Vance stumps for Orbán in Hungary

The two-day visit is a clear signal of the Trump administration's support for its closest ideological ally in Europe, who is currently trailing in the polls.

During a joint press conference, Vance praised Orbán as a 'role model' for the continent and a defender of Western civilization.

The visit was briefly overshadowed by a leaked phone call transcript in which Orbán allegedly offered Vladimir Putin his assistance 'in any way possible.' Despite the controversy, Vance remains confident that Hungary's leadership will continue to align with the administration's global vision.
