Hungarian government certain that Trump will bring peace

Change language:

The re-election of former US President Donald Trump is the only “hope” for stabilising a fragile and increasingly chaotic international security situation, Hungarian Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó told Fox News Digital in an interview aired on Thursday.

“We do believe that actually the game changer here can be the US presidential election, in case President Trump wins,” Szijjártó said, referring specifically to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. “Because knowing Trump, I think it’s absolutely possible — absolutely likely — that with two phone calls he can end this conflict,” he added.

“No one else can do so,” he insisted. “I think only President Trump has the hope and our hope is all in President Trump to do this.”

When asked whether that could be understood as a preference for a second Trump administration, Szijjártó responded by saying that “we are not Americans, so we cannot say we prefer this or that.”

“What we can definitely say is the following: Politics is based on experience, and we have a clear experience about the term of President Trump in office, and we have clear experience from the terms when the Democrats were there,” he said.

“From the aspect of the US-Hungary relations and from the aspect of the global security situation, when it comes to the US-Hungary relations, it’s obvious that during [the term of] President Trump, these relations have been on the top — best ever,” the minister added.

Under the presidency of Donald Trump everything was under control

He said that under the presidency of Donald Trump “everything was under control.” “Since President Trump has left office, the whole global security situation is deteriorating, so, I mean, these are experiences.”

  1. If Trump can bring peace with two phone calls, why isn’t he putting into action his plan right away? Doesn’t he care about the Ukrainians and Russians perishing in the meantime? If it’s so simple, there’s absolutely no reason to delay, in fact, success in this area could swing the election for him. Do it, Don, show us.

  2. Am I the only that thinks Szijjarto’s hair style (if you can call it that) is an embarrassment for someone of his office?

  3. Szijjarto’s hairstyle is certainly strange. the F.M. is probably so busy, he has to chop his own hair and that is the best he can do.

  4. as some commentors has written before, “what if” trump wont win? do Fidesz have a plan B? do you want to pop out EU and NATO? i hope so

  5. “Everyone knows that any kind of direct confrontation between NATO and Russia would mean an outbreak of third world war immediately, and we have joined NATO to enhance our security and not to make ourselves exposed.”

    This sounds so hungarian: “i want the benefits but i dont want the obligations”

    Yes NATO is a DEFENCE alliance, BUT, if is attacked, they will go to war. It does not matter how “pro-peace” is Orban. They should know the rules before joining such kind of groups.

  6. Dear hungarians friends! Please remember the wise words of Balazs Orban, in case of attack, Surrender! cause you are a sovereign country (a sentence we have heard again and again :D!)

  7. Russia will not attack Hungary. Trading in peace is more profitable. Jose, you do not give the Russian people the credit that they deserve.

  8. Dear Maria, i guess you are just getting older and older. Maybe your cognitive sense is just getting worse with age as this happens to everyone. Please tell me what kind of credit do Putin deserver? i am all ears

  9. The media in Budapest just can’t set the facts straight. The twice elected goverment of Ukraine was ousted by the CIAwit help of the Nazi militia in Ukraine.
    I feel bad for the fools who think otherwise. I love the first comment. former president trump hasn’t been in office for almost 4 years. And the opposition has been out to destroy him since he took office we now have Stalinjustice with phony charges trying to put him in jail and two attempts on his life. If Orban had the support of the EU, he could bring peace too. B Korea is a Nike power and was shooting rockets off theeatning Japan , S Korea along with others in the area. Trump ended it in a matter of weeks. Unlike Ukraine , Japan and S Korea are some of the most successful in the western world. All this with N Korea backing by China. No one in the EU could do what Orban when met with all the main players for peace
