Hungary’s Orbán Predicts That ‘Trump Tornado’ Will Bring Peace in Europe and Re-Insert Russia in the International Community

When Conservative champion Viktor Orbán goes on Hungarian national radio to say that US President Donald J. Trump will bring Russia back to the international community, it’s not exactly a first, because Trump himself makes no secret out of it.

Watch: Trump says ‘it was a mistake’ to take Russia away from the G8.

Trump is absolutely right. Russia was expelled from the G8 for annexing Crimea—an action taken in response to Joe Biden greenlighting a coup against Ukraine’s democratically elected government. Given the circumstances, it was a pretty restrained response.pic.twitter.com/nwsHv4dnGG

But what makes the set of Orbán predictions so amazing is the realization of just how much of a cheerleader he is when it comes to the wider peace between America and Russia.

The Hungarian PM believes that the Trump administration will reconnect Russia with the economies and energy networks of Western countries after the peace in Ukraine.

Associated Press reported:

“In comments on state radio, Viktor Orbán said Trump had initiated a comprehensive shift in approach among Western nations to numerous issues, including Russia’s war, and Trump’s recent efforts to negotiate an end to the conflict would result in Moscow being drawn back into the Western fold.”

“’If the American president makes peace, if an agreement is made, I think Russia will be reintegrated into the world economy, reintegrated into the European security system, and even European energy’, said Orbán, who is close to Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin. ‘This will give the Hungarian economy a huge boost. It’s a big opportunity. We gain a lot in peace’.”

The beginning of high-level peace negotiations between Trump’s and Putin’s teams also meant, the Prime Minister thinks, that the US-led effort to isolate the Russian leader is a thing of the past.

“’The United States has initiated a change that puts the whole Western world’s system of arguments, value system, and way of thinking on a new track’, he said.”

‘This process is progressing much faster than many people thought. We call this the Trump tornado’.”

Another Orbán prediction: the EU – that he once called ‘ A Contemporary Parody of the Soviet Union’ would ‘fall apart’ if energy prices across the bloc were not brought down.

“’I personally became convinced in 2010, 2011 that the European Union was done for’, he said. ‘If the Germans and the French do not figure something out and put the European Union on a new trajectory, then its days are numbered. There is no need to leave it, it will fall apart by itself if it goes on like this’.”
