The Hungarian Prime Minister met Italian counterpart Giorgia Meloni in Rome on Tuesday,
where they discussed, the Russian-Ukrainian war and Hungary’s EU presidency program. On Friday last week, the Hungarian Prime Minister held talks with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz in Berlin on European affairs and German-Hungarian bilateral relations.
In a related development, the Hungarian Prime Minister has also scheduled a meeting with French conservative politician Marine Le Pen during his visit to Paris.
This meeting highlights Viktor Orbán’s ongoing efforts to strengthen ties with key political figures across Europe as he prepares for Hungary’s EU presidency. These discussions with European leaders come at a critical time as Hungary gears up to take on the rotating presidency of the EU Council, facing significant challenges such as the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and the broader implications for EU policy and relations.
