The planned Trump–Putin summit in Budapest has exposed how modern diplomacy is waged through information warfare. Leaks, denials, and anonymous sources have flooded the media, as Brussels and Kyiv intensify efforts to block the meeting—fearing that a deal might emerge outside their control.
US President Donald Trump has explained why Budapest was chosen as the venue for his upcoming peace talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin, praising Hungary as strong, stable, and safe. Trump said that both he and Putin ‘like Viktor’, describing him as ‘a very good host’.
Budapest may soon join the ranks of historic diplomatic cities as US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin plan to meet there for peace talks on Ukraine. Analyst Anton Bendarjevskiy says the summit could become Hungary’s most significant foreign policy milestone in decades.
Hungary’s capital will host the next Trump–Putin summit on Ukraine, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán confirmed on Thursday. The talks aim to revive negotiations stalled since August and come just as Zelenskyy pushes Washington for long-range Tomahawk missiles to strike deep inside Russia.
Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said Hungary is globally recognized for its commitment to peace, following his attendance at the Gaza ceasefire signing in Sharm el-Sheikh. He also announced an upcoming meeting with US President Donald Trump to discuss economic and political cooperation.
Following his breakthrough Gaza peace deal, US President Donald Trump now seeks to replicate the success in Ukraine. Ahead of his Friday meeting with Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Trump remains confident he can broker an end to the war—even as Kyiv pushes for Tomahawk missiles and Moscow warns of escalation.
The Trump administration has launched its long-awaited crackdown on Antifa, opening FBI investigations and contacting victims of Antifa-linked violence. Amid the pressure, Rutgers University professor and Antifa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook author Mark Bray—dubbed ‘Dr Antifa’ by students—has reportedly fled the United States for Europe.
US President Donald Trump has endorsed Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán for the 2026 parliamentary election, expressing full confidence that he will outperform his 2022 result. Speaking at the Gaza peace deal signing in Egypt, Trump called Orbán ‘fantastic’ and said the US stands ‘100 per cent behind’ Hungary’s leader.
Viktor Orbán will join world leaders in Sharm El Sheikh for the signing of the historic Israel–Hamas peace deal brokered by Donald Trump. The Hungarian prime minister hailed the breakthrough as proof that ‘common-sense, pro-peace forces’ can prevail globally—from Gaza to Ukraine.
‘Had Trump been a Democrat, he would have won the Nobel Peace Prize. It is nothing short of a scandal that he did not win it this year.’
