Donald Trump “will not give a penny” to Ukraine if he is re-elected US president, the far-right Hungarian prime minister, Viktor Orbán, said after a controversial meeting with Trump in Florida.

“He will not give a penny in the Ukraine-Russia war,” Orbán told state media in Hungary on Sunday. “Therefore, the war will end, because it is obvious that Ukraine can not stand on its own feet.”

According to Orbán, Trump has a “detailed plan” to end the Ukraine war, which began two years ago when Russia invaded.

The US and its allies have supported Ukraine but further US aid is held up in Congress, having passed the Senate with bipartisan support only to be blocked in the House, which is controlled by far-right Trump allies.

        I do not know, because I do not trust anything that comes from his mouth just as I don’t trust anything coming out of Trump’s mouth.

          Sure… acting like you “can’t know because you don’t trust what they say” might sound intelligent, but it’s pretty ridiculous given Trump has SHOWN YOU FOR 4 YEARS what he plans to do. Become a dictator with the help of other dictators.

            Yeah I don’t mean that I do not take it seriously. I of course do. But Orban is not a reliable source of information imo. That’s all I’m saying.
