US president says he wasn’t ‘involved’ in Hungarian election despite JD Vance’s trip to Budapest ahead of polls
Meanwhile, on the EU’s side, there is a growing expectation that the new Hungarian administration will drop Viktor Orbán’s veto blocking the €90bn loan for Ukraine.
The EU’s defence commissioner, Andrius Kubilius, remarked today that “a new wind is blowing” in Hungary, as he stressed the EU is “ready to implement the loan as soon as we get the green light.”
“I explained it clearly to her as well, and we have made it clear before, that we can only comply with conditions that are good for Hungarian people, good for Hungarian businesses and, in general, for our country.“
