US Vice President Vance departs for Hungary in support of OrbanWASHINGTON, United States, April 7, 2026 (AFP) - US Vice President JD Vance flew to Hungary Monday night to deliver Donald Trump's support to his ally, nationalist Prime Minister Viktor Orban, ahead of tightly contested parliamentary elections. Vance is scheduled to meet with Orban and also deliver a speech on "the rich partnership between the United States and Hungary," according to a statement from his office. His visit is a show of support for Orban in the final stretch before Sunday's elections. "I can say to you with confidence that President Trump is deeply committed to your success, because your success is our success," Rubio said during a joint press conference with Orban after their meeting. Orban is particularly aligned with the Trump administration on anti-migrant policies, which came to the fore in Hungary during the refugee crisis 10 years ago.
