“Tomorrow [November 7], I will be in Budapest – at the summit of the European Political Community at the invitation of the Prime Minister of Hungary, and the President of the European Council, Charles Michel,” Zelenskyy said.
The President noted that this is already the fifth summit in this format. The first was in the Czech Republic, the second in Moldova, then in Spain and Great Britain. The head of state said that at the event, the leaders of the countries will discuss security challenges in Europe, as well as new opportunities for all partners.
“There will be a series of meetings, a series of agreements with European leaders,” he summarized, without revealing details.
On July 5, Orban went to Moscow to see Putin – after that, the Ukrainian president rejected the possibility of Hungary’s mediation.
Borrell criticized the trip of the Hungarian Prime Minister, saying that Hungary, which presides over the Council of the European Union, represents only its interests in international trips, and not the entire EU.
Orban stated the need for a new European strategy for Ukraine against the backdrop of Trump’s victory.

The Hungarian Prime Minister said that the victory of the Republicans “poses before us, European leaders, the question of whether Europe will be able to maintain military and financial support for Ukraine.”
“There are serious doubts about this, so a new European strategy will be needed,” he said, adding that the first steps in this could be taken on Thursday, November 7, at the summit of European leaders in Budapest.
The most difficult issue to be resolved, Orban called the fate of the 50 billion euro loan for Ukraine, which, according to the previous decision of the G7, will be financed jointly by the European Union and the United States.
Orbán said on November 3 that Europe will have to rethink its support for Ukraine if Trump is elected US president, as the continent “will not be able to bear the burden of war alone”.
On November 4, Politico wrote that if Trump wins the US elections, aid to Ukraine may stop immediately.
