The rumours are saying that Vladimir Putin, the President of Russia and Matteo Salvini, former interior minister might be coming to Budapest to a large international martial arts competition.

According to Mandiner, the World Judo Championships Seniors Hungary 2021, which is the final competition of the Olympic qualification series, drew the matches on Saturday and a total of 665 competitors have started the renowned competition from 118 countries on Sunday in Budapest.

According to the data of the Hungarian Judo Association, there are a total of three Olympic and sixteen World Champions among the martial artists, so the Hungarian competitors have a difficult contest ahead of them.

According to Magyar Nemzet, Vladimir Putin, who had already attended the World Judo Championships in Hungary back in 2017 in the László Papp Budapest Sportaréna was invited by none other than the President of the International Judo Federation, Marius L. Vizer who was recently re-elected in his position before the championships in the congress held in Budapest.

The invitation was confirmed by Dmitr Peskov, the spokesman of Kremlin, but he did not say whether Putin would visit the event.

On another note, the Russian President is highly likely to visit the competition as he is not only a martial arts enthusiast, but also a martial artist himself.
