U.S. President Donald Trump has successfully persuaded Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán to moderate his opposition to Ukraine’s European Union membership. According to sources familiar with the discussions, the American administration has expressed optimism that the impasse regarding Ukraine’s accession could be resolved within months, given the diplomatic pressure being applied to Budapest.
The Hungarian leader has consistently voiced objections to Ukraine’s EU integration efforts in recent years, though no official statement has yet confirmed any shift in his government’s position. The development marks a significant diplomatic breakthrough as European leaders work to advance Ukraine’s European aspirations amid ongoing regional tensions.
