The eventual return of Donald Trump to power in USA after the elections next November is a necessary condition to end the war in Ukraineassured this Friday the prime minister of Hungarythe ultranationalist Viktor Orbánin the «Antalya Forum», south of Türkiye.
“If Trump had been the president of the United States at the time of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, there would be no war now”Orbán assured before the Forum, which is being held until Sunday in the Mediterranean province of Antalya.
«The only serious chance now is for him to come back and make peace. It’s my only hope. If not, the war between Ukraine and Russia will be long, will get closer and closer to Hungary, and will create strong dilemmas for European politics. Trump’s return is a precondition for a quick peace on the European continent.he insisted.
Interviewed before a large audience by an Australian journalist, Orbán confirmed that next week he will meet Trump in Floridawhere he will talk with him about the war in Ukraine and how to stop it if the Republican wins the elections in November.
He clarified that it would be “a lack of respect” to ask for a vote for a candidate, but “from a Hungarian and peace point of view, a return of Trump would be more than desirable.”
Orbán, who spoke in English, added that Trump would also have been able to avoid an escalation in the war in Gazabecause “without the United States it is impossible to make peace in the Middle East.”
The Magyar president assured that his priority, when he assumes the rotating presidency of the EU in July, would be enlargement, but not so much towards Ukraine “which is something recent”, as in the Balkans.
“We belong to the opposition in the European Union,” Orbán recalled, lamenting that an ideology currently prevails “where God is outside of politics, national pride is something suspect, and the family no longer exists.”
On the other hand, he anticipated a “stronger representation of the right” after the European elections in June, with a change “towards more conservative values.”
“This at least is my hope and I work for that, I try to play a role to unify the right and center-right and sweep away socialists, leftists, progressives, liberals, those dangerous guys”he added.
Orbán also reiterated his emphatic opposition to immigration, which he described as “bad” in all cases, associating it with crime and chaos, and praised Turkey for having “saved the continent twice” by assuming agreements to stop the flow of migrants. towards Europe. EFE (I)
