Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has said he is ready to host a meeting between US President Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin in Budapest, Hungary.
“The planned meeting between the US and Russian presidents is great news for peace-loving people around the world. We are ready!” Orbán wrote on social media on Thursday.
As reported, Trump spoke with Vladimir Putin on Thursday, calling it a very productive conversation, and announced the planned meetings—a personal meeting in Budapest and a meeting between advisers beforehand. He also said that during a planned meeting on Friday with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in the Oval Office, the parties will discuss this conversation with Putin “and much more.”
At the same time, Trump said that during the conversation with Putin, he devoted a lot of time to discussing “trade between Russia and the US after the end of the war with Ukraine.”
