Hungarian foreign minister condemns Kamala Harris for labeling Orbán an autocratic dictator
Hungarian Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó has strongly criticised US Vice President Kamala Harris for her comments regarding Prime Minister Viktor Orbán. Speaking to the Russian state news agency RIA Novosti, Szijjártó expressed his indignation:
“First of all, this is outrageous. It’s unacceptable to speak about my Prime Minister in such a manner. It shows a complete lack of respect for him and the Hungarian people,” he said.
During an interview on Wednesday, Kamala Harris, a Democratic presidential candidate, was asked about Donald Trump’s relationships with various world leaders, including President Vladimir Putin, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, Chinese President Xi Jinping, and North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un. In response, Kamala Harris described them as:
“Dictators, autocrats, and people who could rightly be called killers.”
For several days, the Hungarian government refrained from officially responding to the remarks. This delay was in part due to Szijjártó’s busy schedule, as he was visiting Russia for the 11th time since the outbreak of the war, attending the International Gas Forum.

However, Szijjártó has now addressed the issue.
“We have always shown respect towards the American people and expect the same respect in return. Such statements reflect an utter lack of respect, which is unacceptable, especially between allies,” Szijjártó told RIA Novosti.
When asked whether Harris’s comments would affect Hungarian-American relations, Szijjártó warned that if she were to become the next president, it would not bode well for the future of bilateral relations.
Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, along with Minister Szijjártó and the rest of the Orbán government, offered their full support to Donald Trump both during and before his campaign, prompting accusations of the Hungarian government interfering in the US election. Despite this, the Orbán administration frequently cautions other countries against meddling in Hungary’s internal affairs. It is also noteworthy that while the Hungarian government deems it crucial to maintain ties with Putin due to Russia’s global influence, the Biden administration, one of the world’s most powerful governments, has repeatedly clashed with and openly criticised the US President.
