Viktor Orban Endorses Trump As “The Man Of Peace”

Politico reports:

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.

Orbán, who is widely distrusted by fellow European leaders for his pro-Russian views and autocratic tendencies, praised Trump in generous terms as a “self-made man” who has a “different approach to everything.” “I believe that will be good for the world politics,” Orbán said, adding of Trump: “He is the man of peace. Under his four-year term he did not initiate a single war, and he did a lot in order to create peace in old conflicts in very complicated areas of the world.”
