The Trump Tornado: Bringing Russia Closer to the West.

Hungary's leader, Viktor Orbán, believes that if the war in Ukraine ends, the United States will help Russia rejoin the global economy. He also thinks Russia will be allowed back into European security and energy systems.

Orbán believes this would be good for Hungary's economy and is a chance for peace. He praised Trump for talking to Putin about ending the war, saying Trump wants peace.

Orbán thinks Trump's approach to Russia is changing how the Western world thinks. He calls this change the 'Trump tornado' and says it's happening faster than expected.

Unlike many European countries, Hungary still relies on Russian oil and gas, even after Russia invaded Ukraine. Hungary has also opposed European Union sanctions on Russia's energy industry.

Orbán believes the European Union will fail if energy prices don't go down. He thinks the EU will collapse on its own if it continues on its current path.
