his outreach to the Russian autocrat as a practical necessity during the war.

Orbán’s comments came in an interview Sunday with Axel Springer media outlets. POLITICO is owned by Axel Springer.

In the interview, Orbán commented extensively on Trump and U.S. politics, predicting there was a “very, very high chance” that President Joe Biden would not be reelected and describing that as a positive outcome.
