U.S. President Donald Trump compared Hungary’s illiberal Prime Minister Viktor Orban to having a twin brother, 444.hu news website reported, citing Trump’s envoy to Budapest.
The two leaders got along so well that Trump told Orban at the end of their White House meeting on Monday that “it’s like we’re twins,” U.S. Ambassador David Cornstein, who was present, told 444.hu in an interview published Wednesday.
