BREAKING – Confirmed: PM Orbán meets Putin in Moscow on Friday!
PM Viktor Orbán was in Moscow in September 2022, attending the funeral of Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev. A Hungarian investigative journalist and several media outlets learnt from independent sources that the prime minister will travel again to Moscow to meet Putin.
PM Orbán travels to Moscow on Friday
This comes after an Orbán-Zelensky summit in Kyiv this week. The two leaders settled the conflicting issues between the two countries, based on the official communiqué, including even the state of the Transcarpathian Hungarians. However, Zelensky rejected Orbán’s ceasefire plan, saying that a ceasefire would only allow the Russians to gather new forces and continue their attack in the future.
Orbán now plans to travel to Moscow tomorrow to meet President Putin. The first one writing about the visit was Szabolcs Panyi, a Hungarian investigative journalist this afternoon. VSquare and Direkt 36 confirmed that information with the help of independent Central European sources. Based on their information, FM Szijjártó will accompany the prime minister on his journey. Szijjártó talked on the phone while Orbán negotiated with President Zelensky this week.
Press chief Bertalan Havasi or other government officials did not confirm reports of the visit, but some European leaders find it a bad idea.
EU leaders shocked
President of the European Council Charles Michel said on X (Twitter) that the EU’s rotating presidency “has no mandate to engage with Russia on behalf of the EU.” He added that the European Council’s standpoint concerning the issue was clear: “Russia is the aggressor, Ukraine is the victim. No discussions about Ukraine can take place without Ukraine.”

The European Council is clear: Russia is the aggressor, Ukraine is the victim. No discussions about Ukraine can take place without Ukraine.

Mr Michel was not the only one posting on Twitter following the news about the journey. Donald Tusk, Poland’s prime minister, wrote only one question: “The rumours about your visit to Moscow cannot be true @PM_ViktorOrban, or can they?”

According to Radio Free Europe (RFE), an anonymous EU official said Orbán did not inform the EU about his planned trip to Moscow. The visit was confirmed by a Hungarian government source to the RFE.

With great power comes great responsibility. Hungary, is holding the EU presidency, hopefully this narcissist will not messed up the thing even more
Good. No harm can come from talking, whether to friend or foe. All trouble starts when there’s no conversation.
Simple because it’s in the name – Victor M. Orban, a CV that grows in Political Controversy, his adapted and “un-removed ” position in wanting to “re-structure” or “re-focus” the entire structure of the European Union, of which same could be said of N.A.T.O. – wanting CHANGE.
Victor M. Orban – holds the place of Prime Minister of a Country, that experts of Eminence and Distinction – are of number, believing he has SCUTTLED the country of Hungary, splintered it, fragmented it, and that continues through Orban to see – bear witness to the DISSATATION of Democracy,
Victor M. Orban – through his Political Philosophies and Ideology, which continue to be of proven FACT, the longer he stays – Prime Minister of Hungary, in the Political “Arena” of Europe especially in country’s Globally and throughout Europe that are GOVERNED under DEMOCRACY – he is – has been WRONGFULLY in pursuit, through an “ego” rather than intellectual ability, playing the WRONG game, and rightfully occupies the “Sin Bin” – of no friendships, nor respect – from ALL humans & GLOBALLY countries that are DEMOCRACY’s.
The names – Orban & Varga, that have JOINTLY – Mihaly Varga, being a “founding” member of the Fidesz Political Party, that has occupied the “place” as the Minister of Finance of the Orban – Fidesz Government of Hungary, for (11) plus “tumultuous” years, their cataclysmic FAILURES in their Economic & Financial POLICIES of Hungary, factually has placed the country of Hungary, in the “Black Hole” – the “ill-fated” place it is to-day.
Hungary, an “ageing” population of just over 9.6 million, that deaths per month over new born, in the (14) years under the Orban – Fidesz Government, continue – that deaths per month outweigh new born.
Statistical data – that has “substance of fact” – that reveals over 3 million Hungarians live in POVERTY.
Victor M. Orban – personally is on the Putin pay roll of which Hungary receives NOTHING.
The European Union – N.A.T.O the “Labour” Government of Great Britain & Northern Ireland, the United States of America – global country’s of DEMOCRACY, they KNOW – the Orban agenda.
Orban, the country he holds prim ministership of – Hungary – who are there Partners that continue to GROW into relationships in trade and “other” arrangements ?
Russia & China – that are ;
Dictatorships and Governed, under Laws of Communism.
Orban, it remains he is in “Quick Sand” and the more he TRIES to save himself, the character, the ego of the individual, the “luggage” he carries, paints CLEARER pictures of his DESTRUCTABLE efforts to destroy DEMOCRACY.
Is this visit to Putin, just another act of DEFIANCE, rebellion – the lack of respect or support to the European Union by Orban ?
Lets wait & see – what HAPPENS.
Would the European Union have the “Guts” to Sanction, or Impeach – Victor M. Orban ?
Orbans roll in ADVOCACY in any capacity with Russia – Dangerous / Explosive.
Orban – their WILL never as long as he is PERMITTED in any roll especially as President of the European Union – laughable in it-self, be NUETRALITY “played out” by Orban in dealing/communicating with Putin, Russia.
Distate the word MOLE – but could Orban – be in the meaning Politically used of this word ?
Orban – Varga, the Fidesz Government what THEY have factually DELIVERED to Hungary, its place of a Catastrophe.
