The world is astonished: Trump may meet Putin in Hungary

Vladimir Dzhabarov, First Deputy Chair of the Federation Council Committee on Foreign Affairs and a Senator of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, believes Hungary would be ideal for President Trump and Putin to meet and discuss how to end the ongoing bloody conflict in Ukraine. According to Trump, Putin asked for the meeting.
Orbán cabinet believes Trump will bring peace to Ukraine
President Trump said during the election campaign that he would put an end to the ongoing violent conflict in Ukraine in no time if elected. As Trump’s inauguration draws near, it seems he will be able to meet that promise since he said President Putin asked for a meeting, although he did not specify what topics they would discuss or when that may happen. Trump only said that the meeting is now being set up.
According to Blikk, a Hungarian tabloid, they may meet in Budapest, Hungary, or at least that is what Vladimir Dzhabarov, First Deputy Chair of the Federation Council Committee on Foreign Affairs and a Senator of Russia also serving as the Representative of the legislative (representative) authority of the Jewish Autonomous Region, said in an interview.
The Hungarian government is looking forward to Trump’s inauguration. Orbán endorsed Trump back in 2015, making him the first country leader to do so. Before the 2024 election campaign, Trumpist Republican politicians regularly travelled to Hungary, took part in different conferences, CPACs, etc. (more about the – financial – background of their bromance in THIS article). We covered yesterday that Orbán’s chief spin doctor, Árpád Habony, regularly travelled to Florida to network with the Trump team. He also worked e.g. in the Georgian campaign for the pro-Russia Georgian Dream movement.
Hungary spent a lot of money on creating and improving links with the Trump team
Orbán regularly said during the election campaign that Trump is the only pro-peace candidate for the presidency and all who want to bring peace to Ukraine should endorse, support, and vote for him. Since the Hungarian government has been accusing the Hungarian opposition of being pro-war for years, the fight for the White House became a crucial domestic issue in Hungary.
Because of the Orbán-Trump “bromance” and Orbán’s smooth relationship with Putin, Budapest can be a good place for the two leaders to meet. However, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told the Russian press that the USA has not yet officially asked for a meeting, which is unsurprising since its president will still be Biden for eight more days, who would not like to meet with Putin.
Trump may meet Putin in Hungary, Russian Senator says
Meanwhile, Senator Dzhabarov told a journalist in an interview that Hungary could be an ideal venue for a Trump-Putin summit. He believes PM Orbán could guarantee the safety of the two world leaders. He added the two parties should meet on “neutral” ground. Before, Finland could have been a perfect place, but they joined NATO and became very aggressive towards Russia. He did not mention in the interview that Hungary is also a NATO member state.

Dzhabarov said the two world leaders should meet because there are lots of questions they need to discuss. In the last four years, the Russian-American relationship deteriorated, so they must discuss. He added, however, that nobody can say when such a summit could be organised.
Donald Trump appointed Keith Kellogg as his special envoy for Ukraine and Russia in November. Kellogg said Trump aimed to find a solution to the war in Ukraine in his first 100 days in power.
Before, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico expressed his country’s readiness to provide a platform for negotiations between Moscow and Kyiv. “If it comes to that – why not”, Putin evaluated the offer in December.

