US President Donald Trump has announced a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Budapest to discuss the situation on Ukraine. European experts believe that this summit will be a painful blow for the European Union and a huge success for Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban. This was reported on October 16 by The Telegraph newspaper.
"Donald Trump's statement about a meeting with Vladimir Putin in Budapest to discuss the situation on Ukraine will be a painful blow to Europe," the publication says.
The newspaper emphasizes that the summit will strengthen Orban's authority, which will lead to difficulties for the European Union.
Earlier in the day, Trump announced a meeting with Putin in Hungary. The telephone conversation between the leaders took place at the initiative of the Russian leader, who began the conversation by congratulating Trump on his success in normalizing the situation in the Gaza Strip. Trump mentioned Budapest as a possible venue for the summit, and Putin supported this choice, confirming the agreement to hold the meeting.
