“ The chief of staff of the Prime Minister of Hungary, Gergey Guijas, announced that Viktor Orbán will meet with US President Donald Trump at the White House on November 7. Source: “European Truth” with reference to Index Details: Guijas said that the Hungarian Prime Minister should meet with Donald Trump in the White House on November 7. This is a day earlier than the date that was previously unofficially known to the media. The official noted that negotiations on a number of issues have been ongoing between the Hungarian and American sides for a long time and the purpose of the visit will be to reach agreements on cooperation in the energy, military, economic and financial spheres. “The meeting will provide an opportunity for the two leaders to exchange views on possible ways to achieve peace and discuss an action plan that will lead to an American-Russian meeting and, as a result, an end to the Russian-Ukrainian war,” Orban’s chief of staff added. One of the pressing issues during the meeting will likely be the issue of Hungary’s purchase of Russian energy resources, which it does not want to give up. We will remind: As you know, the US president expects Europe’s complete rejection of Russian oil and gas. Recently, he introduced sanctions against the companies “Rosneft” and “Lukoil”. After that, Orbán said that his government was working to circumvent the sanctions. The Hungarian government is trying to convince the US administration that its landlocked status leaves it no choice but to rely on Russian oil. Hungarian officials claim that they cannot solve this problem, despite the existence of an alternative oil pipeline connecting Hungary to the Adriatic Sea through Croatia – as they are reminded of in European capitals.”, — write: www.pravda.com.ua
