“Telephone conversation with former U.S. President Donald Trump,” reads the caption of a photograph of Orban holding a telephone receiver.

In 2018, Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto spoke in an interview with RT about how the US policy towards his country had changed under the rule of Donald Trump.

According to him, the Hungarian and US authorities then had "similar views on many issues."

As US Ambassador to Hungary David Kornstein noted, Donald Trump considers Viktor Orban a strong leader.
