Need to make Ukraine pay back everything they were given too.
https://www.politico.eu/article/viktor-orban-donald-trump-wont-give-a-penny-to-ukraine-if-elected/Donald Trump will totally stop funding Ukraine if he wins the U.S. election in November, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said following a meeting between the right-wing figureheads.
“He will not give a penny in the Ukraine-Russia war,” Orbán told Hungarian state media Sunday. “Therefore, the war will end, because it is obvious that Ukraine can not stand on its own feet.”
The longtime allies met last Friday at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida, a summit which was lambasted by U.S. President Joe Biden.
In an interview following the meeting — during which Trump and Orbán discussed “a wide range of issues” — the Hungarian prime minister praised the Republican front-runner as a “man of peace” who would bring an end to the all-out war in Ukraine, which Russian President Vladimir Putin has been waging since February 2022.
“If the Americans don’t give money and weapons, along with the Europeans, the war is over,” he said. “And if the Americans don’t give money, the Europeans alone can’t finance this war. And then the war is over.”
Trump, a confirmed NATO-skeptic, is dominating the Republican presidential primary, and currently leads Democratic incumbent Biden in polls across several key swing states.
According to Orbán, Trump has a “detailed plan” to end the war in Ukraine, which marries with Hungary’s interests. Orbán, who has maintained contact with Putin amid Russia’s full-scale invasion, has repeatedly said he is opposed to sending more money and weapons to Kyiv.
The Hungarian prime minister also recently endorsed Trump’s bid to return to the White House this year, solidifying a yearslong bromance.