It should be labelled as the Budapest World Asshole Summit 2025 presided over by Orban Viktor.
And your comment should be labelled as Larry’s Comment is the World’s Asshole Comment 2025, presided over by Larry.
In CALMNESS – ORDERLY, never giving the impression we are the AGGRESSORS – the use of, under rightful practice of DEMOCRACY in SOLIDARITY, let us MARCH to-gether, in our cities, in our villages – in DEMONSTRATING our Disapproval of any such “proposed” or other meetings associated with the name Putin / Russia and Trump, on the lands of Hungary.
Millions of Hungarians know and accept, we have been “Sold Off” tp Putin’s Russia, that Orban, his Fidesz Government, are GOFERS to Putin’s Russia.
Hungarians – we remain, as we WRONGFULLY are in millions, playing an on-going DAMAGEING passive ROLE, in the Putin – Orban – friendship, that as a country, has placed Hungary, growing in reputation, throughout Europe and Globally, that as a country Hungary, will become sooner than later FULLY – under Communistic Rule and a Dictatorship regime.
THIS possibility of Putin & Trump and Orban – meeting in Hungary, the “Fall Out” even what will transpire prior to if its HELD, the ramifications on Hungary, by countrys of DEMOCRACY – will be DEVASTATIONAL.
BLAME – simple it ALL falls back on the name of Victor Mihaly. Orban – for the erosive state of Hungary as I write, and the worsening of the state of the country on, from this present point in time, that represents a cataclysmic DISASTER.
SOLIDARITY – objection, opposing in Calmness and Orderly – a MUST by Hungarians.
Larry is still angry that he’s been fired from every marketing job he ever had because his slogans and catch phrases were always a total flop.
I doubt that such a meeting will happen in Budapest. Hungary is signatory to the International Court. That court has issued a warrant for Putin’s arrest. Aside from that “technicality” ……another Budapest Memorandum? Come on, Man! NATO won’t look kindly on Putin being hosted in Hungary either.
If it happens at all, it’s reasonable to think such a meeting would be held in an Internationally recognized country like Switzerland. Yes, yes,,, I know. Switzerland is also signatory to the International Court of Justice. In fact, all of the Internationally recognized neutral countries of the world are signatory to the International Court of Justice. That narrows the list down to The United States, China, India and Russia.
Who writes this crap- they are meeting to stop the killing- you stupid f-ing jerk. Some how its a bromance if they meet. Your romance with your A— has fogged up your brain – little hungary and – Orban has met with all the world leaders to discuss ending the conflict and you mock it. NEWS FLASH- the US is 10 times the power of Russia and the Trump should meet with Putin in Moscow.. the EU -US and Nato have been screwing around in Ukraine long before Russia had enough. Who do you think set up the revolt in 2014. The vice president and his son were big players in country- how could you be right next to country and not have a clue?
Putin could stop the killing by stopping his invasion. He is the 21st century Hitler and Orban is the 21st century bombastic Mussolini. These two are trying day and night to convince you that black is white and white is black and only fools buy into the Russian propaganda they put out. Orban has been funding the Russian military from day one with his expanded purchases of Russian oil and gas. He blocked Finnish and Swedish accession into NATO for two years undermining European security. A-hole Orban struts around like an idiot claiming that he is pro-peace. I hope to God that Hungary suffers like Ukraine does because Hungary deserves it for doing all it can to help Putin. Imagine if Hungary was invaded and a neighbouring country did all it can to block all military and economic assistance for its’ defence.
I will reword that and say not that I wish the same fate as Ukraine but that Hungary deserves it.
12th of January, marks the day of remembrance of the Don Disaster and the downfall of the Hungarian Second Army on the Eastern Front in the winter of 1943. In Hungary, this day is commemorated by many, especially within the Hungarian Armed Forces. This year marks the 80th anniversary of these fateful events at the Don Front in January 1943.
As the Soviet forces attacked, the weakened Hungarian forces fought proudly and bravely against an overwhelming enemy. Just like Ukraine has done for several years now and Ukraine has been able to make serious damage to Russian army. But Ukraine still needs help to defend themselves.
Of the 200,000 soldiers and 50,000 forced laborers the battles of January 1943 led to 100,000 killed, 35,000 wounded and 60,000 prisoners of war. These 60,000 Hungarian prisoners of war faced an uncertain future and only 40,000 would ever return to Hungary, the last of which returned as late as 1955.
The soldiers who never returned gave their uttermost, they gave their lives for Hungary! We will remember them!
Russia is Hungary´s enemy, Russia is the enemy of freedom of speech, freedom of humanity, freedom of everything. Russia only wants to invade on conquer and rule by aggressive decree. Russia will never stop unless they are stopped by force. Shame on those who bow before Russia and are against supporting the fight for defending freedom from the evil imperialist Russian invasion. Maybe, if the west would have fully supported Hungary in 1943, Soviet Union would not have invaded Hungary.
They’re not meeting to ‘stop the killing’. The whole fantasy here is clearly to capitulate to Russia and stop the war on Putin’s terms, and delusional Orban thinks this can be spun into ‘peacemaking’ which he is the guardian angel of. Thankfully, the world is smarter than his electorate. And Trump would only stop a war on his terms, not Putin’s.
Putin would surely like to orchestrate a get-together with his two greatest puppets in order to save face after his disastrous war campaign, but I’m afraid he will be disappointed at how independent, inconsistent a mind Trump really is.
Also, it will never happen in Hungary, as much as you pro-Putin idiots would love it – as a NATO country, Putin will be either promptly arrested or assassinated, and there is no way for Orban to protect him. He’s not really strong lol, he’s kind of a loser, and Putin doesn’t actually trust him. No, like with the Kim, Trump might have to choose a far flung location to meet with Putin, but I doubt it even comes to that.
Americans simply, by vast majority, hate Putin, and Trump is very absorbed in himself and his legacy. He might test the waters, and there will be more ‘diplomacy’ than there currently is, but there will be no shining meeting on a hill with Orban beaming between Trump and Putin, shaking hands and Ukraine subservient in the background, agreeing to give up their land. This is a gross fantasy in any case, but thanks for floating it.
It’s far past the time to end the Ukranian War. Orban’s Budapest is a perfect place for the meeting. The Biden State Department holdovers who broke the past international agreements, caused this war, and certain Biden/Democratic money launders need to be left out in the cold from that meeting.
I believe that PM Viktor Orban can bring Russia and USA together for PEACE. Mr. Orban is a man of vision, and has a strategic view of the international situation.
