October 18, 2025

HUNGARY'S nationalist prime minister Viktor Orban has celebrated his country’s status as the host of upcoming talks between US President Donald Trump and Russia's Vladimir Putin, a meeting where the two leaders are expected to discuss an end to the war in Ukraine.

Mr Trump announced his second meeting this year with Mr Putin on Thursday, a day before the US President was due to sit down with Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House yesterday.

A date for the meeting has not been set, but Mr Trump said it would take place in Hungary's capital, Budapest, and suggested it could happen in about two weeks.
