Vance’s visit could come shortly before the elections in Hungary and would signal political support for Orban.
US Vice President J.D. Vance plans to visit Hungary in the coming days to show support for Prime Minister Viktor Orban ahead of a tense parliamentary election, Reuters reports , citing sources familiar with the preparations for the trip.
According to information, Vance’s visit may take place shortly before the elections in Hungary, scheduled for April 12, and will be a signal of political support for Orban from Washington.
According to sources, Viktor Orban, who has ruled the country for more than 15 years, is now facing one of the most difficult electoral tests of his entire reign. According to polls, his Fidesz party is 14% behind the opposition Tisza party, led by politician Peter Magyar.
The planned trip by the US vice president will be a continuation of active contacts between the Trump administration and the Hungarian leadership, especially against the backdrop of US Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s visit to Budapest in February, who stressed the importance of Orbán’s leadership for American interests.
At the same time, as the publication reports, the timing of Vance’s visit remains uncertain and may change due to the tense international situation, in particular the conflict in the Middle East between the US, Israel, and Iran.

Fuck him! I’m agsinst the Germany-dominated EU, but prefer members that fight the EU only and not our ally Ukraine. WanZe will soon witness Orban’s complete defeat.
Orbanazi is still at 39%, the same level for 2 months now.

You gotta be pretty desperate to have someone like Mr. Makeupman the couch humper come to support your lost cause.
Hmmm. I wonder if Hungarians feel the same way about Trump as most of Europe, this could be a great strategy for Orban’s opposition.
I agree with all three of the above comments. Orban is toast, and not too soon. The sooner DJT is toast, the better, him and his entire entourage of suck-ups and clowns. Orban is a total somar.
