Speaking to a local television channel, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said that many people were surprised when US President-elect Donald Trump won the elections, but that he had definitely predicted this.
Emphasizing that this is because people in the US and Europe are tired of war, immigration, rising crime rates, terrorism and gender issues, Orban said that for this reason, he logically concluded that Trump would return.
Emphasizing that Trump’s coming to power could bring peace and expand economic opportunities, Orban stated that in this way, Hungary’s interests would be aligned with those of the US in many areas.
EMPHASIZING A BROTHER-IN-ARMS
Emphasizing that Trump should not be seen as a “savior” but as a “comrade-in-arms” who supports similar goals, Orban said, “It is up to us, the Hungarian government, to fight for Hungary’s interests.”
