Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said talks and meetings between US and Hungarian leaders could be considered as "part of normal life" considering that the US and Hungary are involved in the same fight for civilisation in order to save the West.
During a joint press conference with North Macedonia's counterpart Hristijan Mickoski on Tuesday, PM Orbán said that talks held between Hungary's prime minister and the US president should not be news anymore because "that's what generally happens when it becomes necessary". He added that it similarly had no special news value if the Hungarian foreign minister met his US counterpart.
Cooperation between them is not simply based on tactical or economic interests, but has a deeper foundation: "we are involved in a fight for civilisation, with progressives on one side and patriots on the other".
PM Orbán said that ever since the patriots had won in the US and attempts of destabilisation had strengthened in central Europe, with Serbia, Slovakia and Hungary being targeted. The global financial and political "machinery" that had previously occupied the US government, Brussels and a few European member states had to be "pushed out" from Hungary, PM Orbán said, adding that he was planning to complete the last battles with the Soros network by Easter.
