NEW YORK (AP) — Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán will visit former President Donald Trump next week at his Florida home Mar-a-Lago, according to a person briefed on the plans.
The meeting comes as Trump seeks to turn his attention to his looming election rematch with President Joe Biden. Trump’s political standing within his own party seems stronger than ever, having easily won the early presidential Republican primary contests and flexed his influence over GOP members in Congress and the leadership of his political party.
The person briefed on the plans was not authorized to disclose them publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.
Orbán and Trump have been long allies and Trump regularly praises the right-wing populist in his campaign speeches.
Viktor Orban is Donald Trump‘s kind of guy!
During his uninterrupted stay in power, Orbán has curtailed press freedom, weakened judicial independence, and undermined multiparty democracy, amounting to democratic backsliding during Orbán's tenure.
