Trump explicitly calls on Hungarians to vote for Orban and his party in parliamentary elections
US President Donald Trump has published a direct appeal to the citizens of Hungary to vote for the country’s incumbent Prime Minister Viktor Orban and his party in the parliamentary elections in April. Trump posted his address on his own social network, Truth Social.
"The highly respected Prime Minister of Hungary, Viktor Orban, is a truly strong and influential leader who has a proven track record of achieving phenomenal results. He fights tirelessly for his great country and people and sincerely loves them, just as I do for the United States of America," Trump wrote, noting that thanks to Orban, "relations between Hungary and the United States reached new heights of cooperation and impressive achievements during my administration."
"I was proud to ENDORSE Viktor for re-election in 2022 and I am honored to do so again. Election Day is April 12, 2026. Hungary: GET OUT AND VOTE FOR VIKTOR ORBAN. He is a true friend, a fighter, and a WINNER, and has my complete and unconditional support for re-election as Prime Minister of Hungary – VIKTOR ORBAN WILL NEVER LET THE GREAT PEOPLE OF HUNGARY DOWN. I AM WITH HIM ALL THE WAY! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP," Trump urged in the final part of his address.
