Today Radio Schuman digs into current relations between Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán and the newly re-elected US president Donald Trump with Gabor Tanacz, Euronews correspondent in Budapest.
Orbán was been an early supporter of Trump, and the two leaders met last month at Mar-a-Lago. Although Trump once mistakenly confused Orbán with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, he has described Orbán as “one of the strongest leaders anywhere in the world.”
Many officials in Brussels anticipate that Orbán will serve as Trump’s key interlocutor on European affairs. However, at Trump’s inauguration ceremony last night, Giorgia Meloni emerged as the most prominent EU leader in attendance. The Hungarian leader was in Budapest yesterday, where he delivered a speech reflecting on his country’s recent presidency of the EU.
We also take a look at today's European Parliament debates and a meeting between migration European Commissioner Magnus Brunner and the president of the Canary Islands' regional government, Fernando Clavijo.
