“Viktor Orbán has done a tremendous job in so many different ways,' the president said during a joint press conference.
President Donald Trump praised the controversial prime minister of Hungary, Viktor Orbán, on Monday, telling reporters that Orbán has done a good job protecting his country from an influx of immigrants.
“People have a lot of respect for this prime minister. He’s a respected man. I know he’s a tough man, but he’s a respected man. And he’s done the right thing, according to many people on immigration. You look at some of the problems that they have in Europe that are tremendous because they’ve done it a different way than the prime minister,” Trump later said when asked about democratic backsliding in Hungary.
“Appalling treatment and labyrinthine asylum procedures are a cynical ploy to deter asylum seekers from Hungary’s ever more militarized borders. Against the backdrop of a toxic referendum campaign, poisonous anti-refugee rhetoric is reaching fever pitch,” Dalhuisen continued. “We are proud to stand with the United States in fighting against illegal migration, on terrorism and to protect and help the Christian communities all around the world,” Orbán said during his meeting with Trump on Monday.
